I got this post card in the mail yesterday from Amazon & Stone chemicals….

still quite pricey compared to Kleen-rite chemicals on sale…. however, this 800 lb gorilla will keep suppliers and distributors more honest….

Happy Washing!

Stone is a reputable brand with good quality. I’m guessing this might be their way to be as available as the lines sold at KR, without being sold at KR.

Does Stone private label the soap products for KR…?
Not that I know of. I just meant it is a way for them to get wider distribution - but that’s just a guess on my part.

I've been told that Kleen-Rite branded chemicals are made by Simoniz. They are not rebranded products, they are made to Kleen-Rite's specifications.

I'm guessing many companies make it to their specs. JBS makes some of them. I think I was sworn to secrecy on that but whatever.....

I tried stone products years ago and was not impressed the rainbow line specifically. I will say the soap salesmen was good about following up and then I broke the news to them on how their product performed on about the 3rd follow up.

I had good results with one of their sealers years ago - forgot the name- it was vanilla scented. . Also liked their citrus shampoo. These were in a friction wash. I knew a few operators who liked their presoaks for touchfree. Blue demon and Kemade. I think there was a poster in this forum who liked the presoaks.
