Hey Damon, it sticks to the carpet fibers like crap to a blanket.
It needs to be broken up with a
CRB or even a pile lifter.
I believe the "Brush Pro" is a
CRB, not sure.
THEN I would also vacuum with a decent vac;
Only then, wet it up and extract.
PS:: On a side note, I was asked to inspect and clean carpets in a guv-urn-mint office in an Aboriginal community some years back.
Their "normal" carpet cleaner, was unable to fix the problem after three attempts.
When I got there, I was shown the problem, carpet was matted with a hard whitish
compound.
I got down and scratched it, then asked the person in charge if they used a powdered carpet deodorizer at all.
"Oh yes, all the time, it makes the place smell nice".
I took my Vacuum in and the first question asked was... "What's that"?
"A vacuum cleaner"
"Oh, the other cleaner never had one of those".
This was a brand new Dyson.
All I had to do was vacuum and the brush was able to break up the powder and "Capture" it.
I was lucky.
