How long will you leave prespray in your inline sprayer before dumping it? I usually dump it at the end of the day, but if you have a job the next morning or even the following Monday after a Friday job that requires the same formula, i.e. Extreme and H2O2, will you mix fresh or dump? How long does it take to deteriorate in the jug?

Much obliged.

I use liquid PS and add powders as boosters as needed, so I carry two extra containers of PS on the truck. So basically I dont throw out PS.

Seems I've wasted a lot of chems over the years. Mixed fresh prespray and rinse every day.

I think if it's sealed in the hydroforce jug it will last as long as you want.
Just shake it when you want to use it.

But if you add something like peroxide then I would refresh it

I've now lost count of how many carpets I've encapped with just water running through the machine and the wet microfiber pad.

I go to refill the jug and my 8-oz cup of super duper pixie juice that's still sitting there from the last supposed fill up...

You should be more alert?

Usually I don't have much left especially when using 4:1, but when I do, I just mix up a new batch and add it in for a little boost, unless it's someplace with nice carpet. Then I'll just dump it in the waste tank and mix a new batch to the carpets needs.

The soap salesmen sure do respect that you are reliable in keeping your prespray fresher than a loaf of bread in your cabinet.
