Go to the Generel Care Forum... And ask for Intel486. He's a detailing guru.

No too Surfactants.

Do not use anything that has surfactants such as resolve. These cleaners onlycover the stain and do not remove it. The problem with the carpet in our cars is that it is made of extremely cheap materials that will stain and bleach out very easily. The only way to really get out the stain is to extract it with a steam cleaner. I have worked with a good friend of mine cleaning carpets for 6 plus years and know. Best bet would be too have it professionally extracted as the machines you can rent do not have the suction to fully pull the water out of the carpet which can lead to shrinking or stretching of the carpet. Sorry for being so long winded and hope this info helps. Feel free to contact me with any questions.

I agree, try Oxyclean! You can get it at Walmart usually and there are very few cleaners out there that can remove things that oxyclean can't. I think their website is http://www.oxyclean.com or http://www.greatcleaners.com

U could be like me and have yours replaced under warranty =)

(course you do have to have 2 pretty bad window leaks before it can happen)

PS i use the same stuff cliff suggestd (the stanley steamer spot remover) works awesome. The other thing i use is the 'lil green machine' and dilute the stuff you use in there a tad, works awesome.
