Title: hydro force sprayer dilution?
Post by: Steve Chapman on February 09, 2008, 09:27:55 pm

Have decided to start using my hydroforce sprayer i obtained from woodbridge when getting the t/m over year or so ago  ::)

Does anyone know whats the best solution t use for general pre spraying and what dilution rate to use?

Its not adjustable in any way so presume it has a fixed rate?

I normally use prochem power burst for bad restaurant carpets and prespray gold for others in a pump sprayer, is it possible to use powder in the hydro force?


regards
steve

Hi steve,
              you need to get some colour coded metering tips for your sprayer,then it will automatically dilute the prespray for you, without the tips I think it dilutes 4 to 1.

                          all the best

cheers

in simple terms, how many scoops of power burst do i need to put in the 5 litre container? - i normally put 5 in the 5 litre pump sprayer, but i'm thinking it has to be a higher concentrate for the hydro force ?

My brain is a bit dead today, cant work it out ::)

3 prochem blue scoops per litre of whatever water it holds for powerburst into the inline sprayer.
(with yellow tip).
