BEST SPOT REMOVER FOR CARPETS?

Tinkrbl44 — Sat, 09 May 2020 18:33:33 GMT

Need some recommendations .... EVERY spot remover on the store shelves says it's the very best at removing spots.

I've got a couple of mystery stains that have been there for a while (I think) and am wondering if anyone here ever used something that actually worked.

Suggestions? TIA

Resolve is my favorite. dirt stains, pet stains, food stains, you name it, it'll work. If not the first time, the second time.

I agree with @itsmagic that Spot Shot is the best.

I have mine done professionally. I had "old" spots that didn't come up with Resolve, stain cleaners brands.

My carpet guy gave me a spray bottle of 3/4 hydrogen peroxide mixed with 1/4 water. If my kitty has hairb all accident I immediately blot with solution. I've also used it on mystery spots..after blotting cover with foil and put something to weigh down. 9 out of 10 times stains gone.

If too bad, I get out my bissell pet cleaner and use solution. This is a god send!

l used Resolve for years but I use Furry Freshness, now. You can buy it online. It's fabulous! Removes even old pet stains. vomit, diarrhea, urine odor as well. It's a little expensive $ 28.00 for 32 oz.

I have two that are my "go to" stain removers.

Campenellis spray foam in the yellow can w/blue lid---works great on "mystery stains" and just about anything that comes in on the bottom of a shoe. You just spray and let it be. It will vacumm up the next time.

Foley's carpet cleaner. (White bottle w/ purple lettering....sold at BBB) This works great on blood or stains on uphostery. Just spray it on and rub in a circulat motion with a white cloth. I swear by microfiber but that's my preference.

Hope this helps you.

We have found Folex works best and it's so quick and easy.

When you use Spot Shot the spot dissolves before you are done spraying. Used it yesterday for some coffee spots on my area rug....POOF Gone!!

Just another hint. Before I tackle any stain on clothes or carpets with product, I wet a microfiber cloth with cold water, squeeze it out and wrap it around my pointer finger to blot up first and then use a clean portion of the cloth to vigorously push into the stain to draw out what is left there. I am amazed that often this is all I need. I doubt it would work on old stains but I am amazed at stains like spaghetti sauce that come up completely from clothing and carpeting. I think part of the trick is using just one finger so as not to rub and spread the mess and the little fibers on the cloth grab onto the stain better.
