Like your philosophy Nightrider. I groom the prespray and I groom at the end. It assists in the drying time by allowing airflow. |

| LeeS.....surely you dont "groom" your prespray on every job. Grooming is to enhance the looks....and it would be a waste of time to do before the rinse. Im sure you mean "agitate"....but anyway....you do the entire carpet this way? or just the traffic and heavily soiled areas? |

What wrong with the swirl marks...it seems grooming only knocks off 30 min of drying time(from my test?) ------------- http://www.PanhandleFloorCare.com - http://www.PanhandleFloorCare.com http://www.Pensacola-Carpet-Cleaning.com - http://www.Pensacola-Carpet-Cleaning.com |
