Everybody wants the facts, and here they come: Job = printing industry, it's full time. Use to clean carpets with a portable Thoromatic, 2 vacs, it's was orange, with power head, years ago.  Bought a EDIC off craiglist. I do come from a cleaning back ground - father being a vac salesman along with sewing machines.  I'm not trying be the entrepreneur of clean.  What I need is some advice, and yes I do google.  Ph is 10 on the cleaning chemicals , how would I get it back to 7, cost effective,.... Oh what the heck, I'm tired of typing.

You could add small amounts of vinegar or acetic acid or textile rinsing agents.

Check it with litmus paper until you get your desired pH.

I forgot to put this in my introduction post - I'm not the smartest guy in the world, if I was I wouldn't need to google acetic acid.  And first off let me thank you for responding.  I'm going to make newbies look like rocket scientist.  So the rinse, a small amount, is applied how?  After hot water extraction, with a pump sprayer?  Added to the hot water tank with the cleaning solution?  I honestly was in the industry, and have cleaned a bunch of carpets mostly in the apt rental business (low pay and hard work, which is why I switched professions).  I got a ton of more questions if your interested, some questions will probably be dumber than the last.  Any advice you can give would be great.
