Default Carpet Cleaner

Hey guys, I was wondering if you all had any experience in getting some stains out of the carpets? Would it be alright to use Resolve or some cleaner of that nature even though it is for household carpets?

I used Blue Coral upholdstery cleaner on a 1990 ZR-1 last year that I detailed and tuned for a local doctor. The interior is saddle and I could not believe how well this stuff works. Carpet and upholdstery.

If you go over to the car care discussion forum and do a search you will find "Folex" mentioned many times.

Can be bought at Lowes or Home Depot. Cleaning supplies. It has worked well for me.

Good luck.

Laundry Spray 'n Wash (the stuff you use for shirts, etc)!! Works great, doesn't discolour the carpet and then smells "fresh"...spray on small area or whole surface, then spray to saturate the rugs with very warm/hot water with another bottle, scrub circular motion, use wet/dry vacuum to remove first amount of water, then do a rinse with another spray and vacuum! let dry, you're good to go!
