A senior place asked me to clean all their common area carpet to use up the leftover budget. Can you do that before December 31st? Yes, I can.

I do not see anything wrong with the forward pass. Triggering on the forward pass is not unusual. It just depends on the soil load. The only thing I would change is picking up the wand after each pass.
Yeah, I'm gonna have him work on leaving it on the carpet once he has this motion perfected.

I'll be taking the Bedazzled Jeans on a 2-3day NYE party binge :eekk::icon_twisted::very_drunk: :very_drunk::rockon:----

That is if Omicron or my better judgment doesn't derail the plans. :errf::dejection:

Part of me wants to surrender to the inevitability that we all might catch it anyway-- So live life, and whatever happens happens. 🤷‍♀️

that's because you're stoopit



that's because they're stoopit too

I will sometimes remove the Vac hose from the wand to soak the spot deeper in order to remove more of the spot and avoid wick up.

While cleaning area rugs in my shop I was shocked to learn-- that it takes alot of water to reach the underside.

On Some carpets and rugs-- its just good practice to get down in there to get the nasty stuff out.

short chop strokes bearing down on the wand.

otherwise, if one is using quality pre-spray in sufficient quantity, a forward triggered stroke only makes it wetter, not cleaner

absolutely.
Triggered forceful chop stroke does it

Chop strokes are for kids and hacks--😉
It causes shoulder pain and fiber distortion.
Like I said, cleaning area rugs has improved my carpet cleaning skills.

As I've gotten older, I've learned that Finesse is sometimes better than brute force.

It's Chemical reaction, water and suction that removes the nasty stuff.

I'm smart enough to remove the extra water I put down. A dev pro wand with site glass or water claw helps with this necessity .

Do you realize you’re talking carpet cleaning with a painter?

It'll be fine. When a wheel falls off down the road, you'll know where those extra nuts go.
1 bolt and 2 rubber bump stops?

the bolt could be for the safety chain which I've attached through bolts that hold drawbar coupling

dunno what 2 rubber things are? No way to attach to chassis opposite spring and axle and too soft for that purpose anyway?
