i've only just tried using m-power, but so far not that impressed with it at all, anyone else find the same? or am I just using it wrong??? I use an envirodry e-40 for aggitation, and the rinse is done using a t/m so not sure what I'm doing wrong! :'(
                            all the best

Funny you should say that. I wasnt impressed either. After trying it on a couple of jobs, I thought right, lets see whats better - MPower or traditional detergents?

I tested a mat using the same amount of hoovering, pre-spray (using diferent brushes) and the same HWE temp and amount of passes.

The left hand side was using detergents, the right MPower. The pics speak for themselves. Im no expert and no doubt someone will point out a flaw in my test, and Im sure its a good product. But, IMO I dont think I will be using it anymore.

John, try calling the supplier for advice you may be using it wrong, you never know, little change can make big differences.

You didnt mention if you left it to dwell for example.

I have heard this before about mpower from numerous collegues but I really find it strange as I think it's exceptional. I know that you do use more prespray that you would do with conventional m/s and that the dwell time (at least 10 mins) and the dilution rate 1:120 (no more or no less) are equally important.

will, are you saying that a slight variation of dilution rate makes such a differnce?
a 100 to 1 wont get you results then, but 120 to1 will , I am sorry but I just cant swallow that , but if in fact this is the case , then in my opinion the product is not worth having. After all how many of us " if your been honest" measure to the degree of accuracy that the rate specifies ?
well not me  :-[   . No doubt i shall now get slagged off for not sticking accuratly to the instructions ;D
  Nemesis , I have tried and pleased with results, and use it in conjunction , on badly soiled carpets,
M/p not tried yet so cannot comment, but am waiting to hear of results from some body near to me who I believe is trying.
His opinion will be honest, and to the point, no girl thingy footing about , worring about upsetting suppliers etc . so for now i shall stick to nemesis :)

who ever said dont knock before u try ,i never tried dog crap but i know i wouldnt like  haha

Well I was frightend to come on here & say anything, but the hype on the boards about M-power was way over the top and after trying out 2 jugs of the stuff I am convinced Microsplitters are better.

The nonesense being said that a fraction over/under 120-1 and it wont work is utter crap.

When I first purchased mpower a few months ago I was not impressed with the results as maybe my dilution rates were not as accurate as they could've been.  I was then told by solutions to make sure it was 120:1 and it does seem to work better than a dilution rate of say 90:1 or 140:1. I am certainly not a cheer leader of mpower and have given it's pros and cons a number of times on this board.

I'm sure mpower works at all dilution rates but I was advised that it's at it's most potent at its prescribed dilution rate 120:1.

Without looking at the label on the product does M power no advise a stronger mix for heavier soiled carpets?
