Cleaned some coir matting for customer the other day, and 24 hrs later had call to say smell was all over house, why?? Told her that it was a natural product and when fully dry will be fine, anything else i can add to that as i will call her again soon.

Awful stuff and many won't clean it, stays damp forever and does smell musty and dirty. How about a light spray of Craftex lemon deodoriser to take the edge off it?

[John_Flynn]

Or send in a couple of Wet Dogs to make it smell sweeter???

Eeeee up John. Do you get better looking each day because you couldn't get any uglier     
Nicky still thinks you're that fat bloke. Put him back on, he was better looking for a start

Hey Gary that mi dad I got on now!!

Smell should go with time, but I would return and spray/cover the smell with a deordorizer of some sort.

Stop cleaning coir matting myself due to similar prob a few years back.

Why can't people use proper carpet?

I never attempt cleaning coir matting as the pile is so deep and loose which causes loss of suction at the cleaning head. This is why it stays wet and smells. I usually tell customers to hang it over something and use a pressure washer and then leave it outside in the sun until dry.
