Hi all hope your all well. What do u fellow members use as a pre spray for 80% of upholstery jobs u do? And what do u you as the rinse (in tank) I'm currently trying prochem products at the min. Please let me no what others use a pre sprays for upholstery on most jobs ect thanks

Alltec fabric

Prochem Pureclean, sometimes boosted with evans oxy powder and/or solvent booster. Extracted with either pureclean or acid rinse.
Used Ultimate master as a prespray again today though and it was good and very economical.

We use a micro splitter have used most of them out there and can't tell the difference.
We sometimes use a booster.
At the moment we are using chemspec DFC .
-
I use Alltec fabric cleaner and use a hand mitt to agitate on most fabrics and a microsplttetr on buffallo, etc, then extract with T/M
-
Ive only used fusion8 but i like it
i tend to rinse with d.i water only
-
using fabric restorer at the moment, very good stuff. Also today i tried some chemspec heavy duty soil lifter on some particularly
greasy dirty areas on a large three piece suit, and on four dining chairs which were very very solied, made an immediate impact and i was impressed, to put it mildly, made the job an absolute doddle!!!!
-
Tim I have a few suites next week and after doing one last week which I felt 'could have been better' I am tempted to try either of the two you mentioned. I know you said you just tried the chemspec, but if you had to buy one tomorrow- which one? And I assume you acid rinse on upholstery, not f90 powder like you use on carpets? (also going to order this)

I would use Mpower on dirty ones but find it takes to long to break down the oils and grease , it does but takes time .
shockwave is a awesome product (http://www.cleanitup.co.uk/smf/1449620004_970415_499862736754288_1722137986_n.jpg) (http://www.cleanitup.co.uk/smf/1449620021_10017_499862620087633_952988828_n.jpg)

yes i agree ! a product like shockwave is the way to go with these , i presume u know its about as traditional a detergent mix as you'll get . nothing to do with MS or anything like that ?
-
Hi Guys... i have some shockwave... whats the process you use here? as ive never tried shockwave before... :)
i have a suite cushion set to clean tomorrow :)
-
John , yes I know ,I also use f90 , I wasn't saying you had no work just that mixing chems is wasted time a bit like refining your own fuel.
James
after checking suite and it is suitable for sw then
Mix 15ml of sw in a litre of hand hot water ,
spray area to be cleaned agitate, and let it dwell 10 to 20 mins then extract with plain hot water repeat if its a really bad suite

If colloid cleaners were a bit faster acting I would use them all the time .
I find Mpower great on wool and a great problem solver for smells .
I did a full house of wool carpets and not a sign of that doggy odour when they were wet.
However I ran out and refilled word dfc105 and did the last carpet straight away the doggy smell was there .
And I've just done a shaggy rug that stank of old dog and it cured that at 80/1
