Dan,
My understanding, is that almost all soils nation wide are acid base. That our 101 cleaning solution, leaves no dirt attracting residue, plus with the combination of the working revolution of the buffer pad, the absorption in to the pad, and the encapsulation process, creates the Ph neutralization as it drys and therefore the awesome process we have today!Thanks Gordon. My biggest concern was when using a very pH product like FAE, if our 101 is a proper neutralizer for something like that? I know the Acid rinse is big in the carpet cleaning industry, but just wondering if we ever need anything like that after using higher pH products.

When using FAE, I spray enough on to use a BBC pad to work the carpet before respraying with cleaner and Orange Deodorizer mixed. So I work the carpet after letting it sit for the 10-15 minutes. One, it absorbs and two, it still works the carpet at the high Ph.
So, I mix 1 (to 2 scoops max) of FAE per gallon of hot water (but not to hot to burn my hand, it will kill the enzymes). I put this through the power sprayer and mix 12oz of 101 and 1-2oz of OD to two gallons of (cold) water in my 2 1/2 gallon pump sprayer (that really only holds 2 gallons). Here, in Eastern Oregon, I have found the results kicking awesome!Sounds great! I usually use QB with very good results, but may try FAE on some of those nastier areas. Thanks.
DanI used to think the correct dilution for FAE was 1-2 scoops per gallon as well, until I read the product label. It actually calls for 1-2 scoops per 2 1/2 gallon jug.
