    Grocery stores and Big Box stores rent Carpet Machines.It would be a lot easier to use a machine.

    I use Folex for stubborn stains. It works great.

    I bought a bottle at Home Depot for about $8. I did some on line research & found it to be a great choice. I had tried expensi dry shampoo from bed bath & beyond that didn't touch the dirt stains on the stairs. Folex took all the dirt stains out. i did have to clean them twice but they look really good now. I also used it on a red Samsonite piece of luggage & it cleaned up really well!

      So it comes in a spray or foam and you spray on the stains? Will it get pet stains out as well? I have a good recliner that has to be cleaned too? Please Respond back! Thank-You!

    Comes in a spray. I don't know if it gets out pet stains... all I have is a husband.
