I've got an idea for all the chemical sales companies. Who wants to be the first to save the day?

I just thought of it while reading Mike's thread on refreshing his knowledge of dye removal. When I looked at that picture, I thought "dang...my hand would be wore out after squirting all those spots with stain magic". then it hit me, HARD! No, not really. But I thought of a pump up sprayer with 2, 1/2 gallon containers like the stain magic squirt bottle with the REDICULOUSLY small opening to fill it up, into being a normal pump up sprayer for those jobs like Mike posted.

So which one of you suppliers can help us out and MAKE MORE MONEY by selling more chemicals?

Or would we've just suffocated our home owner with the aroma of ammonia, lol?

I once cleaned an elementary school with over 1000 red stains. I had red zone ready in a full-size pump up sprayer

I once saw an Island Boy post I read.

Not all Red Stain Removers use ammonia. Ammonia at raw material strength is dangerous to handle in a plant. We did not want to expose our productions workers. We worked two years to develop a red stain remover without ammonia. In the process we were able to make one without the strong reducing odor as well. It is called Red Zone Ready. If you test red stain removal on unprotected nylon, then you will see which are the leading products.

With one part stain removers including RedZone Ready and Stain Zone, there is no need to mix from two containers. Just put it straight into whatever size sprayer you need.

No ammonia odor. No reducer odor when using RedZone Ready.

I always hated that the two part products never ran out of the same time. They were suppsoed to mix equally, but I always had 1/3 of a bottle of one part left over when the other part was gone.

So far I haven't had much success with 1 part stain removers. Tom, what is the brand name of your products again?

 

[J Scott W]

Tom is formulator / chemist for Bridgepoint as well as several related brands.

I mentioned this post to our chemist Clint Townsend and he said that bench testing your stain removers on unprotected carpet is a sure way to tell what works for real and what doesn't. That's what we used when we formulated Red 1. Also, the two part sprayer is convenient but not necessary. If you have multiple stains to treat by all means mix up more in a standard trigger sprayer or even a pump sprayer just remember the limited lifespan of the product once it's mixed.

I know the lifespan of the product when it's mixed. That's not my dilemma. When I want to use your stain magic, on a ton of spots that are still there at the end of the job, I don't want to wear my forearm out pulling that trigger for an hour, like in Mike's picture.

That's why I thought: "it'd be nice to have a bigger 2part sprayer container". then I thought that 2 half gallon containers would be perfect.

AHHH Heck!, I'll tinker with it this weekend and see if I can rig up one

Um, Captain Obvous to the rescue. Take 2 triggers. Place one in each container. Alternate. Work into the fiber. No waste really simple.

Remember, when you mix a 2 part solution of peroxide and ammonia, it builds gas. Enough gas to make your pump up sprayer explode eventually. When done spraying, empty remaining solution.
