A well-attended and informative class by CTI Pro's Choice was held at the Bane-Clene® Training Center on October 11, 2019!
The CTI Pro's Choice instructor, Brian Bond, taught the class, including a Power Point presentation and hands-on demonstrations of the Pro's Choice carpet spot and stain removers and also the pet odor control products.
