Fast Acting Enzyme Question

Correct. Thats another reason why I prefer using Quickboost as a pre spray; you can go as hot as you want without killing the little critters.

Answer: Hot water. But not to hot. If it will burn your hands, it will kill the enzymes.

I think I’ve tried it with every possible combination of water, mix and on every different kind of soiling. All my side by side tests didn’t show any difference. Side with FAE took longer due to having more moisture and needing more passes to get adequately dry. Has anyone else done side by side comparison?

I’m going clear out on a climb here. Before I start I must say again each area is going to experience different results due to soil and other differences ie. humility, farm and ranch communities, city smog, soil PH, clay content, animals, and so forth.
Over the last few months, in trying to do even better, we have altered the procedures of our cleaning to the extent our customers have gone from satisfied to ecstatic!
We pre-vacuum, Spray FAE, let dwell, and go over with damp BBC pad (if carpet can take the BBC). This is very high on the PH side towards alkali. We buff here before the PH is deluded lower. Next we then spray 101 with orange deodorizer mixed. (This in turn is the lower side of the PH acid side). We almost always use the towel in our cleaning. Some soils and stains will be removed better with higher or lower PH. It is a lot easier the sell protector when the customers are thrilled! Either way the results (in my area) from customers comments have put my employees and myself on a whole new level of respect and admiration. It really feels good knowing they are not only satisfied but thrilled.
I have waited to reply this post until I have had adequate time for a proven record (in my area) instead of just a theory. I hope this works in your area as well.

Disclosure: Your results may vary. Do not seek professional help, and yes, try this at home!
Warning: Do not put orange deodorizer through your power sprayer or upholstery mate.

2 gallon pump sprayer most of the time and uses the power sprayer for the FAE. Sometimes one of my operators sprays 101 with power sprayer and mists on OD straight. I prefer the first. Some carpets can’t take the OD straight without spotting.
