Most of the time here's what I do...
-prespray
-edge using 2" vac hose from Truckmount. This gives it a little dwell time.
-RE my way in, in a very random way. I focus on the traffic areas and go back and forth and up and down to properly scrub the deep down filth out of the carpet.
-RE my way out. This time I'm totally off the trigger and back my way out of the area. I'm much less random at this point because this is how a lot of customers see it before I groom. I try to make it look pretty uniform and professional. Almost all pics are taken after the dry pass but before grooming.
-9 times out of 10, the vac hose gets the corners and edges just fine. In the few cases where there's serious soil in a corner or filtration lines or that little space between a furnace vent, then I will use the wand (or some Avenge with a white rag).
-I place a fan to dry while I'm move to another area. I like to leave the swirls for a while, often until finished, so the homeowner can admire my handiwork!
-Then I groom the carpet and collect the check
