Bone dry cos they only show it the hoover.

It's just marketing. Ever seen Ainsley with his fairy (liquid). The burned on muck just falls off. :

Hi Alan,

You'll get very few positive comments on here about dry cleaning as most on here use hwe.
There's plenty of money to be made with dry cleaning. Market where you can sell the fact that it's quieter, quicker and the carpets are only left slightly damp.

Communal areas, hotels, offices etc...

I had an EOT clean yesterday which included carpets and to be honest i would  have used the ninja as the lounge carpet was in such a state, but there's no way i would have got it up the stairs.
So the only other option was my envirodri. The carpet came up great.

thanks for that arthur . i think with the whole world wanting everything sold with a green label then this system will do well.i intend to develop it more as an add on to the hwe work but have already found the convenience factor being appreciated by one of my x wifes in her pub(and by god that woman has some standards)and several others who appreciate the lack of setup and distruption it causes to their businesses.but as with all things in life and business if it makes you happy keep doing it and if it dont then stop.

Hi

Dry for almost 4 years in EOT, Pub & hotels.

I have only had 1 carpet I could not clean.

Funny how dry is put down by HWE but not the other way around.

Shame on you boys

It has its purposes and limitations.I prefere the Envirodri machine to the Host machine.But 80% of my work is HWE as it produces the best results.

Done this many times and shown a dedicated HWE'er how it's done and he could not believe it!

I would score the area first then prespray and pack Host on top. Leave for a while then brush with zebra or black brushes. Problem gone without soaking to death!

Hi Rod,

What prespray do you find works best?

Arthur

[The Great One]

Hi

Yep , same as rod.

Done a pub (11pm-3am) and got rid of black top.

Pub was chuffed to bits, also done a hotel resturant (400m) (West pier Hilton, now Holiday Inn) and got rid of black top and a stain that was 15 years old, left by a HWE CC, Hotel chuffed to pieces (me too)

But, guys, it's each to his own. Once I took my prochem course I did not want to be HWE, just a choice I made from the start.

I think Martin is to be congratulated, for bucking the trend, spending the time and the effort, developing something he believed in and after 4 years, I get the impression he has mastered a method of cleaning, which clients will love.

Many people chop and change, for years, seeking something that will probably always elude them, rather than becoming masters of their" tools"

Totally concur hats of to Larry (martin)

That takes me back Len..............I grew up in the late 50's , early 60's when we went out at night to cafes with juke boxes

Was it Del Shannon ?
