Hi

I did think that but wondered if a foam cleaner would speed things up

Pre-spray with Chemspec heavy duty soil lifter mixed 1:10, agitate, allow 10 minutes dwell and rinse with water then towel off. Pre spray 10 chairs at a time to let the system work in the time frame and then rinse in the same order.

I did some right mingers in a nursing home the other week, about 10 years of sweaty head grease!!!

Ended up using hot powerburst on the really bad sweaty head areas.

Mostly used craftex microsplitters and a good brushing though

The whole idea of using the foam shampoo is to save time by not having to rinse off. You brush or towel the foam into the fabric then you towel off or if you want to vac off just using the vacuum of your machine.

I like to use a crystalizing shampoo ,add some energizer, then apply using a window cleaners scrunge, brick sized sponge with scrub pad on one side.
The benefit of this is you clean all the curved edges really well.
You cn then towel it ,vac it or if it needs hwe with liquid high heat or similar. defoam in tank.
