Cream loop berber
« on: October 13, 2007, 08:53:32 am »
Hi all

This is my lounge diner carpet, which I'm going to have bash at this morning - still a newbie I'm afraid since my office cleaning has been so busy!

It's a buiscuit/cream type, very tight looped berber,  dirty in part from muddy shoe marks and general todddler type activity.

I have most of the prochem products (multi pro/ trafficclean/ double clean/ ff rinse) and I also have AMfoam and carpet shampoo from a+m.

I have a speedster + wonderwand. Ready to have a bash! Any hints?

Cheers


Owen

Hi

Before mocrosplitters i used multi pro on nearly every job.

So that & rinse with fibre and fabric rinse, just dilute as recommended on label.

You could agitate the pre spray with a pile brush, although these pre sprays dont really need it.

Was there ment to be a picture of the carpet?

Cheers for the reply Dave. No, no picture.

I have a sebo duo I could agitate with and I'll use the products as you suggested.

Thanks

Hi Owen
If it cleans up nicely,get a quality protector on it.

I would advise to watch carefully what's happening during the agitation stage. The Sebo brushes can be a little aggressive on berber style carpets. Start under the sofa first to see what happens.

Safe and happy cleaning :)

All went pretty well, except that results with the dirty shoe marks were limited - they faded a bit but are still quite visible.
I'm thinking maybe either try some trafficlean, hand agitation and extract with a hand tool, or maybe something from the prochen spotting kit.

Ken - I'm sure you'll have then answer!

Cheers
