Local Hockey arena...

15 year old carpet (or more)

Never professionally cleaned...they have scratched away at it sometimes with a portable...

Tried all kinds of tools....even prevac was futile....

Tried scrubbing...tried some padding...couldn't even prespray and agitate....

Spray and Zipper SS Super Spin was the magic...and talk about dirty!

And worn!

worse water I ever dumped was from a roller rink.

It left a slap of candy like coating on the field out back for months.

the ants loved it.

Finished it yesterday just in time for our 6 pm day care job....which was right across the road thankfully because we were wrapping up hoses at 5:56 pm when I was looking at the time.

Out of 15 years of dirt....I hope I got at least 5-7 years out :dejection: :errf:

and the gum....some of it I think was being kept for future museum display....it was yuck!

I know how you feel. That was exactly how the water from my Walmart job looked. I'm surprised Mike isn't harassing you on not using a Cimex. If he does, tell that Punk to go polish his trophy with a Cimex

Sorry for the jibberish at midnight eastern time. Im stuck here at a camp with the fam. We got one of those octagon shaped cabins for the fam, and they made us share the second half with another family we dont know. They can't stop making noise. So im out here in the truck, trying to settle down and sleep, so i can hit a mountain bike trail tomorrow

Finally last week

So when is the next scheduling? :stir:

Nothing grinds my gears more than a carpet cleaning job waiting 90-180days to pay a measly small invoice.... We've been used to waiting for insurance checks from WDR but people who make us wait for carpet cleaning money don't get frequented as often..... We've made it a point to get paid 30days from completion for commercial work...

If they were to ever call again, they're definitely gonna get a "no" from me.

Same price for 40 minutes of mowing the lawn...
If , and that's a big IF the ever call again, I would if I had a Cimex. But waaaay back to our original discussion...I can't comprehend how a cimex will make it look any better right at the door entrance where there's so much soil, you can't see any carpet. I understand that cimex will push the dirt farther down, making it look cleaner. But what if there's nowhere for the dirt to go? That would be my worry. For the rest of the carpet there, a Cimex would be awesome and save me a ton of time.

But back to "if" I get a call again...The lady that called me is more than likely getting laid off after working there for 30years. They're laying off 7000people all over the country. I know that's not a lot of people, with how many walmarts there are. But my point is, Walmart is getting more and more stingy with their money. They Probably cried when they had to send me that $400check. So I doubt they'll call me again. But IF they do, a Cimex will be going with me
