| I was reading an old thread on carpet cleaners and someone mentioned that they used Oxyclean instead of soap. How much would you use in the solution? What about those who use white vinegar, what dilution would you use of that. With spring here, I want to rent one the cleaners and get to my carpets! Thanks loads for any input. |

| Everything I've been told from seminars on Carpet Cleaning they absolutely don't recommend Oxy anything on carpets....Do at you own risk. Also check the fine print on the rental agreement, you may be libel for using that in their machine. I know I would go after any customer who abused my rental machine. They aren't cheap!!! |

| Peoniesandposies I would suggest you find a janitorial supply house. I use their carpet cleaning product along with an odor eliminator. I've been using this combination for years. Each one comes in a gallon jug that's concentrated. I've always cleaned my own carpets, and am on my third carpet cleaning unit. Personally some of the big name products sold in the store seem to leave an oily residue on the carpet that attracts more dirt. |
