I've been doing student rentals all week. Averaging a hydorforce container every 800-1000 s.f.
Believe me one gallon of diluted prespray per 100 s.f. is not excessive.
All you need to know is how to clean and extract properly.
Talked with a super nice fella today, uses a 40oz. mini pump up, sometimes he uses a full sprayer on one house. :shock:
I didn't know what to say, hey if it's workin' for ya, who am I to say?
All I can say is he must be running something pretty potent through his wand or has upped his dilution to compensate????
You know the truth of the matter is I find that people's expectations for what carpet is supposed to do is pretty low so he may just meeting expectations and not exceeding them like most of us do.
I usually spray out about 150-200 feet per gallon. The past few days I've been doing some large CGD jobs. I've used about 2 6.5 lb tubs of Powermax for about 12500 ft of carpet. I mix 4 oz per gallon so you guys figure the math from that.
I finally got my shipment in today. I should be good for a good while. I bought 4 buckets. I figure it should last me at least a few months. I gotta say you get a lot of soap for your buck for sure with the buckets. All those on the fence try a case and if you like it get you some buckets.
