Title: Everday products
Post by: Steve Barnett (Carpet Care Plus) on February 24, 2008, 12:05:32 pm: Me again !

My next question is - I have only ever used Prochem products, usually Multipro for pre-spray and fibre and fabric for the tank. In this age of microsplitters can I get an idea of what you guys use on a daily basis for run of the mill cleaning (If such a thing exists)

Regards

Stev

Price wise they are very good 25l of champion is approx £35.00 their premium clean powder is also as if not better in my opinion than prochems double clean and cheaper.

M-Power from Solutions UK and
Nemesis Super from Restormate

I use both and very happy to do so.
Pretty "general purpose" and relatively safe.

I was in same boat as you regarding Prochem products ........... give me a bell as only in Cheam.

Pureclean is a pleasure to use and seriously boosts finish after microsplitter pre-treatment :o

Hi Chris,
So you pre-sprayed with a microsplitter, presume you agitate, dwell, then extract with Pure Clean in the water tank - is that correct?

Post by: absolutecleaning on February 25, 2008, 07:00:08 am: That is what I have also been doing for the last few jobs on synthetics.

Have you found it as effective on wool Chris?

Post by: Straker Cleaning on February 25, 2008, 12:53:38 pm: Just as effective ............. got some RX Spotter today so will try that tomorrow ;D

Post by: spencer davies on February 25, 2008, 01:05:10 pm: We use any one of three micro splitting solutions, and then Pure clean in the tank, as recommended to Chris, better results can be achieved without using 'old fashioned chemicals'

Post by: Straker Cleaning on February 25, 2008, 05:06:25 pm: Have only added a scoop per bucket ........................ completely disappears in the water as well.

Post by: Doug Holloway on February 25, 2008, 05:14:32 pm: Hi Guys

Prochem Pureclean is sodium tripolyphosphate which is the 'microsplitter' chemical, so you can use it as a prespray and in tank.

Cheers

Doug

Have I seen you write that sodium tripolyphosphate is a food stuff on here before.

How do you explain the difference to a customer between "old style" chemicals with detergents etc in and new greener chemicals?

I think there is a demand for green cleaning in my area (ne hants) but am struggling to know how to go about explainign the difference :-\
