    Re: What do you use for carpet shampoo???

    I myself use the DP extractor treatment.

    Spray it on the carpets, let it dwell with maybe a quick brushing depending on condition, then clean it up with the extractor.

    Always works a treat!

    I have had excellent results with Follex and Meguiars APC and the Bissel Little Green Machine. Depending on the stain either of those two products will get the job done. Nylon Spotter works too for some really tough stains.

    I use Ammonia and water 5 to 1 mixture. It cleans , doesent leave any resudue , once the ammonia oder is gone all other oders go with it , leaves fabric soft , you do not need a extractor or wet vac.You simply dunk a towel in the solution wring out and simply wipe the fabric or carpet , follow with a dry towel. Ive done some nasty interiors this way.

    I`ve never been a fan of using APC on carpets. I like using Vac-Away products. Different products for different stains. If you look on their site, you can find a link for a free sample pack - just pay shipping of about 8 bucks. You get a LOT of products. The samples last a while using on car interiors too.

    Folex is a great product for stain removal, but if you clean a part of your carpet and try to remove the Folex by running water over it, it never seems to rinse off.

    If you are using a carpet extractor, Detailer`s Pro Series Carpet Extractor Pre-Treatment is an amazing product that rinses away with no residue.
