Hello all.
I rented a rug doctor to clean my RV last week. It did a great job. That is until I returned the machine, Came back to the rv when it was dry to find it looking 100% worse. Well after doing a little research online I am guessing it is wicking. That being said, I realized my neighbor had a Bissel steam cleaner. He let me borrow it for the week. I cleaned this carpet at least 15 times with this thing over the last week and every time the same results. Looks great right after I clean it, And brown spots in the high traffic areas when it dries. Even after cleaning the carpet so many times, It still seems to be pulling up a ton of dirt. Either that or it pulling the backing through the carpet. I have no clue, Any advice would be great. And I know some of you are going to say call a pro, But its too small of an area to waste there time, Not to mention I will be pulling the carpet out at the end of winter to put in hardwood. Thanks JEFF |

Is it possible that I am pulling the backing up through the carpet?

Its not the first carpet I have cleaned. There is just something funky going on here.
I am just going to tear it out and throw hardwood down in its place. Thanks JEFF |

You do not want to start that argument with me. I have been a hardwood flooring contractor for the past 10 years. I tear out dirty nasty carpets and replace them with hardwood for a living. I have refinished floors as old as 220 years and made them look new. You find me a 220 year old carpet that you would lay on. So yeah its way cheaper to install a product that will out live me, Then to keep replacing carpets. Not to mention carpets hold dirt and dust mites and all type of things that I do not want living with me. Where I come from its a tax right off to tear out your carpets and replace them with hardwood if you have allergies. JMO JEFF |
