In your opinions what is the best solvent additive for pre spraying?
Ashbys sell a solvent spotter which can be used as an additive to your pre spray which I have used and its not bad...

Your thoughts please

Heavy Duty Soil Lifter is a good all rounder and works out relatively cheap compared to others.

I've been using citra boost, that Heavy duty soil lifter looks like a good all rounder, time to try that one  :)

Hi John - I am considering adding Heavy Duty Sole Lifter to my DFC pre-spray.

Any recommendations on dilution rates?

Regards

Jim

I don't know if its me but looking at the dilution rate it seems quite a lot for 3.75 ltrs

A mate gave me a sample of HDSL and i have to say its great stuff...
Can be used as a spotter and a booster... i added some to DFC 210 and it worked great

Steve, not sure you understood my question.

If I have (say) 5 litres of RTU DFC210 and wanted to boost it with HDSL,  then how much undiluted HDSL should I add to the DFC210?

Regards

Jim

The directions state for booster add 240ml to gallon (3.78L) of pre-spray detergent.
I have actually used as little as 50-100ml to 5 litres of pre spray and had good results.
