ABSTRACT

Before I get in too much trouble, let me state (for the record) that I see the value of precleaning. If you can cut through the clutter up front, you can more easily focus on the real dirt. at it is not to say that my techniques do not work. If there is a stain on the carpet, you can simply move the clutter and clean it. You can do that because you know it is there. Conversely, if you do not know where the stains are, they never get cleaned until the clutter is out of the way. Further, if you have ever dealt with boys, you know that they are very good at hiding stains.
