Get it clean, get it dry as one industry guru says. If its synthetic, it shouldn't be a problem.

Don't understand why you use both a prespray and an emulsifier.

Likely causing stiff carpets that resoil quickly.

I've tried different systems. Never had that problem. I did notice better cleaning though.

thats just the way i was taught.pre spray then scrub(stained areas) then i use my machine w/emulsifier then extract.

i try not to put down to much w/wand.maybe 2 passes.thats it.

I use a 2 ounce scoop of emulsifier for 10 gallons of water. I recover 80 to 85% of the water. I've cleaned anywhere between 2 to 3 hundred square feet. I prespray, but only in discoloured traffic areas. How much residue can I leave in that entire area? I don't figure much. The emulsifier I use is a powder, so it should return to a powder state and vacuum off. The increase in cleaning ability by proper use, not overuse, of an rinse agent is very beneficial.

Willy it is not the 85% you get out it is the 15% you leave in that can cause the problem.Guitar

JCOOPER,

LilNiteRidrhood is using safe for human cleaning technology. You will have to ask him for an explanation. Or you could just go here and read it http://www.cleanfax.com/article.asp?IndexID=6635271. It may enlighten you.

Use a prespry and a Rinsing agent in your tank. Clean it there if possible and dry fast if you have a blower. Like cmaster said .......if its synthetic, it shouldn't be a problem.
