gunked up solution.
If you use powdered pre-spray or detergents, over time they can get gunked up, what do you do then ? Break them up and use them anyway ? Throw them out ? if you throw them out, where do you dump them ?
I got some big jar samples from different manufacturers that I used some and I just realized a couple of those jars the powders has hardened up.

Re: gunked up solution.
Moisture causes the powders to harden, just beat those jars on the ground like you would your ex mother-in-law and problem solved!! And sometimes it takes a good stabbing with a big flat screw driver (you know like your ex-wife lol) to completely turn them back into powder.

Re: gunked up solution.
Why throw them out??
If it caked up it probable has absorbed too much moisture. Put it in a larger container and start to break it up little by little and try to dry it out.
At the least use it mixed strong in a sprayer bottle as a spotter or as a booster of sorts.

Dave, LOL, Goomer and Joe thanks for the advise, I had little bit of extreme clean and little bit of pro zyme left, they work OK, not great, I was going to throw them out but didn't know where to properly dump them so I did what you guys suggested, break them up and mix them with my regular stuff, Goomer's idea is actually perfect, next time I'll just use them as spotters, thanks guys.

Re: gunked up solution.
I have never had that problem with Powders. That is all I use and have been since 2007 and have never had any do that. But I do live in Utah and it is pretty dry so very little humidity.
Re: gunked up solution.
Break it into chunks and run it through an old food processor. Goodwill sometimes has them for 2-3 dollars.
Re: gunked up solution.
Tim, I usually don't have that issue with my regular pre spray that I use every day, but the extreme clean was sitting a while, the pro zyme I think I got it early this year from Jon don for free and I used about a little more than half then it was sitting for almost 10 months
Eric, I have to start visiting goodwill then or just have to tell Jon don to stop sending me stuff I don't need

DP I use both of those, if you're looking for a good home for them, it's the same home where they do your filter mods!.

If that does not work, you could always break off small pieces and chop them into a fine powder using a credit card or razor blade......Eric Valentine wrote:Break it into chunks and run it through an old food processor. Goodwill sometimes has them for 2-3 dollars.

And then use rolled up dollar bill to funnel them into the chemical jug ?Goomer wrote:If that does not work, you could always break off small pieces and chop them into a fine powder using a credit card or razor blade......Eric Valentine wrote:Break it into chunks and run it through an old food processor.

Actually, to do it properly your nose has to be used to make the transfer.......that's what I've heard anyway!dp1 wrote:And then use rolled up dollar bill to funnel them into the chemical jug ?Goomer wrote:If that does not work, you could always break off small pieces and chop them into a fine powder using a credit card or razor blade......Eric Valentine wrote:Break it into chunks and run it through an old food processor.
