You know it's dried to a bone and dyed the carpet😂 You'd have to chop it with an axe just to get it started😂

I would rather be a Padder than a SOAKER



VLM crystallizes and leaves NO sticky dirt attracting residue

Residential dries in 1-2 Hours Commercial dries in 30 - 60 minutes

And HUGE PROFITS



What happens to all the prespray detergent dirty water and dirt left behind by SOAKERS



CRICKETS !!! CRICKETS !!! CRICKETS !!!

That just tells me (when you had a machine that looked like a good truckmount) that you didn’t HWE carpet properly
I bet you
-did your wet passes in the triangle pattern
-had a 2 jet wand that was 2-3 flow
-rinsed at maybe 350psi
-didn’t do slow dry passes.
-never changed your blower belts because it was “too hard” to get access
-had your lift set around 11-12

Which made your mind calculate that HWE was terrible method. I understand. That’s why there’s mental facilities for those who were just taught the wrong way. It’s called a class and they teach you the proper way to HWE carpet.

GROUP THINK Members still ignore '' The QUESTION ''

What happens to all that's left behind using HWE


You have a TM and Van sitting outside, blasting away, burning fuel, loaded with equipment that cost you probably $30,000 - $50,000 dollars

With that kind of money the carpet should be dry the minute you drag a wand across it

But NO it still takes 2-5 hours to dry ( if your lucky )

And leaves behind prespray detergent dirty water and dirt


I tell all my customers HWE is how carpets were cleaned in the 90's

VLM with NO residue and 1-2 Hour Residential Dry times is how carpet is cleaned today


I love VLM !!!

Most of the chemical manufacturers claim their product, when used properly, dries to a powder. Maybe not a hard polymer crystal but a powder anyway. I've tested quite a few products and found that many do. Especially products like Procyon or Carpet Details. You see it building up on your hydro-force or on your quick connects. When you brush it, it's just like dust. I have no problem with carpets re-soiling because of sticky residues. Most of my work is repeat customers. One of my friends has gone 100% VLM and he finds it very slow and tedious. He often wishes he had his truck mount back on certain jobs. VLM certainly has its appeal, especially with the low cost of equipment but truck mounts have the ability to perform quickly and efficiently.
