Ok I read through the whole thread and let me make sure I understand the process. Spray mats and interior with 303 for heavy spot/stains. Use a mix of APC and Hi temp protein mix to as a cleaning solution brush interior, then extract with the LGM.

Am I using the LGM to spray hot water at any time or just to extract?

This is the part throwing me off please explain?

Thanks great write up for a good carpet cleaning without dropping some serious coin!:xyxthumbs

Has anyone found a Woolite/Water mix that is safe for using with the LGCM? I have read that it is supposed to foam like a mofo upon extraction, but with such good cleaning ability I would like to know if there is a dilution that is safe to use. I just used the Bissell solution that came with my little green, and it worked wonders on the carpets in my house, and worked on the car upholstery too.

I use Zep Commercial extractor shampoo in my LGCM. You can get it at Home Depot, its wicked cheap comparitively, and I really like the smell. Its a quality shampoo, too.

So, is this still the "go to method" that most people use for thoroughly cleaning interiors?

A quick way to clean fabric seats and carpets , if you can stand the smell in ammonia and water, 1 cup of ammonia to 1 gallon of water. Dunk in a terry towel , ring out, wipe fabric , then wipe with a dry towel, done. You will be amazed on how clean your interior will be. When ammonia dries it pulls out all the oders. You need no extracter, only a couple of towels and the solution. Ive used it many times, and for a weekend detailer it workes great , but a pro.useing it all the time , the ammonia would get to him. Use clear ammonia as it doesent leave any residue in the fabric.
