Bonnet cleaning requires a machine that has a pad which rotates on the carpet to be able to absorb the soil.  Foam cleaning uses a detergent to whip into a foam which when extracted, the dirt comes off. Dry cleaning makes use of a dry compound scattered all over the carpet and then vacuumed after an hour.
