You've been told correctly :)

It works differently from detergents and microsplitters.  It takes a little bit of time to get used to it but once you're comfortable with it there's no looking back.  Solution UK and Cleantalk is the best place for any info.

I ordered some to "try" about a year ago and have barely put anything else on a carpet or suite since ;)

I've heard mixed reports about it, some say it totally rubbish and some like Jim say its the bees knees

best thing to do is buy some and decide yourself

I've been using it on and off for about a year now. Never really given it a proper go. But i've been using it exclusively for the last fortnight and i must say it has worked great so far. I use a Sebo Duo to agitate it and this works great as long as the carpets got a bit of a pile to it. Used it today on a suite with pen marks on it. Sprayed it, agitated and left it for about half hour and the pen marks were gone, I was very impressed.
Looking to get a better agitating machine though as the low profile carpets don't come up that great with the duo. Need something a bit more substantial.

Been using it since it appeared and not looked back ........... use with Envirodri E30 and could leave some jobs without extracting  :o

pity they don't sell 500mls so people can try it out,

5lts for £75 inc is a bit much to pay if you don't know if you'll like it.

Chris and Jim

Can you give a run down of how you use it.

Ive got some and never got on with it.  I spray, agitate (host) and extract after 5 mins but results where better with normal microsplitters.

Im open to try something new for it.

I spray, agitate then rinse after 10+ minutes......... get into pattern of prepping room ahead of the one you are about to rinse. Easy if heavy trafic lanes as they can be misted/brushed in advance ...... light mist before rinsing if drying out  ;)

Must admit that Envirodri highlights just how lightweight the Sebo Duo is for the task .......... but ANY mechanical agitation is better than none at all  8)

Hi

Of the people who get on with M power, do you use a rinse aid or just plain water ?

I have read that most use pure clean in the tank, although is this politically correct as you are pre spraying with a neutral ph chemical and then rinsing with a ph9, seems a bit odd.
