Wow that was close
« on: June 04, 2011, 09:14:38 pm »
Did 2 white rugs on our driveway this afternoon, one a customers (wool) and one ours (synthetic). Used the same process on both, pre vac (and yes with a dyson ;D),  hose down, hot pre spray (power burst), scrub with rotary, hose off, extract and blower dry.
The wool one has come out a treat.
Ours developed brown lines on the face side :o
Both were put face side down on cotton dust sheets.
After a minor panic I rubbed the brown lines with hot oxibrite and they went.
I would put a picture up but can't find how to do it.

look familiar !  I'v had a similar experience some time ago ..  but never before or since ... it could be peculiar to this one rug/type/brand or backing combination ?
