Best Carpet Shampoo
I'm looking for a good shampoo with these qualities:
1) Bulk. Looking to get the most bang for my buck
2) Will work well with the pc carpet brush
3) Removes stains (will be using folex for anything heavy)
4) Leaves behind a nice scent
This will not be going in an extractor, like I mentioned above it will just be used with the PC brush attachment. Thanks in advance.

I use apc or folex 1:4 and scrub with a brush then vacuum and hit tough spots with folex undiluted blot vacuum and blot whole carpet one last time

Re: Best Carpet Shampoo
I love my folex but I was hoping for something I can dilute, spray on the mats and go over them with my PC brush. Maybe something that foams a little? I'm having trouble even finding something like this on AG.

Yep, this is what I do also. Folex works great for spots and surface cleaning but if I need a deeper clean I'll use my favorite APC. The Meg's APC cleans good but has a soap smell, Simple green is also nice but get tired of the same old smell. My favorite is Adam's APC but it's costly but it smells great.
I have thought of trying some others to find one that smells as nice as the Adam's to save money, any recommendations anyone?

Folex = Lowes, Home Depot, Wal-Mart.
By the way, the Wolfgang carpet cleaner is outstanding. Costly but I can mist it over carpet that already looks clean and it will brighten it up nicely.

To the OP: Meg's APC+
APC works nicely but has a chemical smell that I have to let dissipate when I use.

Well, if you want foamy, megs APC is your best bet out of the things I've used. Though it does smell interesting, the smell does not linger. Megs APC+ has an Orange smell and does not foam at all and cleans about the same.
