Hydrox/foam

March 29 2009 at 2:41 PM		Phil R 
Is there a way to make hydrox 'foam' so it can be used more in a dry/foam cleaning method?

Whipping it was not very useful.

Rambo, I left that wide open for you. happy.gif

It works pretty well in a Cimex application at the recommended dilution, but it may not be foamy enough for a true foam application. Keep in mind, it can also be used for HWE - therefore it isn't designed to produce BIG foam. It's a moderately low to medium foaming product, depending on the dilution.

Phil, I use the Releasit DS in the VS Esprit and it foams nicely and cleans great. I have not used the Hydrox as of yet, so I cannot answer your question.

I fully expected a more sarcastic reply. In fact, I was anxious for one. happy.gif

I was asking because I found hydrox to be very useful on cotton and white synthetics but wanted a low-moisture version.

DS works well enough too though.

Isn't it nice to ask an honest question and get and honest answer? Lots of good people on this forum.

Phil, next time I'll try to be more sarcastic! Like Shorty, I have turned over a new leaf, LOL
