How can I get rid of the juice stains on my carpet?

Question

I tried to hire a carpet cleaning company, but they told me they can't get rid of juice stains. Then I was told by someone that they can get rid of juice stains. But I don't know who to believe? I don't want to waste money on a service if they can't get rid of them. I was thinking about just buying a small piece of carpet similiar to the color and texture of my carpet and cutting out the juice stains and replacing them with the small piece of carpet. Let me know what idea is the best or if you have any suggestions please feel free to share. Any information will be very well apprieciated. Thank you.

I worked as head of maintenance in an Alzheimer's facility. I searched for a cure to this problem for 3 years. We tried professional companies. We had our own, very good, carpet cleaning equipment. A hot water cleaner/extraction machine. I tried Windex, Oxy clean, every brand of commercial carpet cleaner on the market as well as laundry soaps, dish soaps, hand cleaners, oven cleaners, Orange cleaners, etc... I tried everything I found on the internet. I can't think of a single product that I did not try. I used sample pieces of carpet because many of the things I tried would have ruined the actual carpeting. This is what I found.

It was impossible to remove the stains without removing some of the carpet color itself. This is what I did to solve our problem.

I used Oxy clean on the stains. It has a bleaching effect and removed the stains along with some of the carpet color. Our carpet was a medium blue color. I then purchased Rit fabric dye. After creating a formula of mixed dye colors, I added dye to the carpet cleaning machine and began to go over the faded areas. It required about 10 applications to achieve the depth of color that matched the original color. I intentionally used a weak solution. It was a bit of work but, since the carpet was a few years old, it was our only alternative. New pieces of the carpet were darker because the original carpets had faded.

Good luck. Everyone is going to have a suggestion for you. don't get your hopes up over any of them.

my children spilled grape juice on our carpet. I used resolve carpet cleaning solution on it what I did was I mixed some of the resolve in a container with some warm water and I used a sponge and dabbed it on the carpet and let it sit for 10 minutes then I scrubbed in a circle motion with the sponge and the stain was gone.

Instead of calling the service people, you can just go and buy a Steam Carpet Cleaner from Walmart, Menards, Home Depot or any store like that.
This saves money and you can use it anytime you want to.
I use a Hoover Steam Cleaner all the times its great and cheap in price!!

Don't know if this will work for you or not, but I have had a carpet cleaning guy tell me that Windex, GlassPlus, etc. work on all kinds of different stains. I have used it on pet stains and it worked on those.
