Claims2
A method of restoring depressions in an installed foam padding backing adjacent to an installed carpet, said method comprising introducing plastic liquid foam between the installed carpet and the padding in the area of the depression, wherein said foam expands to fill the area between the carpet and the depression in the foam padding thereby providing a level foam padding backing and said foam bonds to the foam padding thereby holding itself in place.
A method of restoring depressions in an installed foam padding backing adjacent to an installed carpet, said method comprising the steps of:
- establishing the size of said depression requiring repair;
- making an incision in the installed carpet in the area to be repaired;
- admixing two components of a two-component foam in a syringe device and injecting said mixed components between the carpet and the padding in the area of the depression;
- and
- restraining the foam resulting from said admixture by placing a weight over the center of said depression, wherein said restrained foam expands to fill the area between the carpet and the depression in the foam padding thereby providing a level foam padding backing and said foam bonds to the foam padding thereby holding itself in place.
