Sodium Percarbonate instead of SH

Just giving you the facts. No need to call the police on me little buddy. I also said bring it with you. So I don’t go back now, though I did on the beginning. As far as destroying equipment… We all know SH eats plastic and metal. Guess what doesn’t? SP. That’s all I’m saying.

Ok, I didn’t realize you were just here to troll. Keep on keeping on. I never knew black destroyed plastic and metal. I wonder what orange does. I heard it’s the new black. I have dropped down to 215 though. Thanks for noticing I was getting little. I don’t think police need to be involved at this point.

Quick! Somebody rush this man to the nearest Waffle House.

Somehow 225 was the reading a couple of months ago. I guess I needed to stop with the moon pies

If you are telling me SH doesn’t destroy pressure washers and even eat plastics you might be the troll.

Nice edit. What I said was black doesn’t damage metal or plastics. You should call Clorox and tell them to quit putting bleach in those plastic bottles. You’re a strange dude, but that’s ok. It takes all types. I’ve never had bleach destroy my equipment, but that’s just me, and everyone else :slight_smile:

The dude bagging my groceries yesterday asked me if I wanted my milk in a bag. I said ‘nah, just leave it in the jug’. Tat tat, psssssssss.

Children laugh at the “Teacher” even if they erase mistakes on the chalk board. I asked your source if he made a mess after using SP and he said no… it wasn’t even SP. You are the liar. Ask him yourself if you don’t believe me.

Very entertaining. Many laughs. Thank you gentlemen. I needed that. Had a long day washing

I see there are a lot SH industry plants on this site. Keep paying for new equipment fellas. I’m actually in the air about to land in Atlanta for fun in the city because of all the money I’ve saved just from this week alone.

I don’t know who the source is. Tell me more about the black, and the source, and who you are, and why you get those little flashes in your eyes when you sneeze hard, and what your end game is here?

But on a more serious note, little prayer for my mom would be appreciated. Fell a couple of hours ago. Broken arm, leg and hip. Sitting in ER while they do more X-rays and talk about surgery. Sent dad home so he’ll be rested for tomorrow. So for tonight it’s solitaire on my phone and updating family members

She’s a little loopy right now. Probably going to be a long recovery but nothing life threatening so that’s the good news. At 72 she’s still a decade younger than @Racer probably, so she has relative youth on her side.

Semawy or whatever your name is since you didn’t bother to introduce yourself, your math is way off. I love SPC and it definitely has it’s uses and environmentally has some advantages over SH for certain uses. However in our business it has certain disadvantages compared to SH.
First is the shelf life once it’s mixed - you have 4-5 hours max.
2nd - It dissolves much better with warm water which many contractors don’t have access to, especially on a job site.
3) I don’t know where you’re getting it for $1.35/lb - buying it 240 lbs at a time with shipping my cost is around $4/lb for good quality. 40lbs makes a 50 gal drum full at 8oz powdered per gal, so your actual cost per gal is very similar to SH and the PH is is about 15% less than SH
4) You can’t downstream it and it be effective, so it has to be applied directly. For small jobs or roofs that can work and when it starts to break down the byproduct is Soda Ash which works very well as a degreaser.
5) The math is kicking your tail - for equivalent cleaning power 1 $4 lb of of SPC equals about 1.5 gal of cleaning liquid - the same $4 gal of SH will convert comparably into 12gal of cleaning liquid so when you do the math your cost is approximately 8 times the cost of using SH.
6) Dwell time - another disadvantage of the SPC is that to work effectively it needs to dwell approx 15min to work effectively at full strength. There’s a reason you have to keep moist for that long and also if you used in laundry detergent it’s recommended you let dirty clothes soak for hours. So when you’re washing a house can be a problem.
7) SPC is corrosive to certain metals, though not nearly as many as SH

As an older dude, one thing I’ve learned in life is try to make sure you have your facts lined up before you try to argue your subject. If you want to use SPC in all your washing endeavors, more power to you. But don’t come on here espousing that it’s more economical. In some parts of the country you may be able to fine people willing to pay the premium for the cost difference.

Also, since you’re in Atlanta, you should run by Georgia Tech while you’re there. They have a world class chemistry department there and I’m sure you could probably find some advanced student who could lay all of this out for you in very scientific terms. I spent way too many hours of my life there suffering through organic chemistry.

Wow, sorry to hear that. Glad she’s going to be ok. She and your Dad in for a long 6-7 weeks, though. When they tell her it’s going to take a full year to recover completely, believe them. And make sure she goes to ALL her therapy, unlike others I may know. Tell her the best looking dude in SC sends her well wishes.

Sorry about your Mom William. That sounds like a brutal fall.

As far as SH destroying plastic, that’s a bunch of crap. This is the all-plastic injector I use to downstream SH. I run straight 12.5% through it for every job and change the screw in orifice if I need to change the strength. I’ve used the same two for over 2 years now with zero issues. I don’t even fully rinse them after a job, just pull the hose and let it suck air for a few seconds. Hundreds of houses and they still work perfectly.

You said Doug Rucker made a mess with SP but the survey says… That was a lie. I see you aren’t defending your Doug lie. Keep spraying SH and I’m going to keep saving with SP. I’m not here to argue like school children. You came on my post acting like a teenager. I have stated nothing but facts.
