Has anybody used there cc to try cleaning horse rugs. We have horses and its really hard to clean their rugs as you cant get them in the washing machine as they are so big. any thoughts on this could be a great market for this if it could work ;D

What brilliant idea I'd never of thought of cleaning horse rugs, and me living right in the middle of Berkshire downs race horse country another string to my bow. Thanks for that tip Sherco.

find a local launderette they will have a big large load dry clean machine this will do the trick plus, i know a carpet cleaner that uses his TM to sanitise stables. these ladies will spend their last penny on their horses, I know my wife choose one over me. -)

I live in the middle of horse racing country as well and thought of this a few years ago, even mentioned it to a supplier on here as I thought his products would compliment the service. The stables around here use a local 'specialist' who picks up the rugs and cleans them for a price that made it unviable for me.
It was a few years ago now and I think it was £5 a rug.

If it would have paid more I would have gone for it, and would have stopped moaning about being woken up by the jockies every morning at 5.30  >:(
