wall to wall wool in high end condo

[Kevin K]

I've only used the Cimex residentially once; I had it on the truck after a commercial job. We had a large empty house to clean; the upstairs was nylon cut pile and the lower level was a pink wool looped carpet throughout. VERY heavy yellow/brown traffic lanes that I told the client not to expect much of a difference.

So I set up my tech upstairs cleaning very clean nylon with the truckmount (he was happy, since he felt he was getting the better end of the deal!), and I lugged the Cimex into the home. Mainly because of some of the guys down under posting here about the Cimex and encap on wool. Using DS and beige Fiber Plus pads, the entire carpet (3 large areas) literally came out looking new! (to this day, I still haven't forgiven myself for not bringing a camera to that job). I was done and had the Cimex back on the truck before the tech got done upstairs.

Back then, I didn't have any bonnets for the Cimex. If I did the same job today, I would use the bonnets instead of the pads. IMO, they would leave the carpet a little softer, drier, and remove some soil. Better for residential work.
