I wrote about this client a while back, fuzzy wool Berber/Dyson...yadayayda ya da.



Anyways the Inspector they got concluded that the construction is fine and it just needs shearing.

I dont know why he didn't refer someone but it's fallen into my lap to locate one for the owner.



Any suggestions?

Ray Morgan sounds like your man. He is down around L.A. somewhere.

TO fly a guy to the bay area from LA just to shear 3 small rooms cant be cost effective.


Should I tell them to get a bag of Gillette shavers and have at it?

I've sent you a pm with a tel # of a guru, Fred, that can help you.

If you go the electric clipper route get one that has a "rug blade". Fred would be able to advise you on that score too. Handy little tool.

If you want a demo at next years MF that might interest a few.

Although I don't recommend this, I have heard of it being done (in a pinch) with one of those clothing shavers from J C Penny that is normally used to take the fuzz balls off of sweaters.

These shavers do work well on some upholstery with pilling issues, but I wouldn't want to use on 3 rooms.

Ray has shearing on his web site and how to do it. Maybe you can just rent a shearer from him and have it shipped to you.

Fly Shorty over here mate. Give the Guy a glass of something or other and I am sure the price would be right.

Embroiderers have a stitch removing shear.......kinda small, but it works.
