Sponges get replaced frequently during a job since a soot-saturated sponge starts redepositing particulate.
Fine soot particulate pulled from carpets, upholstery, and HVAC returns using HEPA-filtered equipment.
Tile, glass, and metal get a different chemical treatment than porous drywall and wood.
We prioritize metal fixtures early in the job since the corrosion clock starts immediately.
Overhead surfaces often carry the heaviest particulate load and need careful sponge technique to avoid streaking.
