Does anybody else have problems with little brown bits in their Shockwave, however I mix it they wont dissolve and end up blocking the sprayer nozzle, even using the large blue plastic nozzle it still happens. It happened with my free trial tub as well, so its not a bad batch ive had.
I rang Solutions and it seems i am the one it happens too.
Ive got a tub as big as a wheelie bin to get through so any ideas would be grateful.
Thanks
Kev.

Happened with my sample tub, hence why I didn't buy any more. It looks like grit and just won't dissolve, I don't know what it is. I do like other solutions products though and I've always used PB which is identical to shock wave.

Also got the sample pack of all their stuff, only turned up the other day so have not tried anything yet, but will keep an eye out for that

Yep I have had this problem too    Although the new tub I received a couple of weeks ago appears to be a different formula and has very very few brown bits in it.

My new tub also appeared to look better, it looked a bit more refined but it still happened. I changed over to Powerburst after rinsing out the sprayer and I still had a couple of blockages from the odd bit that must have been left in there. At least i'm not the only one, I just cant understand why nobody has ever mentioned it before?

PB which is identical to shock wave??  Shock wave contains those nasty enzymes doesnt it.....PB does not.

I've got the same problem with the yellowish/brownish bits that won't dissolve - glad it's not only me.  After mixing, most of these bits are caught on the inlet filter in my WCW electric sprayer - always wondered what they were though?

Rusty cement mixer.

or rusty shovel.

I use PB on bad EOT's, I was going to try Shockwave but I don't like the sound of these bits, is it still worth giving it a try?

[james roffey]

I have noticed these bit too, i found it was blocking the filter of my pump up sprayer, i have taken to placing a cloth over the funnel when i fill the sprayer to filter out these bits they dont disolve at all, dont know what they are, if they are not meant to be in the product i will be a bit upset as i have a massive tub of shockwave which i think is a good product

[wynne jones]

Wonder if Nick would offer a replacement tub?

[Robin Ray]

I had the same experience with shockwave. I have the sample pack and apart from spm I cant seem to get anything to work PB seems world apart to SW and I have only got MPower to work once. Everyone else seems to rave about solutions products, is it just me?

Might be Robin 

The thing about Mpower is that less is more..... If you mix it too strong, thinking it will work better.... It dont...

Fusion Clean works best at twice the recommended dilution, and the HD microsplitter works great if you agitate like billy-o....

Ritchie, I meant in terms of use, not chemical make up. I find a lot of people use PB and SW in the same circumstances, if i've got something grubby to make good I have found PB never fails.

have you ever tried it on the kids 

[Russ Chadd]

Silly question but how are you mixing the stuff?
I have never had any problems with Shockwave as long as i gently add it to a bucket of hot water whilst stirring.
 

[M.Acorn]

Used it for the first time today, on a minging garage reception that I do regular.
Did notice little brown flecks in the tub, but I have the nozzle on my sprayer set to more or less open, as it is so greasy.
Also added 5 scoops of solu boost stuff into the mix.
It's on a par if not slightly better than powerurst,the one plus is no fib and fab rinse, but not sure price wise if using the 2 products as opposed to using pwr burst and fib and fab rinse works out.
Boss was impressed.
No fun cleaning and having mechanics with greasy boots walking over the freshly cleaned carpet though

If you are having to add something to it and it's only about as good as PB then I would stick with PB. I assume this was a synthetic tile or similar I wouldn't bother with acid rinse anyway.

[M.Acorn]

Yeah carpet tiles, think I will prob stick with pb, don't dare use my sebo , as I will never get it clean again
