Hey guys Mark again. I had a long conversation at the NCE Expo regarding chemicals. Heres the delema!! Dawn has 2 kinds of soap, Regular dish soap and dishwashing soap designed for the dishwasher of course. What do you guys prefer to use. The reason for my question it simple PRICING!! Sam's Club has dish washing soap 90 oz for $7.22 but yet has 56 oz of multi-purpose $4.86.....

I agree with the amox, BUT STAY AWAY FROM THE AJAX! I find the Ajax has a bad reaction to the mix.... Strong fumes and intense foaming.

Well heres what im using but not going to give exacts. For a 100 gal mix is use 65 gals of water, 35 gals of SH, Ammonox LO, A Pinch of Ammonox M, and a smidge of Hang tite. The only reason I asked is everyone makes different types of cleaning chems. I call my little con****shine Chicken Soup!!

     Ajax is way too foamy, Dawn still allows too much runoff, and not to piss anyone off, but Amonyx-LO is my absolute least favorite surfactant of all time.

If you take the time to read the label, AJAX warns you to NOT use it with chlorine bleach, since it will produce toxic fumes. FYI

Kevin,

If Ammonyx-LO, Dawn, and Ajax doesn't work for you, what does? Not pissed, just curious.

This does get quite confusing and the consenses is that everyone uses something different! Once a customer swore up n down that this stuff called roof restore is the best stuff on earth! I told him you do half ill do half and see who finishes first. Short story I had to stop him when he pulled out the pressure washer when i wash done and said what r u doing he said finishing! He paid me 350 to do the roof in his duplex after mine came cleaner than his!!!
