Almost out of the consumables I had to buy with my previous franchise and need to restock. I know everybody has their own preferences but would just like some feedback on some of what is out there. We do mainly commercial and to date have used the product supplied with the equipment etc. For residential looking for ease of use rather than cost etc, tried the Solutions range and was not that impressed so rather than buy some of each product some reasons why you use the consumables you use.
Thanks
-
which chems did you have with your franchise?
-
The franchises own brand hence my question about other consumables out there and some pro and cons
-
If not solutions,
can't really go wrong with Chemspec cumbria's trial packs..
or give John Kelly a buzz at restormate..

Jim
I tried
Dirtbusters
Chemspec
Alltec
Hydramaser
Solutions
Prochem
Craftex
And various others that I have acquired ,
Looking for the holy grail of chemicals and never found it , the reason there isn’t one .
In the end
I upgraded my machine ,my agitation and added heat and found that they all worked 100% better
I now mainly stay with solutions as I like the fact they are mostly eco friendly .they all work if used correctly, ie heat of mix, dwell time etc

Thanks for your replies, anybody tried AmtechUK microsplitters??
-
I’m just about to order some, I like the stuff and I find most of amtechs chemicals to be top notch

Here are some cracking chemicals I often order:
Prochem Pureclene , its a microsplitter good all round on everything not too highly soiled prespray.
Prochem Powerburst, Prespray excellent on Restaurants and heavily soiled carpets
Research Products UP and Out, enzyme prespray good on everything imo
Craftex Pre Enzyme Solution, Prespray Great for linen suites, also vomit, blood, and urine.
Chemspec F321 Good allround prespray
Dynamall Encapsulation solution
F90 high ph extraction detergent, excellent product
Hydramaster Hydra dri, excellent multi dilution extraction detergent
Chemspec Optimal rince, Acid rinse with added cleaning power.
Prochem solvall solvent spotter,
Craftex coffee stain remover
Prochem citrus gel
Prochem ink stain remover
Alltec powdered Acid, for stains, browning and Acid rinse
Prochem rust remover
Craftex deodorisers
Prochem powdered defoamer
Excellent suppliers are Restoremate and Cleanspec Cumbria

Franchise own products are rebranded products bought at a cheaper price and sold at a considerable mark up price and maybe not a suitable product

Thanks again, with doing mainly commercial work the most common issue is tea and coffee which I have found Amtech zip it to be quite effective and easy to use, but will check out the suggestions offered.

commerical with tea and coffee...
Dynamall blew me away... using it for low moisture..
Oxybreak (cleanmaster) and Hydro 202 (solutions) are also great..
