Can anyone suggest the best carpet cleaner ( aside from a steam cleaner...) for a light-tan-old carpet? The stains are from the previous owners; but, also, are over active puppies bladder... Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreicated... Thanks...
Consumer Reports says that for small stains Resolve carpet cleaner is the best
We have a rug doctor that we use at home and with rentals and with extremely hot water and a good carpet cleaner the stains do come out. The trick is to saturate the padding below as well as the carpet and extract it so the stain comes all the way out. Vinegar rinse helps the smell go away and does clean as well. (white vinegar) As well as a good pet stain cleaner you can purchase We have 7 year old carpets and they always come clean if you keep them that way. Rug Doctors can be rented as well as bought. If not some of the over the counter types just do not deep clean steam is the best . Good Luck :)
Blue Coral works well---I get it at Auto-Zone...If the staining is widespread---there is really no way around a professional steam-cleaning though.
Potassium permanganate. It will turn everything purple, but it will oxidize the hell out of anything in or on the carpet. Those stains will be gone! But your carpet will be purple.
