many ways no right or wrong way, what ever works for you,
my way:
prespray,
take hose off hand tool to just spray solution soak the step or 2 or 3, you can then brush if needed, put hose back on hand tool, suck up, noses spray plenty on suck off with end of hose.

so same as mark said, except i soak with just solution, imedeatley before extraction, just rinses it better,  i would imagen not nessacary with TM or more psi than i got.

does that make sense?

Charge customer per step, ie £1.00, £1.25 and think of it in term of money, four steps down £4.00, £5.00. o0r what ever you charge.

And clean like other posts suggest

Buy a decent stair tool with a rotating head and they are easy.  I used to hate them too!
