I feel like a giant idiot that I don't know the answer to this....
I did an inspection for a whole house cleaning for a smoke job I am doing at 10:00am 1-1-09. They said the carpet in the living room needs to be dry cleaned because it is made from corn. They say it is the greenest carpet available, and it is synthesized from corn. It feels softer like nylon but feels light like poly. It has been down for one year and is not crushed or matted in the traffic area (Low traffic room though) and the customer said it was a less expensive carpet.
What are the rules on corn carpet? Treat like nylon, acrylic, poly, ole, wool, cotton, jute, mohair, pig hair, baboon nards?
I plan on doing a burn test tomorrow just to see if they were lied to or if it really is a new thing... I am embarrassed to say I haven't ever heard of it yet....
Sorry for the novel, any help would be greatly appreciated.
