Prespray tidbit..

I dont do alot of commercial jobs and I'm not a big fan of Prochem, but I did a doctors office tonight and had a sample of prochems olefin prespray, I sprayed part of the doctors office with it and it came up really nice. Very impressed.

I enjoy trying different chemicals and hearing about the different ones that work so I thought I'd throw that out there.

p.s. Rinsed with clear water just to see what the result would be also. Normally rinse with Endzone or 02..

The olefin pre-spray is great on glue down carpet. However, I used the olefin deep clean detergent on a glue down that was pretty soiled. The carpet looked great when I was finished. The owner of the store called me back a few days later and said there were white spots in the carpet. I went back and there was a white hazy powder all over the carpet. He tried vacuuming, but this did not remove the white powder residue. I explained to him that the product was supposed to crystallize like that, but he could vacuum the carpet a hundred times and that stuff will still be there. I mixed 32 oz in 5 gallon jug and metered @ 2-3 gallons per hour. The only other explanation would be if contactors were repairing sheet rock before I cleaned the carpet and the cleaning pulled it up to the surface.

Hmm.... I really hope it wasnt the olefin prespray that did that. This was a glue down.
Does it not work well on others? Or is glue down the one it works best on?

never had that problem with the prochem olefin cleaners

stuff works great if you pre scrub it in
