Let the soap wars rage! There are syn-dets (Super Soaps) out there that make it possible to clean windows with a WFP using high TDS tap water. These will also give our squeegees extreme glide. With very little added to your water. This is going to be the subject of a newsletter so I won’t be getting into the details of the chemistry. But I am going to see if I can get several gallons of this stuff to pass out. How many of you guys are interested? Just let me know on this thread.
Me, this would be something I could definitely try out, and give feedback on, as I"ve recently switched to GG4 (never having used it before) and would like to do a comparison.
The community has responded. Keep an eye on this thread. I will use it like a Twitter account. Comes Monday I will start ordering Super Soaps for everyone. Please send me your shipping addresses by email.
I have been snooping around on the net today. Have been learning more about the families and why it is so critical to knock out surface tension. Must finish my newsletter on “Building Slow Release Compounds” tonight then I will look some more. Comes Monday I will start ordering.
But I will need your shipping addresses. I have some.
Thanx so much! This is Sunday night. I am copying addresses into my book. Need to research some more Super Soap chems. There will be a very interesting post in my blog about this. But the real practical info regarding ingredient sources and concentration ratios will be in the Product Development Review.
I ordered three Super Soaps today. Hopefully they come in fast. I got to tell you guys this is a fascinating project. We are talking about a product/soap that cost over a hundred bux a gallon. Or around five hundred bux for a five gallon pail. The samples will only be six ounces each. Which will not cost me anything. Two of them have a ratio of .1 ounce. So one ounce of detergent to 1,000 ounces of water. Six ounces of soap will yield six thousand ounces of solution. Or almost forty seven gallons. At a cost of about one buck or less per ounce of detergent, the end cost would be about 12 cents per gallon. I can see using a cleaner like this for inside window cleaning without a squeegee, or even outside window cleaning with a squeegee, but what of WFP work? Exactly how many gallons does it take for example to clean the outside of twenty five windows that are five by five feet square each? Also what is the cost roughly per gallon of water that has been run through a resin tank or an RO system?
I think this is the kind of practical info we need to look at.
So far I have collected about 15 addresses so I will mix the samples into enough water so I can split it up for everyone that wants to try it. Keep on sending your addresses.
Oh yeah, I have been thinking of what to call these. The general name will absolutely be Super Soaps. That will be the title of my post in my Blog and the Product Development Review for October. But I will also be naming the individual Supers. I was thinking of cat names. So the first two will be Cheetah 1 and Cheetah 2. The third will be Snow Leapard.
