The winner this month is Keith Kohaut of Steam A Way Inc. in Fort Wayne, IN. Keith will receive a chemical prize package worth $500.

Keith describes this particular job: “These photographs are from a nasty rental I handle. Of course, I first thoroughly pre-vacuumed the carpet. I used a quality pre-spray with an oxygen booster that I gave plenty of dwell time and agitated with an orbital machine. I then cranked up the heat on my truckmount and flushed with an encapsulation acid rinse. The landlord was amazed and was very happy he didn't have to replace the carpet.”

For an opportunity to win a $500 chemical prize package from Solutions by Steam Pros, send your images and a brief 100-word description on how you obtained your results to Jeff Cross, senior editor at jcross@ntpmedia.com, or 193 Purple Finch Loop, Pataskala, OH 43062.
