Think About It
When you would offer reprotection with water based products, you increased drying time dramatically. In most cases your customer will not call you back. To get around this issue many cleaners apply the water based product however not doing so as to the recommended dilution rates. This causes a loss in revenue for you.
Ask Yourself This Question
As an example: How do women apply hairspray? To wet hair? Or dry hair?
Our view is to semi-dry the carpets and then apply a mineral spirit based product as it will dry faster. The reason being is that we now can dry the protector onto the carpet fiber. This process will give your customer an honest value for their money.
