What prespray would be ideal to use inconjunction with vlm cleaning

[John Kelly]

We have a lot of customers who's preferred method is the host system.  They now pre spray the bad bits with Dynamall and are getting excellent results.

[JandS]

What's the host method?

[*Hector*]

sponges mate...

 

[*Hector*]

The few times that I used VLM, I used Nemesis/Mpower, and that worked very well too... Much better than just the sponges alone..

I actually did not like the VLM method as I found I spent more time trying to get the sponges back up than I would have done had I just cleaned with the rotary.... Also just as much liquid went into the carpet with VLM as with LM.

Host also do their own, which works quite well

Thanks for the advice guys under normal circumstances I would keep away from this but I've quoted £500 for 46 m2. They are happy to pay so I just got to find a way to clean it. I was looking at the host Chems do you reckon I could scrub it in with my duo or oreck then just vac out? I also came across craftex exotic has anyone tried this before??

[Birchdalecleaning]

Sorry meant ecotex

Whats the drying time for dynamall  & when used with sponges will this effect the dry time of the sponges

Also  if using Dynamall on it's own do you have to wait till the next day to vac ?

[John Kelly]

No, there was a misconception about having to post vac when the new Polymer Encaps came out. As with any low moisture system pre-vaccing is essential. Dynamall usually dries within 30 - 40 minutes. Don't think it adds much to the granule drying time.
One thing when using granules. The solvent in them sinks to the bottom so always give them a really good stir or stand upside down before using or the top ones can be really dry and innefective.
