I find any micro-splitter will work all do the job (pureclean SPM chemspec dfc).

I personally cant tell the difference between all of them even if they are boosted or not.

Will use m-power but only for problem sofas (Urine).

Prochem fab restorer for me too. Add a little energiser when needed and mix in bucket etc apply with a scrunge sponge . Find this works better than spraying on.

Do you guys use fabric restorer on the whole suite ? I was always led to believe only use it on the worst parts. It's great stuff though so just wondering like  :)

I use fabric restorer on the whole of the suite, I mix 100ml to a 1500ml pump up normally two of them and have hot acid rinse in my tank, that way I get a good and stable ph and a good clean and if the customer wants the suit protected then I can apply it straight to the suit without the use of anything else

Never used fab restorer but always heard good things. Ive heard of people mixing it into a bucket rather than using as a pre spray....which method works best? Also does it always require acid rinse...?

Chemspec Heavy Duty Soil Lifter great for breaking up any head grease and chair arms.

I clean on average 3 a week and for the last  10ish years I've used either pure clean or some other MS  with a freshwater rinse.

You should try Fabric Restorer Mike!! :)
Title: Re: Upholstery pre spray
Post by: Darren O on November 26, 2014, 08:24:20 am
Always use fabric restorer sometimes add a bit of multi pro makes it more soapy when doing a minger.

I try and clean as close to PH neutral as possible so..

Spitfire advanced
HD soil lifter - on greasy arms and head marks
Bio Clean can also offer excellent results

Russ
why such a low ph ? Surely if you are rinsing and neutralising thats all that matters ?

It's just the way I like to Work Stu, sometimes indicator dyes can be problematic if you work too far away from the nuetral zone...
Spitfire when applied correctly works very well for me

Liquid High Heat is getting fantastic results on upholstery. Its acidic so no issues with bleeding or browning.
Title: Re: Upholstery pre spray
Post by: Russ Chadd on December 01, 2014, 06:40:02 pm
Agreed... Liquid high heat is a fab product... Never used it on upholstery though
Title: Re: Upholstery pre spray
Post by: Peter J Haigh on December 02, 2014, 09:16:45 pm
John - If using liquid high heat on upholstery, would you still be using it as a prespray and agitating or would you use it purely as a acid rinse when extracting ?
Title: Re: Upholstery pre spray
Post by: John Kelly on December 03, 2014, 08:24:01 am
It can be used both ways.
Title: Re: Upholstery pre spray
Post by: David Ware on December 03, 2014, 11:21:55 am
Another good addition about ''Liquid High Heat'' is its an encapsulations product so good for all rinsing

Does it dilute the same as liquid formula 90?

Post by: Simon@arenaclean on December 03, 2014, 11:31:16 pm
60ML in 20 litres it's good stuff
