Title: blood extraction...
Post by: tim handley on February 28, 2016, 11:50:46 am
just done a really nice sunday morning emergency blood job, two rooms, one mattress, one rug, droplets of blood all over, no pool/puddles, came out fine, using enzall dwelled and cold water extraction. I know its cold water when dealing with blood stains but just wondered, is it best to cold water extract as well?  what im really asking, if i used the magma and hot water at extraction stage would this speed it up or cause problems setting the stain?? ps blood problem solved for client, unable to solve the " husband has left me due to my getting ped, leading to the blood situation" problem....... :o very large gaff, wealthy couple, trouble at t"mill..

Enjoy the call back  ;D

Bloody is relatively easy to remove but make sure you fully dry the area before you leave.  When you first put the airmover on it, more often than not you'll see it wicking back. Give it a quick rinse then put the airmover back on. Should be gone for good then.

All depends on the depth of the stain and the type of carpet too.

got to be honest, only ever had one call back for blood, had to go back twice, and charged accordingly having  pre warned client,
it was  very very bad, large puddles soaked right in, but it came out, everyone was happy!!!!

Stick with cold water although you can get away with lukewarm but not hot.
