Re: Carpet cleaning

what i do is go to wal*mart and in the auto department where all the cleaners there is an auto carpet and upholstery cleaner that is in a red can with a brush on top...follow the directions and that should get a good amount of the stains out...then i go to where ever you can rent a carpet and upholstery shampooer with the upholstery attachment and clean it like that...it all works out really good
hope this helps

If not, have it professionally cleaned.

I have a TR5 Steamer and Mytee Heated Extractor and have not found anything the pair can not remove.

Remember, to clean carpet, you will need heat, friction, chemical and dwell time for the best results.

Re: Carpet cleaning

Cool

That is the main thing...,

Finding something you like,
Something that fits your budget,
Something you like to use,
Something that gets the results you are looking for
