Title: Quat for cleaning
Post by: Mike Halliday on May 01, 2015, 06:44:14 am
Is this 'quat' ? As used for soft washing.

http://www.farmchem.co.uk/superquat-plus-25-litres--qac-detergent-sanitiser-152-p.asp

To be used for a spray and leave clean on a mildly  green  house side that has been rendered.  the owner does not want it pressure washing.

Any tips on its correct usage and precautions.

 what do you think of the price?  I was trying to find a information sheet on it to see it concentration but can't find one

Yes it would work….but it has some pretty unpleasant chemicals in it. The qauts content is relatively low around 6%.
There are better products.

No problem if you don't want to share any info, I'll do some  research on google......  if it's not too much of a trade secret....... if not 6% what strength quat should I be looking for?

Mike was it you I sold the Comet pump to?  If so its an ideal "soft wash" set up.

Yes, it's just sat in the unit so this might be a good use for it, I've also got a full set of WFP and an extendable pressure washer lance so think I could put together quite a good softwash set up.
