Bonnet Cleaning commonly refers to using a 175rpm Floor machine with a cotton pad or brush. The Cotton Bonnet that is often used with these is actually where Bonnet Cleaning gets it’s name. There have been a couple of large national franchise of carpet cleaners that based their system on Bonnet cleaning with a 175 rpm machine.
Cimex Floor Machine
The Cimex is a distinctive twist on the rotating head cleaner. It has three small heads which counter rotate to the direction of the main disk. It looks like a regular floor buffer but the action on the carpet is not the same. This unit is very popular in commercial carpet.
Ocsillating Pad (OP)
The Ocsillating Pad machines look nearly the same as the 175 rpm floor machine but has a entirely different action. The base of the unit vibrates and rapidly rotates in little small circles and rotates in a large circle also. OP machines do a very good job of scrubbing the individual fibers. It works very well on some types of carpeting like Sculpted Berbers and Berbers.
How Can Wick Backs be Fixed?
Wick backs are an issue with most carpets and rugs, especially with carpets that are not mounted over a pad. Especially with steam cleaning you can clean a carpet and the spot will seem to be gone. As the carpet dries the stain may reappear. This is caused by the wetness in the carpet is wicking up the fiber and bringing the dirt from the carpet backing back up the carpet fiber and onto the top of the carpet. Bonnet Cleaning, Encapsulating, and OP methods rarely have wicking challenges.
Pet Issues with Carpet and Rugs
In most cases with smaller Pet Urine problems you can saturate the problem area with close to the same amount of Urine cleaner, let soak for twenty to thirty minutes and then extract. If an area has been severely abused by a pet repeatedly the pad and sub floor probably will be contaminated. To solve this commonly you need to pull up the rug, replace the carpet pad, paint over the sub floor with a special sealer. Often it will be best to to replace the carpet.
Encapsulated Cleaning There are new cleaning solutions available that are referred to as Encapsulating. How these these chemicals work is they break the dirt’s bond with the carpeting and dry to a flake. This flake will separate from the carpet with normal vacuuming. These chemical compounds were developed for the Vlm carpet cleaners but normally function nicely utilizing Steam Cleaning also.
Why you should Vacuum More Often.
Carpeting is a good air filter . Dust and dirt will normally be caught in the fibers of carpet. Regular vacuuming will eliminate a lot of this dirt. Some of this dust will filter through the carpeting to the carpet backing and not come back up. Have you ever noticed that you do not get the dust-bunnies on a carpeted floor but you will see them after only a day or two with you have hard surface floors.

20% of Dirt is Sticky
Several reports have shown that around 20% of the dirt in most carpets is sticky and will affix to the actual fiber making it look dirty. The other 80% is dry and will easily come up by vacuuming as long as it has not been trampled in to the carpet. When the dry dirt has dropped to the bottom of the carpet you will not be able to get it out of the carpeting. You cannot get adequate air flow to get dirt from the base of the carpeting back up through the top layer. What carpet cleaners are trying to clean is the 20% of the sticky dirt that sticks to the fibers and makes the carpet look dirty.
