Bring all your questions of difficult stains that you come across or struggle with and hear how easy it really is to remove them with the proper knowledge.

New Cleaner by Newline

Have you tried our new Alkaline cleaner for tile, grout, and stone? Newline's Hi-Test cleaner is not only the most effective and concentrated (8 to 1) tile pretreatment in the market but it also is perfect for those who utilize portables. Hi-Test not only has a RTU pH of 12, we had is designed to have minimal to NO foam while cleaning to prevent overflowing of your waste tank. This helps prevent premature failure of vacuums and blowers. I cant tell you how often we see damages in our service center that are directly related to contractors cleaning with high pH detergents without utilizing a defoamer. What happens is the foam rises above the float or shut off in the waste tank and travels down into the vacuum pumps causing premature failure that is extremely expensive to repair. Hi-Test is also safe for use on all types of natural stone making it a perfect "stone soap".

I personally utilized this product in my shower and house. I have a golden retriever that has covered our lanai with oil from her coat. As soon as I sprayed the Hi-Test down at a dilution of 8 parts water to 1 part Hi-Test it was pure amazement from me and my wife. As soon as the chemical hit the surface it immediately suspended the oils up like grease. It was actually pretty gross but still amazing. As far as the shower goes, as soon as I sprayed it on the shower walls made of Travertine it melted away the soap and hard water build up without any dwell time. Therefore I recommend this product to anyone not to mention we have it on sell until the end of April at 20% off making it by far the best "Bang for your Buck"!

Currently at Excel Cleaning & Restoration Supplies we are hosting our 1st CMA and CMR school in 10 years. BestTrainingSchools is currently instructing their Mold Assessor and Mold Remediator class that preps the professional contractor to sit for the CMA and CMR exams through the National Organinzation of Remediators and Mold Instpectors (NORMI) and American Council for Accredited Certification (ACAC) formerly known as AIAQC. This class also contains a segment in Defective Chinese Drywall that I sat in on today and I must say that the situation is pretty serious. Defective Drywall could someday become a complete remediation project like mold but until someone decides on WHO is going to pay for it there will probably be improper work that could someday come back to haunt the contractor.



I advise anyone out there that is not up to date on the Florida Mold law that is effective July 1st, 2010 call the DPBR and get more info or call on us at Excel Cleaning & Restoration Supplies for more details. As for Chinese Drywall, their still is not a "standardized procedure" to deal with it although we hear that it is coming soon. The main problem is finding someone to accept responsibility and pay for it!





I will be blogging to keep you all up to date as we hear any news!



Thank you for your loyalty and business!!!!!
