Anyone have any experience with these? I'm looking at them to clean my floor mats and some spots on my carpet. I also need a decent carpet cleaner to go with them. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I haven't used any for the PC, but I have used ones for the rotary.
Many folks use them for the PC with great results. Don't think I have read anything negative come to think of it.

As far as a cleaner, I currently use a product from Rubbermaid. Carpet and extractor fluid. I pick up a gallon local at Wal-Mart for 9 bucks. Works good for an OTC product....
I'm sure others will chime in.

The carpet brush (I use the white one) on the PC is an absolute must for dirty carpets. It just makes short work of a tough job. I use Woolite 8:1 and Folex on spots and stains.
I recently toyed with the thought of selling my PC to buy a Flex and then remembered the carpet brush so no way on getting rid of the PC.

PC brushes work great, you can even use them by hand (no PC) for hard to reach areas... I have a few but have only really needed the white brush.

As for cleaners I use Zep Carpet Cleaner (Home Depot) make sure you get the one that says it's for extractors... I add a touch of woolite in the mix as well.

I also carry folex with me at all times but reserve it for tough stains... least invasive method is always my motto.


Zep or the likes can be diltued to different ratios for different jobs.

I have 3 bottles at different ratios at all times, like I said with a little woolite in each one. If the strongest of those will not work I then reach for folex.... which is also more expensive

I put two on the Cyclo and go to town. No dirt is safe!

i tend to use the softer ones (aqua and light grey).
the grey ones are perfect for leather. i use the brushes more on leather cleaning than carpet.

I read about these brushes a couple of times on the forums so I decided to try one on my UDM and let me say, it is the fastest and easiest way I have ever cleaned floor mats.
