What's the best smelling deodorizer in your opinion? Or better yet, which ones do the customers like the most. I think it's possible that there is a difference between residential and commercial settings, but I may be wrong. |

I hear Judson's deo's are some great smelling stuff. Although I haven't tried them myself. Right now we use Cobb's microbial and Odorcide. I like the scent of both of them -------------

The best deodorizers have no smell, a lot of people do not like perfumes! Have a smell in the carpet remove the source and the smell goes away ------------- DON ELDRED YOU CAN "STAND" ON OUR REPUTATION |

I agree that the best deodorizers are odorless (by definition, right?), but a lot of people don't notice the absence of an offending odor so well unless it's replaced by something else. Awhile back, Cleanfax did an article on this, calling it "psychological odor."  I used Odorcide for about a year. I liked it, but it wasn't as effective as I wanted it to be. It's good for minor odor issues because you only need a little of it. At higher concentrations, I don't think it's cost effective enough. I'm currently using Anti-Icky-Poo. It's about the stupidest name for a deodorizer I've ever heard, but it works amazingly well. After using Odorcide, Milgo, Envirox, Hydrocide, and following the whole Bridgepoint System (Bio-Charge, etc.) to the tee, I like AIP the best. It began as a consumer product, but they started manufacturing it for professionals about a year or so ago. You can check it out at www.mistermax.com. |

| I bought some at the local Chem supplier.. So far everyone loves the smell.. It's one of my freebee's.. But it is never combined if CitraZyme is used.. Orange scented booster.. |

Better make sure your customer wants a perfume smell before you apply anything, a lot of people to day DO NOT like it or have some reaction to perfumes. ------------- DON ELDRED YOU CAN "STAND" ON OUR REPUTATION |

| I agree. In this case, the customer gets happy feet over the smell. |
