Tried most cleaning systems out there but not Chemdrys system for obvious reasons.
Are there any ex Chemdry guys on the forum that can share this super technology with us?

Does it work any better ?

How does it work?

The 'fizz' from the chemical reaction makes it more active and a gentle scrubbing happens although not like an envirodry but also the carbonation lowers the ph so if a chemical is a cleaner just because of it's ph like a degreaser (like in the old days) then it would become inaffective for it's original purpose.

PS I heard through the grapevine that a TM supplier was going to add it onto their TM's.

Dont ask (its a long story) how we got hold of the chemical, but we have in our chemical store some of chemdry chemicals.

The 2 powders also rust removers and a dye remover.

It really need to be binned as we have no need for it.

(ps we have never worked or had any connection with chemdry)

As an ex Chem -dry franchisee who regularly talks to current franchissees, including participants in thier "elite retreat". I can tell you it is more super marketing than super chemical. They are now offering the franchissees the chance to purchase a van and truckmount for the bargain price of just 46k plus VAT.

Have a look at one of there systems in action relabeled RX20

Some of the comments are amusing to read

Ray.... the 2 powders you refer to if they are red and blue pachets, then they will be "a" and "b" solution, put a teaspoon of each together then add a little water and watch the fizzing action, you could also mix the 2 powders and add the correct amount of water( I would have to lookat the old training manual to see the amount) then you could use this solution as a prespray, it does work well , but no better than anything else on the market.

The whole idea of Chem-Dry came when the founder used a soda syphon to remove a spillage from his carpet. The spillage what ever it was came straight off and the guy rightly or wrongly assumed it was the carbonated water which had done the trick. The idea is that the bubble rinse the dirt from the fibres.
It may be the spillage would have been removed with plain water. Anyway from that simple idea has sprung a multi billion dollar business.
Most of the UK franchises still rely on their fire & flood work for their main income. Although there are loads of ads in YP thats because they have to as a condition of the franchise. A lot can't be bothered with carpet cleaning.

ah" the natural" i remember it well a light prespray,over it with the rotary scrubber then remove with a charlie pad and wolla the dirt would all dissapear ..could also be used with the dinosaur ermm i mean the "velda" it had two clean water tanks at the front one you put the acidic natural in and one you put the alkaline natural in and they mixed at point of exit to become almost neutral,if the bloody heat generated didnt evaporate it all off ,brilliantly marketed but not up to the job in my opinion,i extracted with it most of the time wasnt convinced it worked well with rotary

In no way meant to offend and Chem Dryers out there just my personal opinion

[carpet guy]

I actually sourced a similar product a few months ago, but was the manufacturer refused to export the product..............

I was there before the Natural - Formula 5!
I would not argue with your general premise. 

I can´t prove or be sure about this but from something a supplier once told me I think 1 or 2 of  todays ¨microsplitters¨ are very similar in chemistry.
