What shampoo to use with hot water extractor

[greg g]

I recently took delivery of a Mytee Lite hot water extractor and am really excited to use it for the first time. I’m looking for some recommendations on which cleaner/shampoo to use.

I plan on using those round drill brushes and spot cleaner on the heavy stains

Any tips/suggestions/ advice will be greatly appreciated.

Congratulations on your Mytee. Mine has definitely improved my interior gsme.

I get great results from Zep Premium Carpet Shampoo from Home Depot, with Folex for pre-spotting.

Use a shampoo designed for extractors. Also I highly suggest using an anti-foam agent in the recovery tank. If you want to have your extractor for a long time I also suggest running clean water thru it each time you have finished using it along with the other suggestions I have made.

I would suggest to never run a shampoo through your extractor. It is hard on the pump. Use your shampoo as a prespray. Only run a neutralizing rinse through your extractor
