Post by: stevegunn on September 19, 2007, 05:05:14 pm
Used it today on a really grubby suite I forgot how good this product was.Used prochems fabric restorer in the past think I'll revert back to the chemspec stuff even though it is double the price.

I used to use this stuff too Steve, and all the other products in the range with great results. Thinking back makes me wonder why did I stop using them. The answer is that I realised the thought of using those chemicals day in / day out would possibly not be beneficial to my health in the long run, which is why I sought out some greener safer alternatives. I bet you did the same thing but have now come full circle in search of the ideal cleaning detergent.

the guy i got the t.m. said he only used c.s. gear but ive never had anything to do with them if they work better surly you wont use as much ?? this way it may go towards them not being so much more in the long term ??

I use all of Chemspecs products ! infact I use little else, I find backup from the distributer is exellent Paul Dyson {Newcastle} he knows his stuff
You can penny pinch over the cost of carpet and upholstery cleaning chemicals as much as you like but you find it difficult to get a better chemical ! Just think for a second 10 kg of formula 90 £52.86 inc vat say 4 scoops in 40 litres of water to clean an average carpet , we would charge £75.00 ! payed for in one job ! and the rest is all proffit

Hi Stuart,
 I thought you were a new convert to m-power?

Hi steve ! no I did try M Power but I got mixed results with it so I just went back to Chemspec, I still can't get good results with micro splitters they are a bit hit and miss for me, so its back to good old chemspec and Prochem

Stuart - have you tried Nemisis Super from Restormate ?

I find it pretty good. Worth a shot.
