I am willing to try it I think.... I just wonder why the rinse isn't more concentrated... do you guys use it at 16 or 32 oz per gal?
Also, what is the deal on the hot sauce, it isn't on their website. What kind of product is it? Ph booster, solvent, yak saliva? Do you have to run super hi flow to rinse it out? Will all of that delimanene cause problems? Montana doesn't have the clay dirt like the guys who are raving about it have. What sprayer y'all using?
please give me the skinny.
Gary,
The extraction chemical is highly concentrated. The recommended dilution ratio is 1 quart to 5 gallons, but you set your flow meter very low, between 1 and 2. If your flow meter is having problems holding at such a low ratio, add 16 ounces to 5 gallons and set the flow meter between 3 and 4. At the ratio of 32 ounces to 5 gallons, and the flow meter set very low, this allows you to clean about 3 hours before you need to refill the jug.
The Judson O2 system has been out for about 4 years now. We have not have any issues with the system, causing any problems like bleaching, etching stainless, or causing any bleeding of upholstery material. The only issue we’ve ever had was one case where the O2 System was used in a home where the home owner was allergic to Dilimonine. The extraction chemical is a very unique chemical. It has a neutral ph and leaves a residue of sodium borate which changes the water to hydrogen peroxide. The benefit of this is the obvious disinfectant properties for deodorization, but it also assists in preventing wicking. The O2 System also has a drying accelerator in it to prevent wicking. To really take advantage of the fast-drying capabilities, use an air mover.
The Hot Sauce is a modifier that changes the formula of the O2 System. It does increase the ph, but it also incorporates enzymes, additional solvents and detergent boosters. Using the Hot Sauce modifier allows you to use half the amount of pre-spray that you would normally use. It is to be used when cleaning extremely trashed out carpets, restaurants or tile floors.
The O2 System pre-spray is a low ph system. This allows us to clean all fibers including wool, and upholstery material. The O2 pre-spray also has a high concentration of sodium borate, which is a powerful oxygen bleach as far as disinfecting and brightening goes. Sodium borate is a very safe product. It is actually used to preserve delicate wool sweaters.
The sprayer that I recommend is a power sprayer. The reason I do not like Hydroforce sprayers is that they are very inconsistent regardless of what pre-spray you use. You have to learn the mixing ratios for specific jobs, but once you learn them, it’s not really that big of a deal.
You can actually take the O2 System which consists of an extraction agent, a pre-spray, and the Hot Sauce modifier and clean every fiber that there is. I now have hundreds of customers who have eliminated all the products on their trucks other than the O2 System, and they are having just as good of results if not better than they were experiencing before.
One of the big advantages of the Judson products is that we are selling more product for the money; anywhere from 1 ½ to 5 times more product. If you are cleaning a lot of carpet in a years time, this can add up to several thousand dollars in savings.
