That ranks up there with my grandson texting his mom at 5am this morning saying he's #cooked! Felt awful hadn't slept, and had a chemistry test. She told him to take advil and go to sleep. He's at OU mind you. He takes his test and makes an 80😂 Had a Calculus test and aced it. Made his day!!! Mine too for that matter 🤷🏼‍♂️

Cooked, chopped, Sybau, 67, 41, skibbidi, sendy.. 🤣

I'll order some tomorrow. thanks

I called mr vonSchrader spray-and-scrub today to see when I could come do another rinse, and he said it was fine after it dried and he was happy with how it turned out. So I didn't need to go back

That helped my day. :)

Did the check clear?!

Peroxide is such a blessing for VLM work

It's only they made hot water extraction rinses that had a suitable amount of peroxide in it as it would be even more effective due to the extended drawing/exposure times
Some encaps with peroxide ( Hydrox ) say they can be used as a Hot Water Extraction Detergent

Personally, Rick might disagree, but I wouldn't make a habit of running that through my porty. Even 2oz per. At least run a low pressure hydra force

Buying an ATP meter to measure the bacteria count before and after cleaning made me move away from hot water extraction. Why? Bacteria live in our carpets and eat our flaked off dead skin. They build their colony’s in places where there is more food. When you blast a carpet with Hot water, you blow the bacteria present into the backing where the multiply in the presence of ample food (our dead skin) and moisture. The bacteria population grows rapidly in the presence both food and water…

The threshold for a clean environment is 200 cfu ( Colony forming units) of bacteria. Anything higher is unclean. I used to clean the carpet areas in a big Mall down in Daly City. The swabs taken before cleaning on the toys in the play area averaged 700 cfu. Seriously dirty. A woman complained that her boy got sick every time he went to the play area in the mall. I usually tested 4 different areas. After cleaning with a low moisture nano partical cleaner, the highest reading I could get on my atp meter was was 91 cfu, 200 Cfu being the thredjold for clean. Rent or borrow an ATP meter… it will tell you how present the enemy is that you can’t see…
Great point an funny too!
