Hey ZZZZZZyder ZZZZZZZZZee. Dude, sorry about that. I hate hearing how troubled you are with that funky bucket of PowerMax. I'm no chemist. I've spent my whole life running my carpet cleaning biz. Then I made a big change last fall when I joined the good people at Cobb Carpet Supply. Went from a long time customer and friend of CCS to an emplyee there. Since I've been there I have been able to observe up close and personal just how difficult it is manufacture, package, ship, and sell so many cleaning chemicals. Then there's the consulting and customer support both before and after the sale. And that's nationwide btw. Ain't easy.
Like I said, I'm no chemist. However, I have been a volume chemical buyer and user, as well as, technician trainer for more than 35 years. Here's my 2 cents fwiw. Of all the products we manufacture, Powermax, hands down, gets more rave reviews than any other. At the same time, Powermax also gets the most complaints. The way I see it is this. The very special blend of raw materials is what makes PM one of the best cleaners on the market. But then that same blend is what causes the headaches too. Raw materials do vary somewhat from time to time. Other factors like temperature, humidity, etc. could also have an effect. The result?... a damn good product that occasionally may appear to be a little different or inconsistent. That's life. If consistently pretty means adding fillers, blending agents, inactive ingredients to end up with a more expensive, less effective product, no thanks. We will leave that to our competitors.
More importantly, we want a happy customer. Zee, please call me Friday and I will take care of you personally. You will need to call me at the shop though. I am old school and handle problems one on one. Internet extortion is for pussies.
