The problem is, water by itself doesn't remove all your prespray or the soils it's loosened up. Just think of how long it takes to rinse shampoo out of your hair. Are you really rinsing the carpet that well?

It’s the rinse nomad was talking about. Ahh never mind who am I kidding... I get the idea.
I'm so lost. My rinse is liquid, not powder.

good quality alkaline rinse metered light rinses best .
Stop with your overuse of delimo pre-sprays , learn how to use a wand right, and resoil won't a be a problem .
nor will you have any other issues either

It seems like a waste of space on the shelf to have two different acid rinses Just pick one
I ordered the non-acid by accident. They all look alike. But still. My results are Titty Pink.
Matt. I agree with you that it gets confusing. It took me a long time of experiementing around to find what works best for me. I’m pretty comfy now.
So I just cleaned this place and forgot to turn on my rinse. I guess we’ll see how Code Red works with only Shasta County Well water rinse.

Different purposes.
- The acid rinse with detergent will have more cleaning power, will leave more residue, yet will neutralize alkalinity and leave a soft touch.
- The other will leave less residue (no detergent) and act more as a dye stabilizer, alkaline rinsing neutralizing and leave the fabric (upholstery in particular but not limited to) more ready to accept Teflon. It will however rely solely on the pre-spray to do the heavy lifting.

That's still too complicated. Just combine them and you got the best of both worlds.Different purposes.
Norman 74 sensed it but not quite verbalized it. As he said- it left him "Titty Pink". Whatever that may mean

Isn't that still too complicated?

My thinking is , Why do you need a detergent rinse at all? If your prespray ain't cutting it, then get a stronger prespray. You should not need a rinse for a cleaning boost. Acid is a different story. It breaks down the pH, prevents browning, and leaves the carpet soft.
UGH!

Because some of us found (and some disagree. you'll have to form your own opinion) that some pre-sprays do not flush very well with just water. Just based on my experience. So a little cleaning boost by the rinse, imho left the carpet cleaner and the "residue" was minuscule. As a matter of fact in my experiments at home the mild alkaline rinse looked better and stayed clean longer (very slightly). And less re-appearing stains.
Others feel differently.

do you clean a lot of natural fibre and nylons? use an acid rinse
do you upsell protector? use an acid rinse
do you clean white trash hell holes? use a detergent rinse
do you like doing extra passes to remove prespray? use a water rinse
