You don't want to put a dry pad on a poly carpet. You'll cause friction burn and distort the nap.

Okay, so I spray the carpet and then hit it with plain water pads.

Throw the pads in the washer... Take them out when it's done and use them with that level of moisture. Once your jiggler gets here spray the carpet where your going to start & spray the pad. Place the pad wet side down on the wet carpet & start the machine...

What kind of jiggler did you get?

Almost "drippy" wet. Use the glider between the pad and carpet, velcro side up.
