Obviously different solutions will require different methods of application, but i wondered what method are used on here, as a rule i usually appy M/S or Fabric Restorer with a Hand trigger bottle but hav eon occasion been concern that im not applying enough, ive never tried to apply by pump up sprayer becuase of a concern for over wetting, does anyone use this method and does it speed things up?

M/s normally only needs a light mist before agitation and if necessary go over it again. I found with Fabric Restorer it needed a heavier amount put onto the fabric as it needs dwell time and agitation to work. In this case I would use a pump up sprayer with fan jet. The fabric should still dry out fairly quickly with the right hand tool. Another thing I found with Fabric Restorer was the fumes used to get right down my throat which was why I decided not to use it anymore, although now I believe it has been reformulated since I used it last used it.

90% of the time we use a pump up 5ltr sprayer with a fan jet, on heavily soiled fabric its the best way to do it. We only use a 1ltr sprayer for suites that hardly need it.

With the proper control you shouldnt over wet, but usually you need to get it quite wet to distribute the cleaner properly (obviously before you use any cleaner tests should be carried out - even making sure the fabric can be wet cleaned etc etc). If you have a good machine with good vacs it shouldnt be left too wet at all, and certainly one unit at least should be able to be dried with a turbo dryer - even before you start to pack up.

Fabric restorer is fine now days and smells lovely

I used a pump up sprayer today on a draylon suite, wasnt any wetter when id finished and i was pleased with the results, think ill invest in a 1lts sprays though as its a little more accurate and manouverable.

p.s I like fibric restorer but found it foams up on some suite needs a few extra passes.  you are right about the smell though Kev
