Post by: ABLECLEAN on October 29, 2006, 09:08:42 pm
Hi Guys and Gals,
RESTORMATE say that they cannot keep up with demand for samples of this amazing MS!

Has anyone on the forum tried and tested this product?

Regards

Neo

I have a sample but still haven't got round to trying it. As soon as I do I'll report my findings on here.

  Yes


Just picked up an email from Matt Flewitt, ofCleansmart  Supplies  asking me to point out they do not stock this product.

And does not give out Free Samples.

Therefore all enquies  to Restormate.

Hey lads,
one thing i have noticed from reading the specs on both the new m-power & nemesis is that nemesis contains enzymes where as m-power does not? i can't comment on this new nemesis stuff as i am yet to use it but i have used m-power and must say it is pretty impessive stuff. I think i will have to give this nemesis ago before i decide which to order.

Nemesis does it again, customer had party one of her friends was sick over carpet and suite, white stains on biege carpet aerial washing powder had been used looked like bleach marks.Intial thought was it was ruined extracted with plain water marks still visable pre-sprayed with nemesis and agitated marks seem to disappear before my very eyes left for 10 minutes then extracted carpet like new.

Another one today was blood stains on a wool carpet from a toe injury the customer used a vax machine before I got there, pre sprayed blood seemed to disappear with just the pre spray.Customer just rang to thank me as I saved him his £500 bond.

Cannot get my head around how it works.In the past would have used an enzyme pre spray to counter act the vomit and blood now all products contain enzymes but the enzyme in nemesis is inactive so how does it work?

If the enzyme is inactive then why is it there in the first place  ???
Title: Re: Nemesis
Post by: stevegunn on November 21, 2006, 08:07:44 pm
I believe its plant based enzyme which is harmless

I can get M power to work on carpets but not upholstery and the other way around with Nemesis? must check my technique!!

But only had a sample of Nemesis so couldn't really do alot of testing.

Very good product.

The enzymes in Nemesis are a wetting agent and not active enzymes which digest dirt.

Shaun what dilution rate are you using on upholstery?
I beleive 50 -1 is the norm and 100 - 1 for carpets   strange !!! your finding results on carpets not as good on upholstery 
 To be honest i havnt really used nemesis on upholstery yet, but on carpets getting good results.

Ive used mpower for a week at the 120-1 dilution as suggested and let dwell for 10mins or longer and applied a heavier spray. 

To be honest its no better than normal MS and has let me down on several occasions esp on polypropolene. 

Not sure what Im doing wrong but the stains just dont vanish as some have described.

Are you sure?

Perhaps if you read the instructions out loud with a German accent it will work better  ;D

As i  understand it mark it doesnt work very well on polyprop carpets as the colliod has troble with the oil based fibre.

Post by: gwrightson on November 22, 2006, 06:02:37 pm
oops sorry Shaun, I thought you were reffering to nemesis in your reply, when you mentioned m.power

so I cant comment on mpower as not used

Geoff
Title: Re: Nemesis
Post by: John Kelly on November 22, 2006, 06:12:16 pm
I think the problem may be that the colloids need water to be effective. As the polyprop fibres are smooth it could be there is not enough solution clinging to the fibres enabling the dirt to transfer.
Polyprop fibres are inert and solutions will not react with them.

I read somewhere that the best polyprop pre sprays are the ones like Ultrapak renovate and fabric restorer, quite soapy but good.

A217 ultra pac is great for polyprops, never tried b108 fabric restorer its for upholstery but i guess someone has sprayed it on a polyprop and found it works!!

We would be going back a long time in cc folklore but did you live in the cheam area and work for a short time for paul matthews before starting up on your own and moving away at some point.

Well done Steve! Yup David worked with Paul Matthews and I moved down to chichester 18 years ago and started up down here. David Packed up and got into property and now lives in portugal while i`m still slogging away cleaning carpets. If I remember rightly, you used to live in Gander Green lane. Hope you are keeping nice and busy...

I think my website needs updating, i`ve been running a Hydramaster Max 450d for the last couple of years. Bane was good,quiet and reliable but not as powerful as the petrol/diesel machines.
I`m like you-stacked out with work at the moment and looking forward to christmas for a break!
What happened to Paul Matthews. Quite a character wasn`t he.
