Encap on wool is very hot in Australia.

Is there another way ???

Best way to go IMHO

Don't be tricked though, AUSTRALIAN wool carpet is not made with AUSTRALIAN wool.

AUSTRALIAN wool is from Merino sheep mainly, and, as such, is to fine for wool carpet.

It is usually made for the garment (clothing) industry.

Most of our wool carpet is New Zealand wool which is much coarser.

This also has a mix of English & Scottish wools in it (most times).

Many advantages of using the Cimex and Releasit on wool carpet over HWE, especially in a commercial setting.

Cheers,

Shorty.

I've seen the light, and changed my wicked ways.

blends as well

Those wool blends (especially the "sisal" type) come up great with encap.
One thing I have noticed is that on cut pile wools the cimex can be a little hard to control....

Is there anything that "should not" be done to this wool?
