More FAQs- Isn't urethane more expensive than a traditional acrylic finish?
- Are there instructions to follow after my carpets are cleaned?
- When will I be able to use my furniture after a professional cleaning?
Yes and no. The cost of product per square foot for the application of urethane finish is more than an acrylic finish. However, customers will see a return on the initial investment in urethane because of the reduced need for ongoing regular maintenance. As a facility manager, this will also result in fewer disruptions within your premises.
Immediately after cleaning, it’s best to allow carpets to dry for 6-8 hours before walking on them. Walking on them may flatten the fibers. Use air movers if needed to help air circulation as this will speed up the drying time. If a carpet protector such as ScotchgardTM was applied, foot traffic should be minimized for up to 24 hours to let the product cure. Don’t move any furniture back in place until carpet is completely dry or the Scotchgard carpet protector has cured.
Depending on the cleaning method we use, drying time differs. The average drying time is anywhere from 1 to 6 hours.
