What chemical to use?

[Clean Response]

I recently got a used hydro-retriever to clean up my shop/warehouse floor. Here is what I am talking about you see them at all the big box stores.

I am not sure what chemical I am suppose to put in the solution tank. I am just using water now and I noticed when I bought they were using something and I can not seem to find anything when I look online.

Do you guys know what to use or is it best to keep with plain water?

Thanks

Neutral cleaner and degreaser occasionally if needed.

Nothing special, just neutral cleaner or degreaser as needed.

Are the folks you bought it from not answering the phone?

I bought it from a government auction.

Well, when in doubt, always start with Procyon and work up from there.

When in doubt, don’t listen to him! Even Zep from Home Depot will do the trick in your auto scrubber. You can buy 4 gallons for the price of one of those. But, if you want a little better Betco’s PH7 is still a good neutral cleaner. 4 gallons to a case for $50. More economical for you 20+ gallon tank. Buy degreaser at Home Depot for no more than you’ll use.
