Thats it, Belgian Wiltons.

Allright here we go then.

Generally the carpets are fitted well, douible gripper  usually. But obviously no one with any real experience is going to want to do them, as I said I have a TM but dont want to do them because of the risk of shrinkage etc.

I usually use High Heat on pubs restaurants etc with a pre spray of Enzall in the dirty doorway areas.

Any real ideas as to what to do with BW's in restaurants etc would be appreciated.

Pre spray and bonnet buff works just fine for us. Never knowingly shrunk one.

Murky WHY if they are fitted well and they are cleaned properly there should be no problem

[murky]

Just generally worried about them thats all.

There must be a problem if no one else is doing them.

jasonl. What would you recommend prespraying them with? I've got a roto to buff with so that not a problem.

I prespray with Heavens best cleaner, but Mpower from theother channel works ok.

Asians, especially Chinese  have a concept called "face" which most people have heard of , yet few of us westerners comprehend.


This is what happened to my mum when she lived in China a couple of years ago..
She went to the dentist for a check up , she needed more work , but was flying back a few days later to England for a holiday, she could see from his diary that the dentist was fully booked until she went, but she asked anyway. At this point ,the dentist had to fit her in otherwise he would have lost "face".


Another example of this is Saddam Hussein, even though he was in an untenable , impossible position, he could never have surrendered, and believed he would be victorious even when (literally) in a hole.


We can apply this in our favour when quoting jobs for people of this culture type, ASK the customer ,if they can accept the price, it works , they cannot lose face.

Jason its strange how we are so different from so many cultures.I was always brought up to believe it took a man to admit he was wrong and if i was Saddam i would have held my hands up years ago.He looked absolutely pathetic when the yanks dragged him out of his hole.Still you make a good point regarding other cultures.Basically the more you understand your customer the more likely he or she is to give you work.             Regards Alan (swindon)

Smart people don't worry about being humiliated, it's getting what they want that counts.

it is my understanding that the nepalese/tibetans got to him first........(saddam)
 
then put him back in the hole for american troops/T.V to find him
