You have been doing this 20 years and you need advice on resurfacing spots?

How did it look when you left?
When exactly in the last week did the spots reappear?
Like Lee said, they still have the cat, are they in the same locations as the old spots?

Could be the client spotted and moved it into pad.
Could be your pre treat did (if heavy.)

Doesn't matter much now.

You can either bonnet with an encapsulation product (less time.)
Or a heavy flush (water claw would work if you have one.) Or just a lot of flushing and lots of dry passes.
Toweling off at end and fast drying will help.

Also you may want to leave a thick layer of towels on top, weighted down to have it wick into towels.
All depends on how much time you want to spend.

Happy clients.
Priceless.

Was that really necessary Frank?

No it wasn't neccessary.
Yet I am curious how after 20 years cleaning carpets, and 4 years active on this board, there is a question on how to deal with wicking.
No offense meant by it.
