Solvent Based Fabric Protector

Hi Guys
I have over 600 chairs to protect and am toying between Craftex and Prochem.
Which one would you recommend or is there a better alternative?
Cheers
Doug

I've got some Craftex in the garage it's a bit sticky IMO I think Prochem fabric seal is a better product, don't forget about Kev Lombes when he didn't some solvent protecting without a mask and was off work for a few days.

why a solvent protector?
I'm a big lover of Craftex waterbased concentrate protector, it does a good job and it the most economical I've found.

Doug,
I have found protectnano from Solutions to be suitable for many dry clean only fabrics. I usually do 2 x fine mist coats. I haven't touched solvent based protector for years. The smell is bad news for anyone in the vicinity.

I agree Nigel, I'm not sure Doug will go for Nano
if you are looking for a branded protector Prochem do some decent ones but Chemspec do some stonkers.

Hi Guys
Thanks for the replies.
I need solvent because i did a trial and they much preferred the solvent based one.
They are taking the chairs to a loading bay so I will have a well ventillated area as it has open grill doors.
Cheers

Doug you still need a mask, I've seen your face and it scares people
Clive Nano is very good.
