Welcome to the forum, Harold. I, too, have been around carpet cleaning for quite a few years (since about '93). I used to be one of those cleaners who believed that if it wasn't cleaned with a truckmount then it wasn't really cleaned.
However, I started messing with encap back in ... 2004? Anyway, chemistry has come a long way in those years in the cleaning industry and encap is no different. A quality encap product will leave no residue.
If you don't currently utilize VLM aas one of your methods, I encourage it. Not to replace your TM, but, as Rick mentioned, to add to your arsenal. Once you learn it, I promise you won't regret it.
