Here's a few pics of the results.


    It is the best product, I discovered it about 2 years ago when either, Asphalt rocket, or Killerwheels told me about it.......still using it !!

    I bought a quart of it at the local grocery store just to try out. They have it by the gallon at Home Depot or Lowe's by the rental carpet cleaners.

    I used it yesterday to remove some seriously old stains from the carpet, cloth seat and headliner. Works great. Spray, scrub, and walk away if spot cleaning. If the stain is really dirty and I have to use a lot of product, then I will extract it with the LGBM.

    For what it's worth, I dilute this stuff for use in my Bissell (Auto Version with Heat).

    The Bissell container has a dilution scale on it, and I premix gallons of the Folex and Water per that ratio, and just use it in the machine. It works great for MOST light marking on carpets, etc. For heavier stains I just spray the Folex straight and scrub before using the hot water to rinse and extract.

    I know this is an old thread, but this looks amazing, I wonder if I can just use the hose, I don't have a pressure washer, Today I tried Folex & this was the best I was able to achieve on the passenger side, I want them to look new if possible like yours!

    I know you didn't ask me, but....

    When no extractor or pressure washer is available:

    Pre soak with product. Be thorough but Dont soak.
    Agitate with stiff carpet brush.
    Wipe with clean dry MF or terry towel. Horizontal, then vertical.
    Lightly mist with product.
    Wipe again with dry MF or terry. Same directions.
    Slowly vacuum with shop vac.

    Repeat if needed.

    DA carpet brush can be used as well. This process works great when little or no equipment is available.

    Thanks I appreciate any advice, I'm totally new to everything detail related. One think I have noticed is everything is pretty time consuming.
