    Will Release it DS work for restaurant carpet?

    I am cleaning a restaurant that I clean every three months on Friday and I am considering encapping it to see how it comes out. I have always HWE'd this account but I wanna put Release it to the test on this job to see how it works with carpet that's more challenging than office carpet. Do you think it would work or should I just keep Release it for offices and other CGD that isn't as dirty?

    Re: Will Release it DS work for restaurant carpet?

    Where it has been getting cleaned every 3 months and if you're using a cimex, you might stand a chance. But if I were you, I'd be prepared to go back and HWE if I didn't get the results I was hoping for.

    I did recently clean the common areas of one of my nasty apartment buildings with Encap Punch using a CRB scrubber and a 175. Got decent results.

    Pre Spray with encap Punch. Then Cimex with Releasit DS at 8 oz. To the Gallon. I have had great results this way for a wing joint.

    Oh I also used the grey Fibermax pads. Cut cleaning time in half.

    Oh one other thing I additionally thought of. It would also be usefull to Use a 175 or an OP machine if you have it with a cotton pad at the main entrances from the kitchen, servers stations, and front doors. to get an extra amount of extraction. Those are usually the filthiest areas.

    Oh and use there sink water because they usually have flaming hot water and that will help the encap be even more effective and cut the grease even better.

    Could just use an OP machine with glad pads for the whole thing. Scrub the dog out of it once then go back to the filthy spots.

    Re: Will Release it DS work for restaurant carpet?

    Regardless of how much I praised encap the manager didn't let me do it. He nicely told me to do it using HWE, I was looking forward to doing this job using encap to see how it would perform. Maybe next time.

    Re: Will Release it DS work for restaurant carpet?

    You just let somebody who knows next to nothing about carpet cleaning tell you how to do your job?
    I bet he also tells his dentist what drill to use

    We encap restaurants all the time. Releasit DS @ 4 oz per gal.

    I have not had good success using encap only for grease pits. I'd love to know your process and soil level.

    Regarding the manager: I assume when a customer writes the check, he might have the right to decide what type of cleaning he wants. After all, he can call the guys who WILL do it the way HE wants.

    Although he may seem like one who knows 'nothing about carpet cleaning' he also answers to his boss.

    Re: Will Release it DS work for restaurant carpet?

    My dad used to tell me it is always easier to ask for forgiveness then permission. So I would not have asked I would have gone to work and let the results speak for themselves.

    You give him the best looking carpets in the area and his boss won't say anything and he won't say anything just pass your card to the rest of the managers.

    Re: Will Release it DS work for restaurant carpet?

    I understand what you're saying. I have never had a client tell me how to do my job so I really never thought about it.
    On the same token I have never told an expert how to do his job either. I got my van repaired today and did not tell the mechanic what tools to use but I assume he used the right ones because my AC is nice and cold again

    Re: Will Release it DS work for restaurant carpet?

    I am in business ONLY to make a profit and my clients make that possible. They can always choose my competition. Hence, when they tell me NOT to do something or TO do something else that is inside my abilities, I do so. That includes using the method (that I offer) that pleases them.

    On the other hand, I want to educate my clients on the current choices, I also make suggestions but always let them choose. Always.

    That gets me off the hook.

    I make more money doing this.
