Hi

I have been using Amtech microsplitters one for wool and upholstery and one for synthetic. The one for synthetics is good but Im not really sure about the other one, I've had mixed results. I've not been doing carpets long so havnt tried many different chems.

I have been thinking about having a go with Solutions, M power or fusion 8 as everyone likes them so much. What would you recomend to try first? Do they have different merits? and is the booster worth using? Are they much better than the Amtech ones?

Thanks
Rob

I used Amtech Microsplitters also and now use Prochem, Nemesis, Fusion 8 & M Power.
If your going with one of the latter two I would go with M Power as it performs well on most things I've tried it on.
Haven't tried the booster and to be honest haven't needed it, if it comes to it I would just apply a second spray.

hi rob i to have not bin cc for long and i have only tried prochem and found them to be brilliant, but the mpower and fusion products are highly rated on here, i will defo give them a try when im getting low on stock, and they look value for money...bugsta

M power is my preferred choice most of the time but I sometimes use fusion 8 on suites. HD microsplitter is also very good especially on very dirty syntethics and makes a great spotter mixed at about 6/1.

What dilution rates would you use for M Power on a lightly soiled suite?

[Colin Day]

In simple terms, for 5 litres of pre-spray I use 15ml of M-Power. If it's a minger I put 56grams of Soluboost in it as well, mixed with very hot water.

[wayne zabel]

What do you use to measure out 15 ml

[Billy Russell]

Hi Wayne,

I use a syringe!

How you gonna get 15ml of powder up a syringe?

Colin

You tight sod, I mix MP at 1/100 or 50ml per 5 litres.
I use a syringe for this.

John,

Read Colins post and then waynes again!!!!!!!!! Colin said 15mls of M-Power and wayne asked how he measures it! Unless M-Power has become a powder which is new to me! 

Regards

Billy

i like m power and am now using nemesis as i want to compare both , results are more or less the same though i would give m power the edge. for measuring out i use a small plastic measure cup ( like an egg cup ) it holds up to 30mil i prefer this to a syringe.

Hey, it works really well.... Less is more they say

Colin, 15ml seems a bit on the low side, I thought it was 120/1 which would be 41ml, or do you find you are getting a good response at that dilution.

As for measuring I use an old baby milk bottle

[Colin Day]

Doh.... I'm getting mixed up in my old age I was thinking about when I'm mixing 'Final Phase', not M-Power.....
And even that's wrong because Final Phase is 30ml per 20litre.....

Right, I'm off for a glass of wine.... (More than 15ml I hasten to add!!!)

[Billy Russell]

Colin,

You going to measure that in a syringe? Or just stick with the pint glass?

What dilution rates would you use for M Power on a lightly soiled suite?

80 - 1

[Robin Ray]

Thanks for the replys.

Ill give M Power a go next then.

Rob

80 - 1

Mark I quite ofton use 80/1 on heavily soiled carpets, leave for 20 mins and then a light overspray with HD, works wonders.  For light soiling I use at a rate of 120/1.

[clinton]

Same here with that..its all about the dwell time with m power ..
