I am moving into a foreclosure. The carpet is badly stained in some areas. I can't afford to replace all of the carpet. Do you know how to effectively remove stains from carpet? Resolve doesn't work.
I asked for and won a carpet shampooer for Christmas, whether it broke jointly as utilizing it the fist time, so as much as i might prefer to propose procuring one...i'm sorry to declare my adventure hasn't been all the large! LOL! in case you might have adequate money it, decide for clean carpeting or have it professionally wiped sparkling and re-stretched. in the adventure that your married and your husband is prepared, you additionally can lease a carpet stretcher and do this area of it your self. this is not puzzling to do, whether this is puzzling on your knees. you will additionally want a carpet knife to trim the surplus carpet, different than that, you ought to be sturdy to bypass! sturdy success!
The two best products I have found are Greased Lightning and Shout. Try scrubbing the stain with a brush and one of these products, and then rent a carpet cleaner and go over the entire house, concentrating on those stains. Hopefully they'll come up for you!
The issue is and always has been, less about the carpet and more about the padding. Certainly Hundreds of products are sold claiming to reduce or remove stains, and given that most carpet fibers are synthetics, they all may have some moderate success. It may also depend in large measure, on what caused the stain in the first place, and I promise you any WET attempts, no matter Who the PRO Cleaner is, who does the job,,, will leach to the padding. The same can be said for those machines so many rent from the grocery store. The problem will show soon enough, in that the stain, or some of it will appear to be gone from the carpet, but at least some of it will end up in the pad. Then as the carpet fibers will dry first the Moisture in the pad, along with the stain, will leach back up, into the carpet. Many PROS also use a Bonnet technique; similar to dry cleaning clothing. The machine (looking like a floor buffer) is fitted with an absorbent pad. Some chemical substance sprayed from an ordinary spray bottle is applied as the BONNET is then rotated over the stained area, gathering whatever amount is possible, into the Bonnet pad, while keeping a moisture level low so as to NOT allow seeping into the pad. In reality, if you want to keep this forecloser or even FLIP it you should probably pull the carpet, and at the very least replace the pad. You'll notice years of abuse that may not show on the carpet surface. Also to do the WET approach, even Stanley Steamer the likelyhood is that any leached substance/stain will add aromas to the house, when wet, that you might not enjoy, IE: Pet Urine. Steven Wolf
