    Talk to Scott W. Maybe he can get you the new pine booster just being released on the market... its good stuff, and is less money than citrus solve.

    The Pine Boost is now available to order on-line from Interlink Supply or by phone at 800 660-5803. It is being sent out to distributors now. Should be on all the shelf in the next 3 or 4 weeks.

    i like solvents personally because they are sooo water soluable and rinse out just like oils...and how come there isnt a chemical that just is a really good chemical that comes complete...and is already at a level that dosent need boosting ?
    ever try to rinse off a petroleaum or oil based "solvent" i love to watch that kind of stuff separate..kinda like vinagar and oil salad dressing. of course i have seen a type of citrus cleaning enhancer that is water soluable...seems like ive seen it ...citra boost by mixed rite ....im waitin for the real detergent though....you know...they kind that just automatically just works with out having to add anything to make it work like it should...what a thought...a chemical that actually does what its supposed to do ...with out needing a manufacturing license to "mix it up" in the back of your van..

    If you are using a decent prespray and are not cleaning the worst jobs in town,Most carpets don't need the extra boost of solvents, oxidizers or whatever. There are already sufficient solvents, pH builders and whatever in the presprays to do most jobs.

    The boosters are just for those nasty carpets. Why include the additional solvents, oxidizers, boosters in every gallon of every prespray when you only need them on some jobs? That would add to the cost. It could potentially add to questions about the safe use of products.
