Re: Carpet stain removal help
Folex should do a very good job with those, especially with the LGCM. Spray the Folex on, let it sit a little, scrub, extract. For the dark spots, don't de afraid to 'soak' that area a little.
The Woolite will also work but it does sud up a lot, which really isn't great for the LGCM. It could leave a soapy residue if it isn't fully extracted as well. I like a Woolite mix of about 10-15 : 1 for general all around cleaning. For carpets you could use it 6:1.

Re: Carpet stain removal help
I've always found Woolite to be too mild and foams far too much for carpet cleaning
Carpets- 303™ Rug / Upholstery Cleaner & Spot Remover or Folex Instant Carpet Spot Remover
P21S Total Auto Wash (its active ingredient is d-limonene (citrus) a safe all purpose cleaner (APC)
Woolite® Heavy Traffic Carpet Foam or Hoover Deep Cleansing Carpet/Upholstery Detergent

I posted these photos to see if Folex would take them out. I have never cleaned an interior before. Vaccumed maybe.

Re: Carpet stain removal help
What I do with fairly decent results I think is initially use Folex and work the area well. I dab it dry with cotton towels (white if you've got 'em). For the mats, same as above but then I power wash, use a MP cleaner (or leftover car wash soap), power wash well again and vacuum as dry as you can. You will need time for them to dry however, but that way you can add the groovy stripes and make it look unique (as well as very clean).

Re: Carpet stain removal help
Folex is your friend! Just spray, let it sit a minute, agitate with a scrub brush (or a Cyclo brush on your PC or UDM), wipe with a white terry towel, vacuum. No more stains.

Re: Carpet stain removal help
I have used the Dow Bathroom Cleaner with Scrubbing bubbles on carpet for years.
Spray the carpet with the scrubbing bubbles and let it soak in for a minute. Then take a soft bristle brush and scrub the stains out.
Works every time
