Protein residue tends to yellow surfaces over time if untreated — we address it before that staining sets.
This residue type spreads fast across smooth surfaces, so we prioritize hard surfaces first.
Wet smoke residue often needs a two-pass cleaning approach: a solvent pass followed by a dry-sponge pass.
Dry-chemical sponges lift this residue type without smearing it further into porous surfaces.
Smoke residue circulated through ductwork gets cleaned separately from surface work.
Upholstery and curtains get ozone or thermal treatment rather than surface wiping, which just moves residue around.
