How long does it take to clean my animal?
About 5 minutes or less in most cases, it really depends on the individual. Just spray eZall completely on your animal and rinse. People have so much fun they want to spray and spray but it is not really needed.
How much Total Body Wash do I use?
You should apply approximately 2oz per large animal. It does not hurt to use more.
You mean I never have to scrub?
If you have a heavy manure or grass stain simply take a little Total Body Wash directly from the bottle, pour into your hand and lightly work into the stain as a presoak before you spray and rinse.
Will I dry my animal out?
No, you can wash on a regular basis with Total Body Wash.
How many washing will I get out of Total Body Wash?
The 32oz is our trial size and is great for travel. You will get approximately 4-8 washings. The one-gallon size using our eZall Applicator/Foamer you will get 50-65 washings. The difference in washings depends on the individual using the Applicator/Foamer. In the beginning people like to really keep applying our product to their animal because it is so easy & fun to use. It is not necessary to keep putting product on over and over. Approximately 2oz per large animal are usually good enough. As so many of our customers have told us, this product is FANTASTIC and quite AMAZING.
Do I pour the Total Body Wash into the Applicator/Foamer straight or mix it with water?
Pour the Total Body Wash in the eZall Applicator/Foamer. It is a concentrate and the Applicator will mix it automatically with water as you apply it. The little colored plastic things in the underneath side of the black lid are called an orifice. They regulate the amount of product that is used. Yellow-HIGH water pressure, Blue-NORMAL and Green for LOW water pressure.
Can I keep refilling the 32oz bottle instead of purchasing the eZall Applicator/Foamer?
The 32oz trial size w/applicator is not anything like the Commercial Grade eZall Applicator. It is a great way to experience the amazing way our product works and is great for on the go, but is not really made to use over and over. We know once you try our product you will see the benefit of having an eZall Applicator. It will save you a tremendous amount of time & money.
What is a surfactant? Why are surfactants used in cleaners?
A surfactant (surface active agent) is a molecule that, when added to a liquid (water) at low concentration, changes the properties of that liquid at a surface or interface. Surfactants are used in cleaners to: (Basically it makes water wetter). Basically when you take surfactants (some examples of which are corn, soy, palm kernel oil), which is what our chemistry is made from, then mix it with water, it makes water wetter, thereby letting it penetrate faster and deeper, but very gentle, into the coat of an animal. Surfactants, when combined with water, lift hydrocarbons or (FOPS=fats, oils proteins & sugars or as we know it=DIRT) to the surface and we use the water to rinse it away. Another analogy: If you imagine taking oil and pouring it into a glass, then adding water to that same glass it would separate and the oil would come to the top. We are doing just that; when we foam on our surfactants with water, they go to the surface and lift the dirt; we then use the water to rinse the dirt away.
What are Hydrocarbons?
They are the simplest organic compound molecules (FOPS- fats, oils, proteins and sugars) which is dirt. They only contain carbon and hydrogen.
pH-What does it mean?
There is much confusion in regard to pH. What is most important is the reserve potential of alkaline or acid pH not the number itself. Therefore, an alkaline number of 10 or even 11 with a low reserve number (measurement of potential to do work) will not harm anyone, or anything. An acid product made with a plant enzyme that has a pH 1.8 is as safe for human skin as say 2% boric acid is for eyes because the acid reserve number is very low. As stated on our Total Body Wash page we feel the USEPA (DfE) says it all. We know of no other product in the equine or animal industry that can make this statement. Always remember that between 3.0-10.0 are considered a neutral range of pH. Here are a few examples to better understand the scale of pH: As you can see it is very diverse. We hope these facts help you to have a better understanding. Battery Acid 1.5, Lemon Juice 2.5, Vinegar 2.8, Perrier Water 5.5, Milk 6.5, Baking Soda 8.5, Sea Water 9.0, Evamor Water 9.5, Milk of Magnesia 10.5, Liquid Drano 11.0, and Ammonia 12.5 Caution: The optimum pH for bacterial growth is 5.5 to 7.0 Beware of any cleaning solution that has this pH for cleaning.
Why are there hardly any SUDS when I apply Total Body Wash?
Don't expect the suds you're used to getting with other products. Suds actually restrict the cleaning and conditioning that hair requires, because suds cling hair shafts together. You'll see the difference Total Body Wash makes as it separates each hair shaft providing much needed individual attention. Rinsing is a breeze, saving you a tremendous amount of time, effort and money.
I don't see many suds when I apply Total Body Wash?
You will not see a great deal of suds like you get with other products. Suds actually restrain the cleaning and moisturizing that hair requires, because suds clump hair shafts together. You'll see the difference Total Body Wash makes as it separates each hair follicle providing much needed individual attention. Rinsing is a snap; saving time, effort, water and money.
Does your product have have sodium lauryl sulfate or sodium laureth sulfate in it?
None. SLS & SLES (Look at your shampoo bottle and you'll see in most cases it listed near the top of ingredients.) Soap as everyone knows is very drying and many of the leading products have this ingredient in them. Consequently, it will end up producing more sulfur compounds. Why are they placed in products? They make them foam, the big companies think you won't wash with a product that doesn't FOAM! SLES & SLS has no other use than to make FOAM. Both Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS) and its close relative Sodium Laureth Sulfate (SLES) are commonly used in many soaps, shampoos, detergents, toothpastes and other products that we expect to "foam up". Both chemicals are very effective foaming agents. SLS and SLES are esters of Sulphuric acid - SLS is also known as "Sulfuric acid monododecyl ester sodium salt", however there are over 150 different names by which it is known - see them at toxnet.nlm.nih.gov . In fact, SLES is commonly contaminated with dioxane. SLES is somewhat less irritating than Sodium Lauryl Sulfate.
What are the characteristics of the product that make it possible to treat fungus, skin irritations and substantially reduces flies?
What you are witnessing is a very typical response from the use of organic surfactants. Our organic's lack of irritants, reagents and oxidizers (which are very typical in other salt-based formulations or those containing petroleum derivatives) make it very skin friendly. The use of plant based fatty acids and alconolamids is very soothing to the skin and helps to clean out cuts and abrasions without irritating them when they are rinsed with clean water. Additionally, it has been observed that organic products do not promote bacterial colonization including fungal growths because they are natural inhibitors to micro-organisms (the nature of surfactants to break surface tension of the cell rozetta or lining). Our products are derived nearly entirely from organic source materials from soy, corn, palm, walnut, almond, potato and other seed source derivatives.
