Which Essential Oils Mix With Tea Tree? March 6 2007 at 1:33 PM		Derek

i recall Rick G. that you mentioned Peppermint Essential Oil is a good one to mix with TT oil to dilute the TT scent. has anyone tried others? orange? lavendar? grapefruit? thanx --- Derek. BTW, here is a great place i just found to buy all kinds of E.O.'s inexpensively: http://stores.ebay.com/WFMED_Essential-Oils_W0QQcolZ4QQdirZ1QQfsubZ1956092QQftidZ2QQtZkm

A natural solvant

Hey Derek,when i used the DS my customers will always walk in from outside after i'm finish and they would say "well at least it smells good"!!! And then they would go searching for the the really bad spots that was there before i cleaned. They wouldn't find them. But always ,they would say that it smells good first. Besides that, tea tree oil is a natural solvant it compliments the encap cleaning detergent. So if you add some other oils do you think that might possibly break the integrity of the tea tree and possibly cause a residue that will attract soil?

Thanks Derek!

I'm curious to know if grapefruit seed extract works with it. I've read some good things about it lately... has some deodorizing and sanitizing properties much like TT extract.

BTW thanks much Derek for taking the time to answer some questions last night. You're a class act!

A drop or two of peppermint to a bucket of detergent won't cause any problem.

Yes Derek, I've been working hard lately. Which is mostly good but between a few long days and my baby daughter keeping me up at night I'm a bit tired... However I also have a dead-pan kind of phone voice. I try to be a bit peppy when custies call but it's always something I have to struggle with. Fortunately I'm a nice guy so after custy's meet me they usually like me....
