PC Powerburst pre spray?

[PTMatt]

I've heard that Prochems Powerburst prespray is really good for the nasties. I've been trying it out for the last few weeks and havnt been overly impressed. It doesnt seem to be anymore effective than our everyday pre-spray which is HM's fastbreak. I'm I doing something wrong? I mix it as directed at 12oz's to 5 quarts of water, rake or prescrub in traffic lanes or heavily soiled areas and still get about the same results as our Fastbreak. Just wanted to get some thoughts from others that use PB.

It is an enzyme based pre spray so it needs to be mixed hot and best used on greasy resaurants. I use extreme clean from cti and mix power burst with it hot for restaurants. Fastbreak is good but not good enough for the nasties

Maybe i'm not mixing it hot enough.

you can't get enough of any powder in a Hydroforce in-line sprayer to be effective

do this...get an electric sprayer.
thoroughly mix 2 heaping scoops pr gal of HOT water and spray it that way.

Fast Break is a good pre-spray, (like all Ultrapac knockoffs) but PB kicks they're azz all over the rat nasties

Yup... I do use a HF without any tip(4 to 1) and I mix it crazy well.

Don't waste your money on PB then.

If there is no regard to warranty grab a "broad spectrum" prespray like Cobb's powermax and boost if necessary based on job conditions............


or ultrapac

sorry Fred, as a certified sec 8 CCing GAWD, I have to disagree .
PB does kick azz on a broad spectrum of soils and beats Ultrapac every time
(Ultrapac is what we use for "normal" res)

I'm with Fred on this one. For me powerburst was not as effective as powermax or grease eraser. I do use a hydroforce but I use that same hydroforce for the powermax and grease eraser so I have a hard time laying blame on the in-line.

I do keep powdered peroxide to use as a booster when needed, mostly just on houses with urine issues.

Meat's application worked for me in a Japanesse steak house resturant where the carpet was packed thick with grease. Layed it down and blew the Mgr mind. Just like that TV comerical where the aisan guy says "WOW!" :mrgreen:

Heat.
Agitation
Chemical Strength
and Time.

Utilize each element to the right degree and all the above will do a fine job.

Guaranteed!

But then, we always look for the "magic" bullet.
Don't we?

I recently used a sample of Prochem's Olefin preconditioner and was impressed with it. Do you Prochem users find a difference between it and Powerburst?

 

[John Olson]

For the rat nasties use POWERSTRIKE for the Resturants use POWERBURST. Two different chemistries both equally great.

In "general", I consider Prochem as one of the consistently best lines "overall"
But I've never thought much of their olie pre-spray.
I'd use Ultrapac over it any day

Never used Powerstrike or Cobbs. Fastbreak is knockoff of Ultrapac and I use it or Judsons for everyday use. Powerburst with Extreme Clean on restys with White Lightning metered through the truckmount, Extreme Clean with Enzall/Citrus/Peroxide for trashed residential. Just tried Redline, worked good but gotta mix hot, gotta use too much. Extreme clean is 1 scoop per gallon, great results
