Jarred you need to first open an account on Photobucket.com then you up load you pictures there. Once they are up loaded there it, gives you three options of code, you want the img code for this board. Copy and paste it here and you see your image.

It's fast and easier than it sounds and Photbucket is free.

Did you clean it with cotton shampoo?

Looks like it may be cotton.

You should do a fiber ID test BEFORE the cleaning to avoid these problems.

How wet did you leave it???

Dat stuff looks like it'll suck up mucho aqua and you'd have to force dry it.

No "wet it and forget it".......

youre absolutely right about the fiber test..I figured with the saphire acid side cleaner it wouldnt matter..but I guess i was wrong. Its from over wetting.

Jared what did it look like before you started? From the photo it doesn't look so much brown as it it does soiled. Was it heavily soiled to begin with? or Did the cleaning leave it with the cloudy appearance?

I could be wrong, but this does not look like browning, it looks like soil that can be removed.

Did you pre vacuum?


How did you apply the Sapphire acid side cleaner?

spray it on and agitate with horse hair brush?

or just run it through your extractor?

what did you rinse with?

Did you pre vacuum?

did you use air movers to facilitate fast drying?

P.S After googling this product, I will not be using it after I read the MSDS

P.P.S. did anyone else notice that scary looking shag rug in the picture?
