Why are the mutually exclusive? You can't pre-scrub as a part of your VLM program?

But I might be misunderstanding you....

Scrubbing (agitation) is good.
It's the muscle in the cleaning pie.

If you prescrub with vlm and then use the zipper all you are doing is the OLD "Shampoo and Rinse" method.

If the jug of cleaning agent that you pre scrub with says Traffic Lane cleaner instead of Shampoo, does that make the scrub and rinse process show how different?

Lacking wisdom and 40 years of carpet cleaning experience, I do everything the hard way. But dadgum it, my mommy loves me, so there!

Maybe in Atlanta I can teach a Masterhack Class, with vacuums, pre-scrubbery from A-Z and various painfully slow methods of soil recovery.

Or not. There are so many mistakes to make, so little time..

Unless you read the other thread. Uh, don't read the other thread.

Yep, you could be right for once. Them rusty zippers can chafe, so I've heard. Had one shipmate who was in a hurry one cold morning and zipped his youknowwhat up, made him scream like a whistle.

Has nothing to do with carpet cleaning but a good yarn when you get all the details.

Besides, I use Releasit all the time and Rick and Shorty have both helped me out. Reckon they'll both be by to deny it and who could blame 'em?

Back pain is the worst. I've been dealing with it myself since late 2013.

Put a reel in the van and you won't have a portable - you'll have a mobile cleaning station.

tell ya what


spent five hours today maintaining truckmounts


I have a condition that causes me to get real noxious when on my back and focusing on things... Like belt changes, wrenching etc..



Actually had to vomit this time it got so bad..



a portable sounds real good right now....lol

Chronic back pain is a bitch.

And now that our nanny state is limiting the use of pain medication, there's no chance of relief short of surgery.

And my doc says not to have surgery because it never stops at just one.
