Hey guys,
Please check out my affiliate store - mountainstore360.com
I have listed lots of helpful cleaning items including everything I use in the videos. I get a small commission for anything purchased, at no extra cost to you, Which helps me to make these videos. Thankyou
I just wanna say I was having a depressive episode and this has successfully distracted me. Thank you 😌😌
😂😂😂😂
This was not a rug cleaning, it was an exorcism. The fact that you didn't stop on the first rinse to convert that black water to ink or try to sell it for a horror movie speaks to incredible strength of character.
I like that exorcism!
I was shocked it itself wasn't a really dirty black rug... 🤯
💀
Might be a strange question, but why? Why have a rug in a Coal room?
🤣🤣🤣
Who else agrees that the metal squeegee is always the most satisfying thing to watch?
Ooh I don't know. When the camera is really low and he uses the metal squeegy to push muddy water at the camera....... Sometimes it makes my stomach turn 😂. I love the rest of it though, especially the transformation.
The brushing for me but that’s more satisfying for me to hear than watch lol

I like R2- Clean2 myself. I think it's relaxing to watch videos of cleaning rugs.
I don't know how I fell down this rug cleaning rabbit hole, but I'm glad I did. That was amazing!
Exactly my thoughts for myself 😂
me too! hahah x
And me! 😂😂😂
This channel and Post10 who unclogs drains and culverts …..😵💫
Yeah I like watching these videos and car detailing videos to.
I love watching the rug cleanings, for you don't know what hidden treasure is underneath😊
Dirt Reynolds is always my favorite part. The way it made the character of the rug come out immediately surprised me
Squeegee my fav
I did not expect it to be a colorful rug at all, it was completely black and seeing it suddenly become a colorful rug with designs shocked me. I thought it was gonna be a single color rug, that was like gray or something. A kind of rug you'd be okay with getting dirty. But why would they do this to that poor rug? 🥺
Because the dirt was not set in like other rugs he's done. Probably just dirtied earlier that day.
His name is Dirt Reynolds. His eyes google. He weeps, for he cannot scream.
Dirt Reynolds is my favorite part as well.
I like to play “guess what colors are under there”, and I am shocked every time at how vibrant they shine after.
Same here - and I am also shocked how early on in the cleaning they showed up this time.
Same
I do the same and I’m also most wrong, WOWZA
I am agreement with this statement
That was VERY surprising
I keep seeing the question, “What’s a coal room?” and “Why would anyone keep a rug in such a filthy room!?” If you’re looking for an actual answer, here it is!
TL;DR: Coal rooms were used to store coal for the household fuel needs. Yes, there are still homes that have coal powered furnaces in use and still have active coal rooms. Coal rooms are lined with old rugs to contain the coal dust created when coal is delivered; because a coal dust explosion would be… bad. 💥😱
Full explanation:
Back in the day (we’re talking 1700s, 1800s, even 1900s here), Coal was King when it came to household fuel options. It was more cost efficient than wood and safer than gas; or that new fangled electricity later on. So coal was used as fuel for everything: kitchen stove & oven, heaters & fireplaces in bedrooms and parlors, it was used to power furnaces for steam radiators, and (if you were 1800s extra) your home’s hot water system. Based on the size of the household and the climate, people could go through a literal ton of coal in a year.
Now coal is messy and leaves black dust EVERYWHERE. So people usually stored their coal in the basement; it kept the mess away from the living area and the coal conveniently near the furnace. Naturally, having the coal man walking through the house, covered in coal dust, to deliver coal to the basement would create a mess. So coal rooms and coal chutes were created.
A coal room would be built against the outside wall of the basement and a chute with a hatch at or above street level would be created. This way the coal man could drive up to the hatch, open it and shovel the coal delivery down the chute and directly into the basement coal room; without ever having to come inside and track coal dust everywhere!
However, the coal chute caused its own problems; that pesky coal dust again! The coal falling down the chute and onto the basement floor could pulverize itself and create a lot of coal dust. Since most coal rooms were NOT airtight, you could end up with a haze of coal dust in your basement. And if you’ve seen any TH-cam videos of grain dust, powdered sugar, or powdered creamer explosions… not a good thing at all. So how did people fix this? Rugs. Rag rugs, old canvas, the rug that was destroyed when Betsy spilled an entire glass of red wine on it, all were used to line coal rooms to reduce and contain the coal dust created; and reduce the chance of a coal dust explosion.
The rug in this video was probably used to line the floor of an active coal room (yes, people still have coal powered furnaces and use coal rooms to this day!) and absorbed the dust from years of coal deliveries. Back in the day, when a coal room rug needed to be disposed, it would just be thrown in the furnace as fuel. However with modern rugs (acrylics plastics, etc.) that’s not the safest option. So instead of burning it, Mountain Rug Cleaning got some business and we got a satisfying cleaning video.
So, yeah. That’s what a coal room is and why there are rugs in them. 😊
I knew it had to be coal! It was too black to be regular dirt or soil! Thanks for explaining.
@@suwaidajalal There was a clue in the video title, to be fair.
@@MacMcCaskill For some reason, the complete video title is only appearing here on my notifications. I re read the video title when I found this OP but it wasn't there. Or maybe I was too thick to notice. Who knows.
Yeah I think that’s just what they want you to think. How has this rug accumulated years worth of dust and yet still look like it’s never been walked on? It’s not worn at all it literally looks brand new. It also looks fairly expensive.
@@chooktin78 How weirdly suspicious of you. If you watch back any of his other videos you'll see the miracles he can do with rugs to make them look like new. I have a rug that I'm using for mulch at the moment, I'm thinking over whether I can get it to James to clean. If I do, I'll take a video of it in situ (it currently has grass growing on it and a tree growing out of it) to prove that it's a genuinely dirty rug.
Oh my goodness as soon as you started cleaning I immediately recognized that rug. My daughter has it in her room right now. Got it from ikea about 15 years ago. You will be happy to know we have taken very good care of ours and it still looks beautiful.
is it as fun to roll around on as it looks, I may be a teen but I still love rolling around on fluffy rugs like this one looks.
Where did you buy it?! Looks too nice for IKEA but maybe?!
I thought these were expensive Persian rugs. They are from IKEA? Hardly worth all that trouble of cleaning!
@@carolynkenyon2122 gallons of water for this ikea rug 😂
@@Kelvin_Ess you know all water gets recycled right
Pure carbon/coal is actually very cleansing. It came off so easy for a reason, and probably kept the rug sanitary and clean, by binding to and absorbing filth and moisture. It a very powerful binding agent.
When agitated, it is also a cleaning agent, and aided in scrubbing the rug clean.
Interesting
Doesn't surprise me. Some facial soaps have small traces of coal in them to scrub callouses off when you wash.
Coal is used to filter water. Its a crazy binding agent
Technically what the carbon does is adsorb dirt to it. To adsorb means to bind to. To absorb means to incorporate within.
I was convinced at the beginning that this rug was going to be a solid color. Then Mr. Reynolds starts up and I shout... Holy Hell! It's an owl! Lol How you got that water clear is magic. Because that was the blackest muck I've ever seen in my time as a rug addict. This was beyond enjoyable to watch. I bow down to you sir. Your skill is unmatched.
Thankyou as always Christina. Im glad you enjoyed it.
Aww, Spoilers☹️ I shouldn't have read the comments, lol
@@osageetopmoss4464 Oh no! Sorry love. 😄💜
@@MountainRugCleaning love it ❤
That rug did NOT come in like that. It would cost more to clean it than it would cost to just replace it. They added black dirt for views.
Sensational result. This has to be the most satisfying rug clean there's ever been. Who would have thought that all those colours were underneath? And who puts a rug in a coal hole in the first place? And, oh, a lovely bonus---TWO goes with the scratchy brush!
Probably trying to keep the dust down and based on the starting color it worked a treat
Me: I wonder what the scratchy brush is.
20 minutes later
Me: OOOOOOOOOO
Obviously nobody have a rug in a coal hole and they did in fact make it only for the video
Somebody that fakes his videos, obviously. Good asmr tho.
@@Hitzor TF dude?
What I want to know is WHO in their right mind puts a gorgeous rug like this in a coal room?!?! That's like putting a Persian rug in a mechanics shop.
Now I want to see a mechanic shop rug cleaning ^^
@@far_sea Me, too. LMAO 🙂
it's a cheap IKEA rug from 2013
@@maryandchild That is funny! Still gorgeous, though.
ngl i feel like some of these carpet cleaning videos have carpets that were made dirty on porpose for videos
(im not generalizing or aiming at anyone)
1:29 I was shaken to my core, this rug has such a beautiful design and vibrant colors. Love how that all came out pretty much immediately
Completely agree!
Right? I had no idea it was that pretty underneath all that grime
Shaken to your core? Calm down. It's a rug.
Uh, am I seeing a different rug than y'all? Colors are vibrant but the design is bland
@@jordanbutterfield3720 Bruh if the rug was just white with no other colors or images, ppl would say that shit lol
Loved the transition, but makes me wonder: who on earth puts such a beautiful rug in the coal room?
Who's still using coal? 🤷♂️
@@n9wox many people
@@prototype9000 In what country?
@@n9wox usa
Is that what that is?
I'd love to see how you drain/empty the little trough that catches all the dirty water and clean the space you use for cleaning the rugs. Obviously watching the carpet cleaning is the best part, but it'd be interesting to see how you maintain your work space too! :) Thanks for all of your awesome videos! Always so satisfying! :)
Reckon if he dried it out, he’d get enough coal to heat a room for a day!
He does that all the way through the video, didn't you watch or you just another bot?
@Simon Lyons he doesn't show draining the trough, it's right full at the end.
Sump pump I reckon
He has a sump pump in the corner that you sometimes can see in his videos sitting in the trough. I've heard it running in the background, but only in a couple videos. I could be mistaken as to it being the noise of the pump, but I don't think so. Check out the stinky multicolored rug video with the bright blue, yellow, pink, and other colors. That's one of the videos I believe I saw that pump in. You'll see it in one of the corners of the trough. I believe you'll find it in the lower left of the screen. You can hear the pump draining around 24:36.
Reminds me of my grandpa's rock hounding days. Ugliest rocks I've ever seen, dug up, washed, sliced, and polished to a mirror shine. Absolutely unexpected captivating landscape scenes, sky scenes, even images of animals or people, all appearing from beneath his diligence. Incredible. And mesmerizing!
Can we see!?
There are videos of rock tumbling here on TH-cam as well… just as satisfying to watch 😛
That sounds really cool!
I gotta say, my cat, Bodger, was absolutely mesmerized by this video. As was I!
He could not get close enough nor appear more contented. I had to fight him for the screen!
Truth!
Outstanding work. I shall recommend you to all my friends...
Amazing how vibrant the colors looked almost immediately...interestingly, coal is antibacterial in nature and can actually make colors stand out more once cleaned...geology studies...gotta love it
It's a $39 ikea rug. If it's covered in "coal" it's because the guy cleaning made it that way. Nobody is paying a professional to do all that work to clean a rug that costs less than the cost of getting it cleaned.
@@diedsunday 😐👍
@@diedsunday they don't pay him. These are rugs that would have been thrown away anyway. He cleans them and then donates them.
@@RedSuramow yeah, and his subs probably send him a couple too
Coal is one of the easier things to get out of carpets and rugs, at least it wasn't mud or the dark stains from boots xD..
The editing, camera angles, slow motion and parts with extra emphasis on certain sounds make your channel one of the best for this type of asmr!
When I watch a dirty rug being cleaned I often comment that it could have come from a coal mine. Well surprise, surprise it’s this one. You have come a long way from when you started out, this video has over 2 million views. You deserve a big pat on the back for coming so far. Well done you.
I think he made it more dirty for video
Would love to know a starting weight and finish weight to see how much dirt was removed
I was also wondering!!
I always find it insane how you can see the rug reveal even from the first rinse. I look forward to the surprise of what pattern lies underneath! And just when you think it’s clean bam 3 more litres of dirt ooze out 😂 the blackness of this one and the way the water looks when you squeegee it out reminds me of the film venom and how it moves and attaches to things
I think an explanation and appraisal of the rugs age, origin, value etc. would be cool. Love the videos
It's IKEA, only a couple years old, $20. Source: i had one sitting in my kids play room for a few years.
@@joshwestbrook2157all that for a $20 carpet? Cool video though.
@@McTaco I like it better than the landfill.
@@joshwestbrook2157 where do you live that rugs that size are $20? I have seen 2x4 doormats go for 40+ where I live! :)
Dude is clearly just buying these carpets and then getting them filthy and cleaning them for millions of views. He's a genius.
What a quirky design, but so satisfying to see it come back to life. Your work is strenuous and meditative at the same time. I can't stop watching! And I love the way you named your machines.
It’s always such a treat. It’s like what’s the color/design of this rug?! Then he cleans it and it’s always so cool!!
That's got to be the sweetest rug ever! Wow what a transformation. It was so great to see an owl appear out of all that dirt. Loved the bubbly drain noise too. Didn't make it to the end [never do!] 1st time round but more than willing to watch this one a few times over. Great job!
Thanks for watching. Hope you make it to the end.
the rug is from ikea, you could possibly still get it yourself 😁
Solid proof that what the wash doesn’t get, the rinsing will!👍🏾
@@sankarirotta Thanks for that!
I also really liked the rug!The owls are so adorable!!!
As a bird lover, id like to say that those beautiful birds have never EVER looked happier than they did when you started cleaning. Thank you for freeing those lil' babies
You are so kind
I hate to break it to you, but those are not real birds
@@DerAltruist Well ya, technically all birds are robots, but I think they were referring to the image of the birds on the rug.
@@DerAltruist wow! who knew. i could’ve never guessed!
@@chrissymissing Well, you are not the only one, so don't worry
SO grateful to see such a thorough clean… You could have easily stopped when the carpet was red and the water was grey, but you went above and beyond as usual! Another awesome carpet cleaning, well done!
NGL I cried a bit. The level of dirt on this rug gave me hope for salvaging my grandparents' rug from the den. My Papaw recently passed, so a lot of emotions are still on the surface. Thank you for giving me hope ❤
Well you certainly outdid yourself this time, James. I would never have guessed at the finished product based on the roll-out. Good job!
Thankyou. Just glad you enjoyed it
peope are so easily fooled it is staged
@@rhsweden Damn he cleaned that carpet so good you thought it was staged.
@@rhsweden what do you even mean by this? You literally watch him clean it step by step.
The absolute plot twist that was the reveal of not only the bright colors, but also the really cute design hidden underneath all of that dirt and dust. You really managed to bring bakc the vibrance, I am once again in awe of your rug cleaning magic.
Thankyou so much for your kind words
At some point, my impatient ass would stop and say “good enough“. But I like the fact that you keep going until it truly is clean and the water is clear. The cycle of cleaning that goes into this is impressive! And so satisfying to watch.
Cute rug of owls trapped in onions, very relatable.
This rug was as black as my soul 🤣 Thank you for the extra scrapes!!! This one definitely needed it lol. You're truly an artist! Amazing transformation! 👏
Haha im sure your not that soulless lol
Have you thought about getting a perforared platform to put rugs on when cleaning? So that the debris and liquid can pass through without pooling underneath the rug?
That's what he needs like a cooling rack.
Yeah these are commonly used for rug cleaning, helps a lot
he's said before that the shampoo and chemicals would drip and disappear before it properly gets rid of the dirt and whatever.
Like a drafting table at a steep angle.
@@ayathedoggo perforated platform may be used at 2nd or 3rd stage
That rug design is weird, but colorful. I spent the whole video trying to figure out what it might be (aside from the owls), and thinking how odd it is of a choice to make for a design for anything, while enjoying all the cleaning of it.
I feel like they’re figs? I’m not sure but that seems about right
Ikea Gulort Rug
@@FriendlyFare IKEA rug eh?, that explains everything...😁
The birds are kiwis if that helps
@@reneepatrowicz7810 I thought the birds were owls too at first then I figured the fruit and birds were both kiwis
The skill and the ease with which you do this is remarkable. I watched a previous rug cleaning and this one has been just as educational and entertaining as the previous one.
I was excited when I saw a pattern creeping through during the first rinse. I love a pattern reveal 😄
I love how bright it got with the Oxy Boost and of course my fav, R2 Clean 2!! The color of red velvet cake (when made correctly). Splendid job, as always!!
Yay! Thank you!
I love r2 clean 2 but my favorite part is the squeegee
I think that was the blackest water I've seen out of all these videos! Amazing job 👏 once again ❤
How long does it actually take to do this? Just curious. Seems like it's at least 4 hours of work. I find these videos extremely relaxing and satisfying.
Amazing work! I'm curious to know if you've tried to use something under the rug that has a lot of holes in it to aid in allowing the dirt to screen through while scrubbing so the dirt isn't trapped under the rug?
I've seen him use holed mats in other videos on small rugs or rugs that have an unusual shape.
@@rodneyjason3409 oh ok, thx for informing me
I thought that too; but I think the issue would be the difference in the resistance and non resistance between the rubber and the holes..... And it would also cause strain between all the rubber and all the holes..... I think especially with the pressure washer.
I've got a brain injury but remember looking down at a similar project and thinking well shit, that didn't work the way I wanted it too.
The other guy said he sometimes does use a device like that for small rugs and unusual shaped rugs; I wonder if its needed to hold the rug in place or something..... The hole/not hole would be different though and how would you move it to successfully get all the parts in the other parts space.... Maybe just rings and rings and some are filled and some are not so he just slides the whole thing one hole row over..... Idk. I'm subscribed so if I watch a video where he does use a thing like that I'll come back (if I remember) and tell you the episode where it's used.
@@personalinformation9963 th-cam.com/video/_mQiuXSuCCU/w-d-xo.html
(PS: it was extremely nice to hear the little teeny tiny bubbles on the water that was draining away to the trough!)
You are by far the best rug cleaner on TH-cam. I’ve seen many and none compare to your in depth dedication. Keep the videos coming!
I 1000% agree. The sound quality, manual brushing, and absolutely filthy rugs turned brand new! The best on TH-cam!!
I totally went "Oooh!" when the first owl peaked through lol
So satisfying!
I’ve watched numerous videos of his. I’m beginning to think it’s all set up. I’m 51 years old, I’ve never seen rugs as dirty as he always has in the videos. Don’t hate on me, I enjoy his videos and he does an amazing job bringing them back to life.
Love watching you clean the carpets. You take so much care and pride in your work.
I love what i do so that help i think
I discovered this channel by chance. The work you do is really interesting and so skilled! It must be very rewarding.
On a different note, I get very anxious about things in general and I discovered that watching one of your videos really relaxes me. I find the cleaning process very calming. Who'd ever have thought it possible! 😲 Thank you!
I find the same. I can watch these all day and it calms me down. Same for pressure washing. Might be something psychological as if I see myself dirty and unwanted, yet hope to be clean up and show my true value. If even only to myself.
If you like to clean, please come to my home. NEVER this kinda dirt but cluttered and disorganized!.
@@patriciastrassner4883 so is mine!☺️ I like to watch people clean, hate to do it myself! 😅
I am currently in the hospital recovering from a minor surgery. Can highly recommend these videos. Super relaxing and calming.
Boo!
I'm honestly stunned that is the same rug you started with. How satisfying to see the patterns and vibrant colors reveal themselves as you went through the cleaning process.
I can't believe that was under all that dirt. AMAZING
First thing, I was absolutely shocked to see the pattern. Then I thought, "If the coal tar did that to their rug what did it do to their lungs? 😳"
More like coal dust, but same valid point.
Death, basically.
The Cia is on ur ass. Lol
Had the same thought.
Coal dust, not coal tar.
It's called Black Lung.....many coal miners, including my grfather, died from it
I have been enjoying your work for a time now, but I have to say this is the first rug I wanted to bring home after.... those owls, those figs, those colours.... perfection
Thankyou for watching. This rug did come out really well.
That rug has got to be from the 60s
@@ChrisHopkinsBass Someone in tje comments said it's a rug from Ikea, whatever that is.
This is a very affordable area rug from Ikea. I almost bought one myself a few years back.
@@FitzgeraldStanburyWeissV Ikea is a furniture company based in Switzerland that makes cheaper furniture that you build yourself with easy-to-follow instructions. I love Ikea!!
It's unreal the effort it takes to really get all of the dirt out of something like this.
And the absurd amount of water
@@yeagerj7747 good thing it's recycled in the uk
WOW!!! This one was truly amazing!! You did an awesome job!!! Thank you!!!
You have no idea how excited I was when I read the title and you didn’t disappoint! And the power washing was amazing to watch! Love it!
Just a thought for such a dirty rug.
When blasting the rug with the jet wash the hard floor will stop a lot of the dirt from moving and getting caught on the back. Maybe put a hard bristle fake grass underneath to make a gap to allow the dirt to flow away.
Then you gotta clean that too.
@@aaronwatkins8973 Not really because is plastic and has open spikes unlike a rug which is absorbent.
Great idea
Main issue is the pressure wash exerts alot of pressure which makes damaging the rug on a non solid surface much easier. If you want a hard bristle floor you need it to be effectively hard as the solid floor which is really impractical
WOW look at those colors in that rug it always amazing how beautiful these rugs come out so clean
I had no idea these rug cleaning videos could be so relaxing and satisfying, I love them.
When you first rinsed it, the rug looked like it came out of the Supernatural universe and was possessed by a demon 😂
I really love how you can't see anything in the beginning only to witness a beautiful transformation. Awesome job!
Haha sounds intense 😅
awww i love this rug!!! I never thought this would be what was under all that yuck- the kids (6 & 8) love Dirt Reynolds and R2-Clean 2- and our favorite bit is when you do the squeegee - they chant, like "squeegee, squeegee, squeegee," Lol
I was so stunned when these cute owls appeared beneath all the years of dirt. I hope they've found a lovely new home! I want this rug so badly 🎉
These are so remarkable to watch!
This is content I never knew I needed
This is the best overhead camera angle you had just far. You should keep this one. It's nice to see the actual drain of the tub & where you're pushing the water to.
This one was very satisfying to watch. That you were able to clean it so beautifully is definitely a nod to your skills in cleaning rugs. Thank you for sharing this with us.
When I was a kid in the 1950s, our apartment was heated by individual coal fireplaces in some rooms. There was a coal room in the hallway and when the delivery man came, we spread newspapers on the floor and he would come in the front door with a coal bag over his shoulder to dump in the coal room. Looking back on it now, I hate to think what his lungs must have been like spending his days carrying bags of coal. It always took a while to clean up the hallway after he left.
I might not be able to listen to these due to sensory issues, but I get so much satisfaction seeing a perfectly good item that many people would simply throw away being totally refreshed. I love these. 👏👏👏
This is an Ikea rug! The model is called Gulort! Great transformation, James!!!!
Thankyou for the information
I can understand why they put this carpet in the coal room; but now that it's sparkly clean, someone will love it!
The cleaning process is just wow. The video quality and all the work you must doing editing this is also wow. You are the “wow” man.
Nice one James, I've finally cleaned a dirty rug on camera, 100% chunky platted wool rug, Cleaned it and revealed loads of pee stains so ive hit it with some HP and put it out in the sun to reduce the yellowing, Can't beat using the sun as a peroxide accelerator lol. Video coming soon. Great job on this rug buddy. 👍👍👌👌❤❤
Great mate. Amazing how the sun can brighten up the rugs. Look forward to seeing it.
This is the first time I’ve watched one of these. I have to say I did think it was a solid black rug at first, it’s amazing how you’ve got it so clean and vibrant. Like it’s brand new all over again
The transformation of this rug from BLACK due to the multiple layers of black coal dust and soot from the coal into the RED WITH DIFFERENT COLOR DESIGNS is absolutely AMAZING!!!!!! I never thought it would look like that by the end!!!! You can’t even tell it was in a coal room!!
That rug is absolutely breathtaking! Must. Find. This. Rug
I’ve seen other commenters say it came from IKEA.
Watching this, wondering if you had a grid system of sorts, small openings, something to raise them off the floor, to allow the dirt and grime to fall through and drain, rather than stay under the rug with each pass?
Could cut down on cleaning time by quite a bit.
I thought that too, they need to be elevated a bit
I was going comment why not hang the rugs so the filthy water can drain away instead of soaking back into the rug.
Maybe if there is no backing, the high pressure would damage the weave of the rug, maybe even rip it...
Well, that would either only cut down on how much remaining grime is left by a small amount due to the fact that grimy water has increased surface tension and wouldn’t flow into the grates, leaving behind a still grimy bottom
or it would damage the rug due to machine washing it on an uneven/unsturdy/unleveled surface
I love the rugs you find for us. So rewarding to see all that black mud go away.
Best transformation!! I was in complete shock!
This is so relaxing to watch!! Cathartic!! I love this!!
James, my initial thought on seeing you roll out this one was 'this one has surely got you' but you proved me wrong again. You persevered and won, I'm so big time impressed. Thank you.
Holy cow the color pop with this job. I'm always amazed that you can get the colors to come back so nicely. Great work
Thank you! Cheers!
That's insane man!! I could binge these all night!
Absolutely stunning result! But rugs aren't cheap (whenever they're made). I can't comprehend letting a rug get this filthy. Yet, the end result was incredible. This is my first video here watching rug cleaning. I've seen similar cleaner wash driveways & paving, but never rugs. I'm amazed. Obviously "R2-D2" at the end was different, and using the hard brush on it. What a miraculous result. Good on you for the patience... and the willingness to tske it on. I'm no fan of the pattern on the rig, but I hope they treasure it now, even just because of the history & transformation. Good job. Well done!
Some people were saying its a cheap ikea rug
Hi, would it help when spraying the rug with the high presure to put the rug on an wire mesh to lift it up and lose most of the dirt before using the soap?
the pressure wash combined with a wire mesh do not fare well, the force exerted by the pressure wash would probably damage the mesh and/or the rug
I had this exact rug in my second grade classroom… Brought back terrible memories but was still satisfying to watch
I can't believe this was on my time line.. and watched the whole thing.. learn something new about yourself all the time I guess.. great video
Hands down my favourite Rug Cleaning video! Well done!!! No way would I have thought the rug was coloured and patterned! Also, your video edits have improved so much! Loving the slow motion moves and the close ups with sound and the collection end, you see so clearly how dirty the water is!
Oh thank you! Yes i am always trying to improve my editing. I'm glad you're liking it because it takes me hours !
@@MountainRugCleaning I am sure it does! Thank you for all the effort you put into these uploads, I enjoy them a great deal! I wish there was a place near me that cleaned rugs like you do! Cheers :)
I just noticed, there was no annotations of descriptions of each step of the cleaning this time. I love the descriptions you add!
oh my gosh it looks so fantastic!! 😍 and the squeegee and the pressure washing are really my favorites 🥰🫶
Love it when the first glimps of the real beauty shows.....
You're not a rug cleaner, you're a wizard who make miracles .
WOW! You changed the order of operations in this episode. The outcome was superb! The colors revealed were bright, and enriched hues that were not at all apparent in the introductory rollout. The motif is somewhat abstract, and beguiling. I have an affinity for geometric symmetry with rugs, etc. Nevertheless, this was a wonderful way to begin the weekend. Thank you so much for posting! I hope you went to the pub after for a pint to unwind from this brutal laboring task. The owner will be overwhelmed by the presentation of this clean, and restored throw. Well done! Cheers!
Thankyou very much. I did not have a pint but will be having a few this weekend. Thankyou
This is truly A miracle❤. You have done phenomenal job
I love how Happy And at peace this video makes me feel.
Dirt Reynolds and R2 clean2 to the rescue. Great job James. Final job is amazing
They did good didnt they. Thankyou
Utterly incredible. When you rolled it out, I was like--"This one? How?" But I'm seeing more than ever how. The bristles of the rotating brush roll, not that they could do anything--it's the motor and the electrical supply. And the SHAMPOO!! What the heck is in that shampoo that causes such thick black whatever to respond to it? And, of course, the water helps. The soil just can't resist the science. It will NOT stay adhered to the fibers of the rug pile. Lol! Amazing process, amazing results.
Thankyou 👍
I have recently discovered this channel. I’m fascinated by this. You guys are amazing!
Welcome aboard!
Don't know how I missed this one. Such a cute rug. Wonderful as always James.
There’s something really satisfying watch you clean that rug good and proper
That's a cool looking rug. Someone is going to want that. I know you will make it cleaner than a new rug.
it is a $50 rug you can get from ebay not sure what is cheaper a new one or the cleaning it...
What an odd, charming little rug. So glad it was rescued. Nice job!!
Truly amazing effort! Most people would have given up! That was some black water! Loved how the colors popped right out!
