Cotton Hook Rugs?

[esquireservicesinc]

Does anyone here ever have a problem with a cotton type hook rug browning? Any suggestions to avoid it. We normally do a light extraction, with prespray, acid rinse and put an airmover on it right away to dry it quickly. A lot of times we have to hit it again with Steamways Formula D straight to correct it. Any body have any suggestions other than a dry foam?

I usually wet clean them without any issues

What are you prespraying with and how about your rinse?

we wash them
Spend some quality time with slow long dry passes front and back with an extractor
or Dry it and treat it with a browning product like RX for browning ( not too strong or you'll damage the color)
or dry it and Shampoo with an upholstery shampoo

I actually use Chemspec Advanced Generation Traffic Lane Cleaner (which hasn't been made in years) with a rinse of Prochem All Fiber Rinse with Chemspec One Clean as Detergent in the TM.

If browning is the only issue let it dry face down.
