I did two carpet cleaning jobs today plus 1 tile job.
On the carpets I used the same process of vac, prespray, cimex scrub and extract but I used one of the competitions encap cleaners instead of Punch. The end results after extraction very good but where I felt on yesterdays carpet with punch I could have stopped after the scrub and skipped the extraction had I wanted to, on both jobs today the carpets didn't look all that much better after the scrub, they didn't really pop until I extracted them. Neither of these were as dirty as yesterdays either so I can't help but wonder if this other product is just that inferior or if it was just because it was different types of carpet/soiling. I suppose some side by side testing is in order. On a side note, while I know the pads are better for commercial and Berber, I can't help but wonder if brushes might be better for pre scrubbing residential?
PS The other product seems pretty popular on the boards so I was really surprised by the results.
