Advanced Generation DFC Liquid Prespray

Jim Darling says Chemspec does not make Encap products. Maybe he is too modest to say they have been Encaping carpets for years with their Formula 161 soil retardant carpet shampoo with biosolve.

They just never called it Encap.

DB - we do not make an "encapsulation" product but you may find this tidbit interesting

Two years ago a major carpet mill purchased deodorizers from a US Distributor. They were trying to find a product that would eliminate mal-odor incontinent issues at health care facilities where this mill has sold carpet. Kill Odor Plus won out. Through this mill’s research they found Kill Odor Plus encapsulates without using polymers, and is an excellent pre-spray cleaner. Further testing at Professional Testing Labs certified Kill Odor Plus not only as a pre-spray but also as a spotter.

To receive the Seal of Approval for spotting and pre-spray from the Carpet and Rug Institute a product must successfully remove mustard, Ketchup, coffee, grape juice, black marker, chocolate syrup, dirty motor oil and soil. In addition the product can not contribute to re-soiling, change the color light fastness, have a pH no less than 4 nor be greater than pH 10 and can not contain optical brighteners. Kill Odor Plus has received the CRI Seal of Approval as a spotter / pre-spray product.

In almost every case what causes any product to have a questionable residue are the surfactants and detrgents that are incorporated into todays modern cleaners.

All DFC products have no surfactants at all AND THIS EXPLAINS WHY cLEANEX IS NOT HAVING ANY ISSUES WHATSOEVER WITH RESOILING

We are Introducing DFC into the market with a great reduction price to get it off the ground and into the field.  When we sell this product we make it a point to phone the customer back for their comments and satisfaction.

Regular Pricing will be in effect starting May 1st. 

DB - That is interesting. i probably do not disagree with you at all in terms of the marketing driven technology. I have never seen a good msds on these products as they tell you nothing about them. They do, however, use polymer or acrylic technology in most products.

We manufacture 2 different bonnet / pad solutions. One is totally non residual, the other contains what imost  consider to be a carpet protector and so the residual is extremely crisp and hard.

This makes them very different (at least in our case). The new DFC technology only incoprporates food approved ingredients and provide some very interesting results

Hardini:  I'm no expert, but I can't help noticing that the chemical compounds contained in "The new encapsulation technology" very much resemble those found in the old absorbent pad technology.  The cleaning results between the two technologies seem quite simiilar as well.  We do strictly steam-cleaning in our residential division, but I understand that some bonnet guys do quite well for themselves.

Now, for the sake of argument, if the $7.00/gallon guy's product is indistinguishable from the $19.95 guy's product, then he has hit on a product/marketing combination practically equivalent to the forementioned encapsulation/absorbent relationship.

By the way, I respect your opinion as well--Diamond Brian.
