Encapman Help! - mark63 - 05-22-2014
I just used my makita polisher/sander with a hook and loop plate to clean Uph. I put a 8in bonnet on top of a fiber plus carpet pad, It did not work very well so I took the bonnet off. It was a microfiber couch & love seat so no problem (worked great with Bio-encap) My question is can I use the fiberplus pads for all my Uph? If not can you recommend something, I have some more Uph coming up. Thank You!

We have cleaned lots of "commercial" upholstery with FiberPlus pads. However I would be reluctant to recommend it for residential upholstery. Microfiber upholstery is typically pretty durable, but on a lesser fabric you may be asking for trouble using that approach. I normally suggest using the SOFT Rota Brush running gently over the upholstery with a drill operating at a LOW speed.

Can produce some nice results!

Thanks for the quick response. I have a rota brush I bought from you quite a while ago. Now i'll be using that on the more delicate Uph.
