Soapfree as a bonnet cleaner ?

[Todd Anthony]

Has anyone tried Soapfree for bonnet cleaning? Masterblends website says that it is 4 ounces for 5 gallons of water , that sure seems alot cheaper then the encap juices that are 36-38 bucks per gallon , at 4-8 ounces per gallon or more .

Just use water.

Just use water.

Scary thing is that I'd believe Marty may of tried using just water..... :shock:

Yes it works great as a bonnet cleaner.

I'm rethinking this expensive encap/SHAMPOO thing of whether it all works or not.

A gallon of RTU shampoo spread out over a 1000 sq ft doesn't leave much of those "Crystals" that they show in a petri dish.

If you mean prescrub and then bonnet off the cleaner then yes it works well. The only concern I would have with it is that there isn't enough lubrication to scrub aggressively with out damaging the fiber.

I have used it and it worked fine for general soils, I would rather use it then something like roto-brite

Yes Walt I always prescrub with adjust a glide brush then comeback with the big thick loopy 100% cotton bonnets .

i think the low/no residue would be the biggest plus for said product. doesn't it contain an oxy bleach???

Works great. I like Procyon too. But, for the time Encap Green, Hot Knife and some of Steve's other miracle juices save on the rat nasties they're well worth the extra money. I can make more money, I can't make more time.
