My son spilled carpet shampoo directly on carpet. Wont stop sudsing. Anyone know how to get it out?

Question

We have been rinsing carpet over and over again and it just keeps sudsing.

Answer 1

pour on straight white vinager may need upto a gallon if a lot of shampoo was spilled let sit then suck up and use plain water repeat once if needed.

Answer 2

Fill your carpet shampooer with plain water. Use it over the area, same as if you were shampooing. Don't soak the water onto the carpet! Light, even coats. Vacuum with the shampooer each time you go over the area with plain water to pull the water back up. Keep doing this until the water comes back up clear.

If you don't have a carpet shampooer... you need a wet/dry shop vac! You'll have to vacuum up as much as you can get out of the carpet. Spray clean water onto the area, rub it in a little and vacuum up. Repeat until water starts coming up clean (well, as clean as it can get).

Don't use your regular vacuum cleaner... please! Go to WalMart, if you have to! Only a wet/dry shop vacuum will survive!

Answer 3

set up a wire tie up between two poles and hang the carpet on the wire and spray or if you are strong enough soak the carpet and let it suck the water and hang until the water drips and dry

Answer 4

They have a product that will stop the suds, they use it in Jacuzzi's so I'm sure it will work on carpet

Answer 5

u can go to a pool/spa place and get a anti-foaming liquid......we use it in our outside spa, i would think it would stop the foaming and allow u to take r carpet cleaning machine and suck up the remaining liquid......

Answer 6

The product you can use is called defoamer. Lots of janitorial companies use it.
