Treating both classes the same way is the most common soot-cleanup mistake.
Using the wrong tool on either class tends to make the residue worse.
Local Essington dispatch keeps that window from closing before we arrive.
A standard shop vacuum does the opposite of what's needed here.

Wetting a soot-loaded carpet before vacuuming just sets the stain.
A completely different chemistry than what porous drywall responds to.
