Fabric revitalizing method using low absorbency pads

A method of revitalizing a fabric, the method comprising:

• directing a flow of air through a chamber while tumbling the fabric to dehydrate the fabric to a moisture level of about 0%-10% fluid by weight of the fabric;
• removing particulates from the air flowing through the chamber after the dehydrating step by at least intermittently contacting the fabric with a low absorbency textured surface;
• directing a treatment fluid into the chamber and onto the fabric;
• rehydrating the fabric to a moisture level of about 10%-20% fluid by weight of the fabric to refinish the fabric;
• and
• dehydrating the fabric to a moisture level of about 2%-5% fluid by weight of the fabric when the moisture level is greater than 5% fluid by weight after the rehydrating.

• directing a treatment fluid into the chamber and onto the fabric;
• rehydrating the fabric to a moisture level of about 5%-10% fluid by weight of the fabric to light clean the fabric;
• and
• dehydrating the fabric to a moisture level of about 2%-5% fluid by weight of the fabric when the moisture level is greater than 5% fluid by weight after the rehydrating.
