This is going to sound crazy, but Shaklee laundry detergent they call it "basic H2". Add a little bit to a bowl of water and wipe it with a fairly wet sponge, then blot it dry with a towel. I don't know what's in that stuff, but it's amazing on carpets. I use it in the house and in the car, ironically, not the laundry. It takes out everything!
Shaklee is one of those thing that you have to buy from a person like Avon.

most over the shelf carpet cleaners are actually designed to make carpets more dirty. they usually have ingredients such as petroliums and other agents that attract dirt. they do this so you will keep buying this stuff.

if you notice, even if you get the stain out, within a few months, the same stain is back all of a sudden! this is because of what they put in the stain remover, not anything you did wrong.

best thing to do is to find an orange-based remover that contains natural ingredients rather than chemicals. these can be found in certain cleaning supply shops and are sold in bigger quantities like gallons or more. ask the pros at the store, they will point you in right direction if you explain the problem. good luck!

regrettably, the longer any crimson liquid maintains to be on carpet fibers, the possibilities of having the stain out grow to be much less possibly because of the fact the fibers are "dyed" with the aid of the colour from the liquid (Olefin is the exception). For destiny stains, today upon prevalence, blot up as most of the liquid as plausible--place a towel over the spot and step up and down on the towel, rotating the towel as liquid is absorbed. Then use Woolite Oxy Deep 2X--those products is large. Get some for the subsequent time. you should attempt it on the gatorade stain, yet attempt it first on an not substantial section (like in a closet) to work out if it is going to take the colour out of your carpet alongside with the stain (specific, biege will exchange colour). My ex grow to be a carpet cleansing expert, and any cleanser will inform you that there is not something which will take out a stain that has set devoid of possibility of adjusting the colour of the carpet the place the stain is.

Go to Walmart and buy a bottle of cleaner by the name of "Crud Cutter" . It is a spray bottle and has worked on most stains in carpets.

really soak it with "resolve" let it soak on there for an hour, then clean it up with lots of water, the water is what takes the dirt away, dissolving the dirt and lifting it with the water. If that doesnt work try oxi-clean or powdered "tide" detergent, it may work.

I got greasy oil out of our carpet this way, looks great now. Good luck...

Take the car in to a carpet cleaners shop. They will steam clean the carpet and then you can have it Scotch-guarded to help prevent further stains.

I have a relative in the business up in NJ and when I go up there, he'll do my truck for me.

Probably a good auto detail shop will be able to do it. They clean cars inside and out--and it depends on what the stain is. It could be permanent.

if you know someone that has a small steam cleaner that's actually the best way to get it clean,most detail shops use these now,and they actually work pretty well if one of those wont get it clean its not going to come clean,good luck with it.
