Im currently using cobbs rinse. I put about 3glugs in the jug and set it at 2-3.

Is something wrong? Will this hurt anything in my chem injector?

The only way for you to tell if you're mixing too strong is if you start measuring and go from there.

I put a couple "glugs" of deodorizer in my rinse but that's a little different. You should be mixing the rinse close to the directions in my opinion.

That's one reason I brought this up. What could go wrong if my rinse was too potent?

Keep in mind, I've only been using a rinse for about a year. So I'm still new on that part

Just descale the machine and start measuring.

Is it a acid?

I use an emulsifier on carpet. I've heard it's much easier on my expensive equipment.

Looks good. Have you thought about tongue and groove at all?
Your goofy ass log cabin van

This plywood is thick compared to my trailer walls. I've got plenty of wood to anchor a screw to

The frustrating thing is gonna be where to put everything

Back to the acid. I know what too high of a ph does to carpet. But I never researched, nor remember in class, what too low of a ph in carpet does

Anything I should be concerned with?

What goes wrong is that you will be leaving too much product in the carpet causing it to resoil quickly

I have three trucking using it since it's inception, god only knows how much.

You used it for what, a week?


Operator error?

I used it long enough to watch all my fittings form a white crust. Plus the stuff smells like old feet. But if you like it, who cares what I think. I'm just here for the food.

I have a case of flex fire I'm slowing working through. I rotate it with my other stuff so it doesn't crust everything up. It works good and smells better than Ice, like watermelon , but still crusts things up.

A buddy of mine is house shopping here.
We looked at a place yesterday with a white poly pile that had just been "cleaned"..

Wicking, Browning, pee spots that should have came up, stinky...


No acid rinse going on for sure


Or dry strokes


Or pre vac...





Or a redo I'm betting
