Acid rinses can be beneficial, especially when dealing with certain types of carpets and soils. They help neutralize the pH of the carpet after cleaning, ensuring a thorough and residue-free finish. This is particularly important if you've used alkaline cleaning solutions, as a balanced pH prevents re-soiling and leaves the carpet feeling soft.

Now, the timing and method can vary. Some prefer applying the acid rinse after the initial cleaning, while others incorporate it into the cleaning solution. It can indeed add an extra step, but many find it's worth the effort for the enhanced results.

As for the Bonnet Dry Clean method, if it's working well for you and your clients are happy, that's a victory! It's all about finding the balance between efficiency and delivering top-notch results.

Best Regards,

Good idea Doug, but Ted's got most of the pictures. One posted to show 77748 what is being talked about would help.

77748: No, the rinse water is where you meter in your acid rinse when you need it. This conversation is starting to resemble that old 'Whos on second ?" joke I love so much! lol

Mr. Steamer:  I think Ted sells PREHIDE. It hides the spots before extraction.  NO rinse necessary.Guitar

this is the HIDE you all are talking about...when you put soap in the water it HIDES everything..

what I use isn't hide it's pre-conditioner... thanks SG for clearing that up
