What do you us eto take a rust stain off a carpet

**zgoalscorer** · 02-12-2011, 11:23 PM

Carpet is tan and it looks great except for a half moon rust stain. The stain was from a metal weight that had been sitting there in that spot of the carpet for a while and it left a brown rust stain. I cleaned the carpet with a prespray of biokleen apc and then extracted it with biokleen carpet and upholstery shampoo. the stain was still there. I tried folex and that didnt help. I also tried biokleen bac out just for the sake of it but no good I can get it out. Any suggestions?

I wouldn`t typically suggest this, but... maybe try some full strength Simple Green on it?
