Hello everyone  My name is Ross and I work in a 125 bed Long Term Care facility in Central Ontario. I am responsible for nearly 100,000 sq. ft. of Powerbond Carpet. Just wanted to say Hey and find out if there are other members from the Healthcare industry. I do mostly Hot water extraction and bonnet cleaning as my interm.

Welcome Ross.

Don't get me started on Powerbond. Any wicking problems?

Yes... major problems...but the bonnet cleaning seems to help. I find the summertime worse as the humidity rises. The powerbond seems to "sweat" and all the old stains that have been pre treated and removed, all seem to return.

Oh yeah. Summer. Nothing but wicking. Try an encapsulation cleaner like Tsunami. If you have any questions, call me. 807-625-1414. I'm in Thunder Bay

Thanks cmaster... right now I am using Scotlabs FoamDry encap.products. Have you used these before? Any thoughts? I am new to the encap. program and appreciate any and all feedback.

I haven't tried Scotlabs Products. I tried Tsunami and had decent results. I also found that a Steamin' Demon worked well for flushing out all the crap.
