it's an industrial grade glue down i think, no pile to it really. i used a good pre-spray and a heated 550 psi porty |

Probably is an olefin carpet, producing wickback. You need to use an olefin cleaner and follow it up with a bonnet clean and acid rinse. Fibreclean makes both these products. KK can get them if they are not stocked by them, since they are made by Cleanco. Results are better if you use a pad instead of a bonnet with your rotary machine.Oh, and turn down the pressure. 550 is way too high for that kind of carpet with portable extractive power. I suggest you stay under 300 psi to be safe.Higher pressure is okay with the nylon carpets most of the time, but not this. ------------- Inventor of the Teflon Wand Glide and the Turboteck Rotary Air Duct Cleaners for TMs. |

DLD..... I agree with Kenny stay way under 500 psi... I'd do 150 psi... keep pre-spray to spots only...actually right now all you need is a good rinse because you have already cleaned it...and I'd throw a couple of air movers in to dry it up quick... humidity brings out the worst in us...just like carpet ------------- www.mr-steamer.com |

Like they said lower psi's... why you using 550 on a comm. grade glue down.???? vaccum.. a good prespray..agitate that baby in then hwe it.. you should be fine...Check this nasty rest. i did today....dried in 1hr.................

DLD Olefin is a prespray.........it is good for deep soil build ups, helps remove filtration soiling and reduces yellowing conditions.

This is ideal for using encapsulating detergents. If you use abonnet make sure its cotton or wool. |
