Dave: I would agree with you in your desire to try to find some use for the old tired out pads. However, to continue in using the old pads even in rough “turrain” seems to me would become a bit time consuming, and TIME spent becomes $ lost elsewhere. My labs are currently enjoying them as a bedding but I am open to suggestions on the matter.

Your words of encouragement are always welcomed! 😀

Hope you have moments to be enjoying your summer!

Had a similar situation just recently. After investigating and asking questions the customer explained that she had let her children play with a new art paint that is out. Its little chips of dry colored paint. Its probably been out for years. The chips if allowed to stay in the carpet will with a little bit of humidity cling to the fibers of the carpet. Vacuuming will not dislodge the chips. (I tried). Once these chips recieve any form of moisture they take about 10 minutes to fully desolve. (I tested various colored chips) The color gets obsorbed by the fibers of the carpet causeing all the damage. Service Master cleaning products couldn’t even begin to break down the colored spots. I know this as they were kicked out of the project and I was called in to rescue the home. Whatever spot Service Master touched instantly set the paint into the carpet. Anything they didn’t touch I was able to extract with normal cleaning solutions. Needless to say there were 100’s of chips in this carpet. Ended up only cleaning a couple of traffic areas as and trying to fix the mess caused by SMaster. Hope this helps
