Marty the beige FiberPlus pads on the Cimex are totally safe. We have guys using the FiberPlus pads on their Cimex to wash delicate wool rugs in rug pits. So it's certainly safe for a nylon commercial cut pile carpet. A rotary machine could damage carpet, but a planetary machine is very different. In fact, the planetary action of the Cimex is totally SAFE for most fiber. As the drive platform turns clockwise, the pads/brushes spin counter-clockwise. You're scrubbing left and right at the same time. As you would be damaging the carpet - you're simultaneously un-damaging it. This left right scrubbing action is about as safe as you can get. Oh, and it's - it's highly effective at cleaning too! You'll be fine.
