Hi
Just wondered what I should have as a minimum, I was looking at crystal green as a extractor fuid

and multi pro for a pre spray, I am mainly doing domestic houses at this stage, I know it might be an idea to have some

selection of stain removers.

Its so daunting with so many chemicals to choose from, and I know different carpets have different ones, but

as a general average what would be the main chemicals what would do most carpets.

If you were starting out what would you buy just to start you off?

Many thanks for any advice.

p.s using a prochem 2100rx machine.

Why only Prochem?
There are many other products out there that may suit you as well or better.
I use one companies products mainly.
I have 2 general carpet solutions and 4 spotters all safe products to use.
If they cannot get it clean then we are in the 'black arts' of stain removal with risk to the carpet.

well prochem is the only one i really know of at present, what company do you recommend then for chemicals

they might even be cheaper. I only thought prochem as i have the prochem machine and someone told me thier chemicals were pretty good as well, but being a newbie i'm not sure where else to look.

I'll put my hard hat on here and say if I was starting off and unsure what was good or not, you could do a lot worse than ordering a sample pack from Solutions - £60 inc vat & delivery, and if you spend £150&VAT within 60 days you get the £60 refunded. It's got presprays, detergents, and some stain treatments.

Otherwise buying chemicals only to find you can't get on with them can get quite expensive.

cheers, so do you use all thier chemicals for carpet cleaning then? just had a look at the site looks good. what main extracor one do you use?

If you want Prochem stuff:

Power burst for a heavy prespray,
Double clean for general use,
Stain pro for most stains,
Citrus Gel for heavy stains, gum, tar, oil, etc
Fibre & fabric rinse,
Liquid woolsafe,
Multipro can be used as a less heavy prespray or as an extraction chemical,
always handy to have a bit of contract carpet deodoriser.
For sanitizing, something like Clensan.

If you're just starting out and want Prochem stuff, you could do a lot worse than giving John Kelly from Restormate a call - he stocks Prochem stuff and is good for advice & guidance.
