Couple of questions there.
Pre-spraying is still best. you need proper dwell time to allow good emulsivication to take place. I prefer clear water rinse after that. Stopping overspray is best accomplished 2 ways. Use a 60degree spray tip on your sprayer rather than the more common 95 degree tip. Switch to an electric sprayer that uses a 40 psi pressure. That way you will use much less chemical and it will go exactly where you wantit to go. An added benefit is you will not overwet the primary back of the carpet either, so dry times will be quicker as well.  ------------- Inventor of the Teflon Wand Glide and the Turboteck Rotary Air Duct Cleaners for TMs. |
