Just browsing the site after viewing Mikes  excellent video,and Steve Barnett (Carpet Care Plus) is very good.
Has anyone else viewed or produced one to the high standard of theirs.

If you really want it go to your nearest Large Sunday market, I'm sure I've seen it demonstrated in the last 2 or 3 years at Blackbush near Camberley.
I had considered getting into a professional arguement with the seller but thought what's the point, the mugs buying it will soon enough call us when they find it doesn't work quite like it was demonstrated. ;D

Neil.

I have actually had a disscusion with one of these demo traders as they are known.

I asked him allowed if it was a polyprop carpet he was cleaning, Hiis reply was " yes only the best carpet is beeen used " ;D I said I doubt it would have that effect on a wool carpet, where the soiling has been in for a while, his reaction was basicly what the F**k do you know ::)

All of this infront of a number of gullable people, didnt want to get into an argument so left quietly :)

what is it that the woman with the brummy accent puts on the carpet to make them look dirty that cleans off so easy - making the bissell look a wonderful machine.
Its a con and annoys me.
Do you know what it could be?

I've seen the damage the steam cleaner does to a carpet.... A new custy got me in to rectify his mistake and I was met with loads of severe browning stains from the jute. I shook my head in disbelief and his wife was saying how tight he was and wouldn't get me in at first.... They were millionaires too ???

I told him that all those steaming machines were good for was opening other people's mail :D

Yeah, i think its mainly Coka Cola. But its just freshly thrown on, then she quickly sucks it up with the bissel.

I've also seen her make up a big mixture on the carpet with things like raw eggs, wiped cream, cola, orange juice etc etc but again this is just sucked up soon after she lays it on. And the carpets are polyprops.

Its all a con really. But i can see why a viewer (with no carpet cleaning knowledge) could be taken in by it all.
