I am in hopes that someone can fully describe the options for bonnet cleaning with a portable. I currently own a small portable and would like to begin the bonnet scrub method before using this under powered machine.
I have read many posts here about this method and variables. I have read about pads verses brushes.
I shampoo mostly RV's and one or two rooms in a house. I bought a Rotovac set-up last year and frankly I like it a lot but my inline heater is a waste for that much water. I stopped using the rotovac as of late and began just using a floor wand. It does take more work and the results are not the same(at least to me) However, the dry times are way faster and the trips for adding and dumping water are fewer.
I thought I wanted to get the rotovac set-up and begin my new life! I had no idea how much set-up is involved and now that the results are not the same...well I got discouraged. after reading a few posts about the bonnet method followed by extraction, I got the bug again.
So, someone please list the steps and equipment needed for me please.
I currently pre-spray...dwell....use a hand held brush on spots...extract (my water has a brown out rinse aid I add). I would like to rinse again with just plain water but I am already way behind the curve time wise with my extensive set-up. I am already the most expensive carpet guy around! I do not mind doing extra work and charging more so long as my results ROCK!
I am a firm believer in image and customer service! Right now, I have no right to be as expensive as I need to be! I feel I will if I ad the bonnet method.
