olefin pains

[adamh]

I have tried everything, but some Olefins will not look great. I really hate right in front of the couch.

Today I threw everything but straight bleach on it and could only get 80%. I want more. The chem guys really need to find a fix for this crap.

Please let me in on your Olefin secrets.

When nothing works...its most likely scratched and nothing will work.

I try hard to explain it in a simple way to customers what might be happening with that dirty are on their olefin..(before cleaning)

Some will understand some will not and think I'm a loser and don't know how to clean carpets. "because the last guy got it out". But funny the last guy is not in business and the carpet was only a year old then...now 5 years later it won't come out because its worn..

My olefin secrets? You mean the ones that took me decades to perfect? Yeah okay I'll share. I spray down a really good prespray. (Soils and Oils boosted with oxy booster) I scrub with 175 floor machine using a fiber plus pad I got from Rick G. I extract using the emulsifier dijor, whatever's on sale. I then extract using a Powermatic 2100 with temp set at 200° and a VT14 wand with a fifteen flow. And when that doesn't make it look great I hit it with some Blast from Vac A Way and run over it with a glad pad under my 175. When it starts bad it never looks new but I get a lot of compliments and a whole bunch of "it never looked that good since it was new"

I see no reason for any "Olefin" specific formulas.



just scrub the heck out of it and or REX it.
