Its a coliod cleaner similar to Nemisis. It needs a dwell time like a detergent and agitation helps.
Like all chemicals on the market some will work for your sytle of cleaning and others wont. Coloids are on the green side if thats what your into, its just a case of suck it and see, some you will get on with  some you wont.

I have used M-Power and Nemesis Super - results very similar.

Prochem Pure Clean - have used, same as above, but it being a powder you have to mix it with water snd this takes time for it to disolve etc.

Just got some Liquid Formula 90 so cannot comment on it yet.

M power and Nemesis are better on natural fibres IMO I think most will tell you the same.

Nemesis and M power produce very similar results or the same but Nemesis is much better value for money.As already been said work very well on natural fibres and protien stains,mixed results on other manmade fibres and poor on polyprop.

Mark, I have found it depends on the job.

I have tried m-power and nemesis but prefer microsplit from restormate.

No dwell time, needs moderate agitation, use as a spotter every day and is superb. Also use it for greasy marks on top cushions of upholstery 50/50 with water when prochems fabric restorer wont shift it, same on sofa arms. Excellent stuff.

Perhaps I'm using m-power or nemesis wrong but prefer old m/s where agitation is the key after no dwell.

Call me old fashioned!

All the best,
Jason.

Hi Jason
I use pure clean most of the time but the colloids definatley have there place on my shelf,especially if there is an odour problem before having to have to use specialized treatments, It is also an excellent product for cleaning probmatic rugs and i do get requests to use it as i advertise it on my website .

How do you apply the Nemesis Super?Do you need agitation on this?

Spray, agitate well, dwell
Set your mahine up during the dwell
before you start to extract, spray & agitate next section.

So can I agitate that with a bmd1000 150rpm and then extract with a ninja 400psi do I need to add any solution on the water tank of the ninja or just with water to extract?
Do you use anything to finish the job like supreme finish from ashbeys.

Thanks

How big an area are we normally doing?
If its fairly small area ie rooms in a house, why not just use a long handled carpet brush.
Gets the blood pumping round the body- its good for you!

One Step is excellent in my opinion. You can vary the concentration, to suit the level of soiling, and more predictable than others.

Thanks

Ive tried pure clean ,crystal green and dry blend ,but none of them compare to double clean,after a good prespay of multi pro ,left to dwell for ten mins.Really soiled and greasy carpets are treated to a spray of traffic clean neutralized with fibre and fabric rinse before extracting.A last resort for tough commercial carpets is hot power burst.Once again neutrali ze before extracting

I use Prochem Pure Clean.  Unlike the MPOWER that really only works on some natural fibres, Pure clean i have found works on just about all.  Yes it is a powder but to be honest it mixes SO EASY.

Hi Richie,

I'm using pure clean at the moment as well and have found it superb on all carpet types tried so far, with 5-10 mins dwell no agitation.

Only trouble is 8 scoops per litre in hyroforce sprayer takes 10 minutes to mix up 5 litres.

You using as a pre-spray or extraction agent or both?

Used Pure Clean today for the first time on a filthy polyprop.
Must say I was impressed, had crystal green on stand by as I though I
would have to use it. I didn`t.
Presprayed as recommended. Agitated with Envirodry. Rinsed as recommended.
I can see it working well with a bonnet but have yet to try.

I was telling the customer about the green issues and she said
" I couldn`t care less as long as my carpets clean"  ;D
Will continue to trial it, seems like a very good product.
Cheers
Rab

Next time you get a polyprop try pre-spraying with ultrapac renovate the results are amazing.

Yeah Mark.
But I`m trying to think green. We know there is a market. How big or how small?
I have no idea.
