when less is more and I feel like shit.

[Mikey P]

had a project to day where both the selling and buyer's agent are my fans.

three dogs, puppies every six months two cats, a Rug Doctor, Capture, Luv My Carpet, every spotter you've ever seen, Alabama transplants.

I tried to talk all three parties out of it but the new owner wants it done for what ever damn reason her 75 year old mind can come up with.
Most goobers would whip out their water claws and supercides and soak the liven hell out of it thinking they were going to be heros and flush the pad with enzymes and 02 ...


and just end up over wetting this mess and causing a deadly stink and brown out.

When the 75 year old did the walk through the place was furnished and all she was obsessing on was where she would put her furniture, new window treatments and where her blue porcelain duck collection would go.

Tomorrow when she does the escrow closing walk though and she isn't so distracted she'll notice the swollen MDF, the yellow tint and That Stank..


and before she moves in next week some off the shelf garbage poly from Home depot will go in, and HOPFULLY the subfloor is Kilz'd and MDF replaced.

My job was just to make it look better.

CRB with renovators till I could take the caprture and LMC dust anymore. gag...I need a dust mask.

Filled the trays 8 times and could have 8 more.

Chemspec Kill Odor Plus and a but of Oxy lightly applied via the IPS

RV360iBH at 300

HEAVY Flex ICE rinse...

Wanded the edges and dry stoked again

Changed out the Dev Filter over and over.



LOOKED killer.


Called both agents tonight to make damn sure they understood how bad it was.


If any of you advertise that you're Pet Odor Specialist, you need to have your head examined.

 

[SamIam]

So you no like stinky le pue

 

[Papa John]

I don't understand your choice for the title...

You didn't do less or cut any corners. You did almost everything that should be done- And you 'Killed' it.. so you should feel great!?

Hope the pad was changed-I'm impressed the subfloor was Kilz'd.

I wish I was That Privileged-- ( where's the tongue sticking out emoji?)

 

[Nate The Great]

I see it advertised all the time, flea and tick treatment, pet odor treatment, all mixed in the pre spray..... Umm yes, I'm a lot more expensive that the 69.99 3 rooms and hall guy...

 

[GeeeAus]

I'm the guy with the hot buckets of O2 and the water claw.

 

[hogjowl]

I'm the guy with a hydraforce full of Pet Stain Off.

 

[Papa John]

I'm the Guy who advises replacement in severe cases-- and they listen to me.

 

[steve_64]

You didn't charge enough lol.

No vacuum? What the hack!

I'm starting to question the pre treatment with pet stain off. I think it needs to be a post treatment only, and let the acid or oxy do the pretreatment. Getting callbacks isn't my style and I got two of them when I pretreated with pet stain off

Pet stain off

Make sure no other chemistry being used when applying... Shut off Chem injection

Turn heat down (160 sweet spot)

Apply heavy in bad areas... Want to leave enzyme behind

Let dwell 30 minutes at least

Than extract... And you could add other cleaning chemistry at this time but oxy or peroxide will kill the enzyme so only mist the tips of a remaining stain off concern.

If really bad and haven't told clients this is the best fix for now and want to go deeper.. Yes... Do an acid clean first... Maybe even some osr type water clawing... Than do the pet stain off and clean and again make sure leave behind in the carpet.

But... We find just using the first steps as I mentioned will do especially if you pre warn the clients that Fifi did a pretty good number on this and if you want just like new... Going to have to dig deeper in the pockets.... For new carpet and pad.

And if the pets in the home yet... They are going to continue to keep using the rug as their potty.

I don't use Pet Stain Off for urine stains. I use it for odor. I use 40 vol for the stains.

 

[steve_64]

I've had a couple rentals I went in and soaked everything with osr the day before to make I got the stink out before cleaning.

Now I'd follow up with odorcide 210 freshsent as a rinse.

 

[Lee Stockwell]

I'm sure there is a spot where you can pull back the carpet to expose the ugly stanky truth beneath.

You have 4 to one HF?

It was all poly so the yellow pretty much all came out

But any attempt to deal with the pad would have been a disaster.

If I did what I did in had it been in SCruz, it would have taken 24 to 36 hours to dry.
Yesterday we 30 to 70 mile winds and what with our ultra low humidity, it was probably dry in 4 hours.

 

[hogjowl]

Yeah 4:1. I take the yellow tip out first thing so Jr. doesnt have to think about it. He uses a Multi-sprayer to prespray all detergents (unless it's a large commercial) and I use the IPS, so if he sometimes forgets to half his detergent mix when prespraying with the HF it's no big deal.

Although I do remind him on a frequent basis.

 

[Mikey P]

gotcha, are you using a IPS?

I did yesterday, it sure does not like foamy peroxide...


but I sure love the function of it. Just need an all titanium option for sons and chimps.

I surely hope you vacuumed first as what everybody here preaches. Or maybe you have common sense not to because of the stank you would be sucking into your vac and having the blowby fill the room with bacteria and viruses.

People who vac over pet areas are just plain STUPID.

 

[hogjowl]

I like it ok. So far no hic-ups. It's a little flimsy so I'm not buying one for Jr.

 

[hogjowl]

People wo DONT encorporate all the cleaning steps in all circumstances are stupid.

Including you.

The crb is nice because it digs up so much and washes off the machine easily. And it doesn't blow anything into the air.

I also understand that when you don't charge enough the customers want you to do it even when you know you can only do so much.

And it's faster to let your filters catch the debris outside than to vac it all up or using the trays on the crb. Just lots of extra dry passes which helps with the drying too, win win.

Proud of you Mike![/QUOTE]

No way would I use my vacuum on that mess, and their vacuum was wasted. Lots of wet spots too..

 

[hogjowl]

If it's wet, that's a whole nuther thing.

 

[Mikey P]

Who here runs thier vacuum over pp carpet?

 

[hogjowl]
