Here is my home made marinator. Note the nice shade of yellow developing. For those of us who can't afford a wash tub. Soaking in Ultrachem Labs neutralizer.

We would wash them in a Wascomat washer, tumble to fluff on cool, groom and hang.
Yours came out pretty good though!

We don't have any large commercial washing machines available anymore. I used to have one where I would bring my flokatis, even up to a 9x12 but they have been closed for a couple of years. They would even card the rug for me.

We had our own laundry setup for processing dirty towels for fire damage restoration. They would do a load every couple of days.
Having them available for smaller 9x12 or under was just a bonus.

I used this as a wash tub. But getting the wet rugs out was a bitch.

Put a pond liner over the rug and suck the water out, just like the cushion in a garbage bag trick.

Y’all have been talking about laundry. If jimmy was still around, he would have had expert input

Is he too busy doing it? Or too busy sticking needles in his Marty doll?

That's good juice.Nice job Ron. Ultrachem went through a lot of changes when the sons took it over and moved it to California. John Shieh is a knowledgeable man, so was Ian Marshall. They both had doctorates in chemistry. I spent some time working with Ian to train salesman. I always got lots of free chems and did little work those days. They make great floor finishes too.

Seems to do a great job breaking down the urine and making it easy to flush out.
