How do I know, it's touch dry, within an hour, or so................because it takes me, on average an hour and a half to clean a suite, so I'm still there.
Also, I always clean suites, before moving on to the carpets and it's unusual, not to have carpets to clean at the same time.
As I said, I've been in this industry for more than 10 minutes, have attended many courses, presentations and demonstrations, always trying new products and learning all the time.
As in every walk of life, theory is fine, but the reality is, we are all different, as machinery and products are different, it's getting the maximum performance out of them , that makes the difference.
I've seen incredible results from someone using a little Puzzi 200, leaving upholstery drier than my Ninja and clean.
The only time I would have felt the need for assisted drying, would have been nearly 20 years ago, when due to, inexperience, inferior machinery and poor products, I left suites much wetter than today.
Finally..............
It takes me an average of 90 minutes to clean a suite at around £55 and I simply don't subscribe to the 3 hour clean and leave a blower to dry, regime.
It's not going to enhance your credibility or reputation being in someones house for a minute longer than absolutely necessary.
When you have tradesmen in your home, you want them finished and out ASAP obviously having completed to a high standard.
