Carpet protector questions

[gimmeagig]

Hi,
I want to get set up to sell carpet protector. Most of the other stuff I'm using is made by Prochem so I'm looking at Fourguard.\
Not much info on the website.Is this a good one or are there better ones out there? I can get it ready to use or concentrate. Not much difference in price I'm told.
I don't have the money for a really good electric sprayer and I'm aware that a cheesy Home depot sprayer might not give me the presentation I had in mind. So I looked on e-bay and came up with this one

goes up to 60 psi

Is that enough?

Or should I look for a higher end pump sprayer like this?

Select a sprayer that can use interchangable fan tips. Most spray tips use the Spraying Sytems code where the first part of the number designates the spray angle (width) and the last part of the number relates to the size of the opening. An 8006 produces a spray 80 degrees wide and with a large enough droplet that you don't get a lot of mist in the air.

Fourgard is a good product. I do think there are better ones. Maxim Advanced includes the acid dye resistors that add extra protection by resisting food coloring and dyes such as you find in Kool Aid, Gator Ade, soft drinks and so forth.

Here is a video demonstrating how Maxim Advanced works and some tips on selling it to your clients. http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=Int ... SomWRg8K7Q

Roxy;

Do not spray fluorochemical protectors at pressures over 40 PSI.

High pressure forms small particles that float up in the breathing zone.

A Pump-up with Viton rubber parts and a TeeJet tip is the most economical solution.

Jet size is usually #8004 for water-based protectors ...

or #8001 for solvent-based protectors (my preference).
