Applying protector to an encaped surface...

August 1 2011 at 12:44 AM		 Matt  
A thread over at ICS is touching this subject, and I would love to get some clarification on some of the comments...

"applying a topical protector over the top of an encapsulated cleaned carpet would totally defeat the ability to vacuum the encapsulant out of the carpet."

any truth to this?

Also, can I just add Soileze to my Cimex (if the above is NOT true) and have good coverage? Should people still not walk on it till dry, i.e. I need to run the cimex so im not walking onthe already cleaned path???

Thanks!

Not a problem.Those fellas might not be fully aware of what a FLUORO-CHEMICAL accomplishes. The role of a good fluoro-chemical protector is to lower surface tension. Lowered surface tension can not be vacuumed away. OK, maybe a small amount could be vacuumed off. However the effect of the protector will remain after the crystallized residue has been extracted through post-vacuuming. The benefits will remain on the fiber.
