Roger, we followed your instructions for restorative cleaning.
We got a very good result.
It is still darker in the highest wear area. Can this be corrected further?
The darker area may need repeat; it is “under-clean” perhaps not soak deep enough to bring out these foreign particulates!
It should come out good to your satisfaction after the repeat.
Some shiny spots still appear (possibly sugar, form beverage drips, most are very small 1/4" or less) is there a way to dissolve these spots?
Try the d’Oil4.4™ direct onto these spots, agitate and let dwell minimum 30 minutes, agitate and extract follows by clean3.8™ to remove sticky residue and rinse3.0™.
Leave it dry naturally a minimum of 4 to 8 hours, erase wicked-up soil particulates.
There would be a tremendous improvement I believe.
Otherwise just apply d’Tannin3.5™.
If it fails to move the stains try d’Tarnish1.3™.
Very unlikely they are protein stain try d’Protein11.0™ (we never know, it’s best to ask the owner!)
