Get a helper, let him prespray and scrub then you just extract, same with carpets

When he's stood doing nothing get him out dropping out Leaflets

On mingers try towelling off inbetween scrub and rinse - your results will be better, fabric will be drier (unless you use cfr/sapphire) & less water used in the tank.

We all know the dirty areas on upholstery head and arms front of cushion.

We tend to just give those areas a quick  pre-spray and then just extract them no rubbing that gets rid of some of the soiling.

Then pre-spray the whole piece.

It seems to work for us.

I hate cleaning upholstery would rather clean carpets.

We walk into upholstery jobs with sprayers charged, spray  the worst areas as soon as the initial chat/inspection is complete, then  set up all equipment, the maximised dwell time helps. 

For really bad head grease/arms we apply leather cleaner and brush in, it never fails.

We only pre vac the crevices on upholstery.
