Got most of it out, used Powerburst, reasonably happy with the result
Oh and £5 less than what some people charge to do a 3 bed  ;D

If it was synthetic I would have had better results, but wool tends to hold onto stuff a bit more, they had also been at it with a rug muncher.

Hay ha !! Have some hidden on my computer, will look back at them in a few years time I am sure, got plenty of pics of my new lady now though and no can't post them, I would get an instant ban  ;D
And thanks for the comments, I get a bit of stick on here, but I am good at what I do and I take a lot of pride in my work and as a result I earn good money and work for some pretty high end customers

Obvious, not from a photo.
Berber styles like that can be synthetic in which case they usually come up very well, or wool which can be harder to get a good result.

I presumed it was as well but reliably informed it isn't. Also thought I knew who King Troll CarpetPiles is but think i am wrong on that one as well.

Looks like Carper Piles has scurried off  :)

Nice job Mark.

With out sounding rude... personally I think it still looks dirty. If you look across the carpet you can still see the soiling and the marks on it. I would have shampoo/oxibrite/fibre buff after the extraction process to brighten the fibres more... but that's just me.

Not much point in breaking my back over it, it will be a complete mess again in a couple of weeks I bet  ;D
