Default In need of a good carpet cleaner.

I bought a car that looks like the owner spilled a gallon of chew/spit on the carpet Its NASTY!!!! Ive tried:

*Tuff Stuff
*Blue Magic carpet cleaner
*Armor All Oxi Magic


It got most of it out, but still enough there that if I cant get it out, I will buy a new carpet.

Is there something else I can try or take the carpet to have cleaned? I pulled the carpet out to clean the whole thing.
Thanks....

Resolve Spot Magic Carpet Cleaner?

I use that shit all over my house, the stuff is bomb. Its like $6 a can... %99 of the time you dont even have to scrub, but it sounds like your stain could use a little elbow grease...

If you have the cash, go to Target and get one of those Bissel Little Green carpet cleaners. I bought one a couple weeks ago and it's simply badassed. Once you use heated cleaning solution and a powered scrubber, you'll wonder why you ever used foam and a brush.

yep, those from publix are about $40 a day if i remember right, and they're very easy to rent out

if not try spot shot, and if that doesn't work i can give you the number to our carpet cleaning guy

I have used liquid carpet cleaner sold by the people who rent you the carpet cleaner machines........and a scrub brush....then suck it out with a shop vac and rinse it............. and suck it out with my shop vac again.

If you rent the machines and remove the carpets, that might even work better.-Bob

I got the same problem. When I bought my car it was nasty. It looked like the person before droped a Chocolate milkshake in the car and then said "well Ill just rub it in eveywhere to match."
Im still trying to get everything out. But Does anyone know whats a good way to clean the roof of the inside of my car. It looks like this.


I don't want to ruin it anymore then it is. Ive tried things on other cars and it screwed it up.

I had Stanley Steamer out to do my house, and for a tip, you can get 'em to do your car too.
