One Step

[Bill Robinson]

thanks who makes it

[carpet guy]

Good morning Bill, just glanced through some previous posts and wondered why you didn't use Ultimate Master, which is an excellent product and safe to use on wool.

You will find with wool, that after cleaning, it often looks darker than before you started, but, if cleaned properly, will lighten as it dries.

Did you vac both sides .
Did you use hand tool.

Agree about Um

[Bill Robinson]

havenet got um yet will order it asp .i hoovered to 3 times never thought to hoover under it .i used hand tool then wand then hand tool again. what pre spray would you use  and how long would you leave it on.your right about it being darker ive noticed it is getting light there is a bit of staining i will try to get out again.did you want to see a pic of it

Not suggesting you go out and buy U/M it's just that you mentioned using it in a previous post.

Put it face down and vacuum thoroughly then lift up ........... you can lift and clear away dust then repeat 5 or more times

This was moth eaten rug that customer has sentimental attachment ........... back vac'd 7 times in all ........... prior to MP prespray, brushed with Duo and rinsed with water only ............ even i was astonished at result 

[John Kelly]

Save your money on the um it won't do any better job than one clean. Is this an Ikea rug, if it is don't knock yourself out as they don't even look clean when new.
Rugs need thorough vacuum as Chris said both sides.

[Bill Robinson]

no i never said i had used it um i asked if you can use it on wool rugs

[Bill Robinson]

Put it face down and vacuum thoroughly then lift up ........... you can lift and clear away dust then repeat 5 or more times 

wow will do that from now on

[psg]

I would be more concerned about the rats that where ripping the trim from the rug.

Little Yorkie, probably as old as the rug itself 

[Doctor Carpet (Ret'd)]

One reason for taking rugs away to clean is if once you've dried it you can see exactly how well it has come up and if neccessary clean again.

Just not possible when cleaning in situ apart from risking a "call back".

Vacuuming was vast improvement on that rug 

Could have wiped it over with a flannel and it would have looked better ......... have done loads of work for this customer and that rug is the one her first dog used and now has passed on to 3rd Yorkie .................... memory value, not money value .......
smaller house next door to hers, recently sold for 1.2 m so i think she knows good service and value when she sees it  :
