Outstanding video. You show what needs to be seen, and you give great benchmarks, "This is what you want to see." That's so essential to anyone following a new procedure for their first time. You not only know your stuff, but you communicate it very well. What a pleasure.
AMAZING. I've been trying for months to get a few horrible stains out of my carpet. Tried oxiclean and other solutions but nothing worked. Stains went from purple/black, to blue to green. Followed the directions in this video and the stains are GONE! Thank you!
Bob, i don't know how to say this but you might actually be a god. I rescue & foster all kind of animals & let me tell you, the stains that they leave on the carpets are freakin' ridiculous! I have rented expensive steam cleaners, bought countless stain & odor removing products & was about to give up & buy a whole new carpet, until i came across this video. I can't even express how happy i am that someone FINALLY made a video that explains what you need to do & what not to do. THANK YOU SO MUCH!
Yes, it works!! I watched the video and then tried on my pet stains. The stains came out! Thank you so much!
Can I give this video a thousand likes? !! I seriously didn't think it was going to work. I had a red vomit stain frm last month when the kids got sick, I had given up hope after trying a few stain removers. This took all the stain out. Haha yes, im THAT happy. :)
That's a really interesting and cost effective method. Thanks for the great tips!
I tried everything to get a set in red juice stain out of my beige carpet. Nothing worked until I tried the method of removing the stain with a steam iron and wet rags. It worked perfectly! Thank you for providing this tip!!
Wow! That's an amazing trick to remove stains on carpets. Thank you for sharing!
Fantastic tip Bob! Love your work.
Nevermind! I just saw the end of the video and you answered my question! Thanks!
Thanks so much this has made my carpet look brand new. And it's such a Cheap method.
Thanks
Awesome! Thanks for the excellent tip!
Yes it does work on old pee stains.. I just spent hours in my hallway where my toy poodles' been leaving secrets for who knows how long. Thanks Bob.
What a great video! Thanks for the help!!!
Thank you SOOOOO MUCH! We were trying to sell our house. Right when we were about to give up, we found out someone that is interested in buying it. Our dog crapped a very sickly green color that we couldn't get out. She only did this because she is in a very poor condition of anemia. YOU SAVED OUR CARPET and possibly the sale of our home!
Great presenter, great tip.
After using the stand up carpet cleaner tank for over an hour I decided to find a better way to get rid of my stains. If only I had done before, after tank, and and your method. Your method makes our carpet look brand new! I will never use the stand up tanks again for stains! Thank you!
Thanx a lot Bob.. This method helped me to get rid of OLD Incense - Stick Stains from my Carpet. I was able to get rid of about 90% of the stain. You The Man !!!!
Now that's cool, I'll have to give this a try. I absolutely hate our living room carpet as it gets stains just from you looking at it wrong. I love your videos, I've learned so much. Thanks!
Totally worked took two days and finally got this juice out my carpet
You saved me from getting my @** whipped
Very nice!!! I wish I knew about this along time ago!!! Thanks Bob:)
good video, thanks for sharing your tips!
All I can say is WOW! I had some old kitty vomit stains on a rug that I could not get out. I tried 3 different cleaners and essentially gave up until I couldn't stand to look at them any more. I did a google search and found this video. It worked so easily I couldn't believe it. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Thank you Bob for your tip, it's works , I had a dry coffe for 8 months, now it's in the past
Interesting and very well illustrated! We have a couple of spots on our carpet that I'm going to apply this process to. Very dark from our dog having the same problem. It'll be interesting because the spots are much larger, darker and on beige carpet! I like the fact that your video is not long and drawn out. Thank you. I subscribed and gave you a thumbs up!
Thanks bob.. although my home is fully tiled .. I got rid of all the wall to wall carpet.. but.. it is yet another nice tip from you ..
Thanks again.. and keep them coming :)
Thank you, thank you, thank you, we have had a stain of mud the size of texas since we moved in to our apartment. This is the only thing that has actually worked. Again thank you!
Awesome, Glad to hear it! +++Bob
Glad to hear you had good results and you are very welcome +++Bob
this was awesome and wryly humorous thanks
Perfect! I actually need this for red cool aid!
Awesome! I ran out of spot cleaner and I was desperate for a quick fix to get out some dark stains in my carpet since I have company coming over tomorrow. I rushed the steps a little but it still got most of the stains out. Dawn dish soap works waaay better and smells better too than that spot cleaner from the store. I'm just going to buy Dawn from now on. Thanks!
Thank you Bob! My puppy got into some food coloring and got it all over the carpet and herself. I needed to look this up fast because it was late and my mom would be really mad about the stain cause the puppy is causing enough trouble that we have to keep her in a kennel when we are out.
It really work, I just cleaned up my sons read soda stains.
PERFECT!!!
Thank you very much sir! This worked like magic! Had a soda spill that set in for about a week come right out! Looks like it was never there!
Thanks, this helped me remove a few deep stains in my carpet.
Amazing. I have no words. I saw this video about an hour ago, so I gave it a shot on a stain that was about 5 months old. It was cat vomit with yellow bile in it. I'm was completely shocked after the first treatment. There was almost nothing there. So I repeated, and used the blow dryer and it's completely gone. We had tried almost every chemical spray you can think of. We even had a cleaning crew come and work on it. Thank you SO much for this video!
Thank you so much for this video. My cat took bad to some new food and threw up about 15 times on my new carpet. I tried oxi clean, pet stain cleaners, went out and bought a 300$ steam cleaning. Nothing could get it out. it sat their stained for over 2 weeks until my iron arrived in the mail. finally it arrived and within about 2 to 3 minuets each, the stains were all gone. really bad stains too. not ones you could barely sea but red stains on white carpet about 4" in diameter. Again, thank you so much for this video.
See the logic you are putting forward and I would not hesitate to make the wet dry vac a part of the process , assuming you have one, Thanks for the info and making me and others think of better ways! +++Bob
Hi, my name is Pierre carpet cleaner in montreal, This carpet cleaning tips is safe and easy to use on any synthétic carpet. Starting with soap and finishing with vinegar is better even if it's not urine. It's always good to finish with acid this will avoid the carpet zone you clean to stay sticky and to get darker with time.
This really works!!!! I just tried it today! At 1:12 am! And it really works! Thanks so much! I had this Coke spill on my carpet! Got the iron the table spoon the towels and the two cups of hot water and went to work and it works!!!! Glad you helped because if you didnt boy my parents would've punished me! I'm 12 years old and I go to central middle!!! Thanks so much!
Truley awesome :-) thanks Bob
Amazing! It worked great!
great tips for carpet cleaning at home
I am showing you a way I have had great success with, It certainly would not hurt to try+++Bob
Thankyou so much!! It works!!
Going to give this a try.
I tried it, it really works..
keep coming, good job..
I just came home to what looks like a crime scene at a waste treatment facility. There is literally "splashes" of dog diarhea on my coffe table! I was going to call a preist to have an exorcism over my dog and carpet, but I'll try your method first. I hope to God it works.
thanks for the video, i have a cat who is getting old and gets sick a lot and my carpet is covered in stains, I have used several different commercial products with 0 luck. going to give this a try, it looks promising.
Bob,
been cleaning carpet for 24 years and the hot iron transfer is used professionaly to remove dye stains in nylon carpet. spots are (as defined by not permanent type) and stains are (as defined by more permanent). Most surfactants (soaps) will encourage the dye to find dye sites in the yarns quicker so the first attack should always be immediate wet/dry vac suction pouring cold water as you go and do it as soon as possible before the stain drys or locks in as it dehydrates or concentrates.
You remind me of Billy Bob Thorton! :)
great tips! Hope it works for my thicker carpet :$
Bob you rock!!! I had a large stain on my carpet not sure what it was from. I tried your method and the stain is gone. Thank you Thank you Thank you.
Lynn
I tried this technique even before I saw this video and it really works!
Where can I find myself a man who cleans up dog vomit? I didn't think that they existed!
Great job, and thanks for the lesson!
excellent im gonna try it RIGHT NOW!
@carpetdyesticks Thank you for your insight, good knowledge to have.+++Bob P.S I checked out your videos as well, How often do people get bleach stains on their carpets or does your system work with any kind of stain that lightens carpet?
If not perfect much improved+++Bob
wow, talk about clever....but how would you translate this to a large space? I mean, I dont know what my son's been doing but half the carpet in his room is flat and brown, while the other half is fluffy and soft blue as it is meant to be....how do I clean such a large space using your method? it took you that long to do a 4" spot, can you imagine if I had to repeat those steps over and over for half a room? :(
Nice job with the how to information. I have been a carpet cleaning professional for over 15 years and just a word of caution.... Be careful how much soap you use and make sure to wash out completely. Also don't leave the iron on the carpet to long because it can cause heat burn on your carpet.
I will try this. I have an ugly stain or 3 I have had no luck with using my carpet cleaning machine.
Thank you for ths..I will be trying this and let you know. :)
Great tip!! Thanks!!
Wish I could help your dog out too.lost mine last year and miss her bad! Thanks+++Bob
Today I woke up to a green laundry-detergent spill on my tan carpet, gah. It was an atrocious puddle the size of a large dinner platter (it was spilling from the pantry all night because of a little crack in the plastic). I soaked up as much as I could, then I applied Bob's iron technique. It worked! Like it never happened. This saved me a trip to the store.
Your the lifesaver !!!! Thank you I also subscribed !
YOU ARE*
This comment is sooooo true! I cannot tell you how many times I have had to tell helpers and subs to please" STAY ON THE DROPS OR RUNNERS!"Only to have to say it again,again,again! Lol +++Bob Do you think it's legal to take a paper to them?
That would be the one I have not heard. let me know if it worked +++Bob
I bet you would have alot of tips to share,I know I would like to spruce up the furniture around my house.Thanks for the post,by the way what is folex?+++Bob
@carpetdyesticks I appreciate your info,however, The stomach acid and or whatever else was in the dog vomit did leave a mark on the carpet that was removed and did not damage the carpet the way I showed to do it. I have had the same results with non-berber carpet in my home. That being said, it is not the only way to clean carpet stains for the homeowner and we would appreciate any suggestions you could offer+++Bob
yay it worked. pulled the blue ink right out!
amazing i just cleaned two fake tan staines out of a carpet i have been trying to clean it for a week. got rid of a few other staines two like girlfriends makeup etc. thanks alot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Pro Spot stain remover is used by professional carpet steam cleaners and works great. Its great and doesnt need any extra tools. Its made by K&C Distribution out of Scappoose, Oregon and can be found online.
I would try it on small test area first, then proceed from there.+++Bob
Sorry to hear that what was the stain and how old was it? +++Bob
@manhun7 I would give it a shot, never tried it for that but certainly could not hurt+++Bob
My roommate just moved out and I discovered a dried dog urine stain on the white carpet in his room. I don't know how long it's been there for but it's dried. I smells terribly like urine in there as soon as the room warms up or gets humid. Will this cleaning method remove the urine stench as well? Especially concerned about the stench now that the humid weather is coming!
@mistressracer Wow great testimonial! Just for information purposes, do you know what the reddish-brown stain was? +++Bob
good one...
I did not know you have one. What would I search to find it?+++Bob
HI - I am artist and I have some large oil paint stains in the appt I rent. It's basic beige cheap carpet and I want to get these up rather than loose my deposit - will this work or what do you recommend. I didn't try this yet because I don't know if it would make the stain worse - thank you!
umm i need to clean my upholstery, i'm just wondering about water stains before i start the task on my light blue suite, what can you advise bob..?
Hey bob i worked with a carpeting company. And they claim to customers they couldn't clean that kind of stain.now im starting my own carpet cleaning biz.Thanks for the tip.:-) im out
Good work Bob
do you have any tip's on a radiator (dark and nasty, and my fault !!!)r leak on a woolen carpet???
It's either clean it or leave home because my wife is going to kill me !
I have used this method with cool aide stains that have been left in the carpet. I just used a little oxi clean in two cups hot water with a a few drops of dish soap. It worked really well after I spent hours with a commercial grade carpet shampooer and it didnt work i googled some other ideas after several hit with this method you cannot even see where the cool aide was.. it does take some time but it works like a charm. Any light colored towel or rag will work. I used several old receiving blankets, you just want to make sure they are light enough that you can see the stain coming through.
Please let me know how it goes!+++Bob
nice going
Instead of using a degreaser or dish detergent (which will not remove synthetic dye (red see #4)) you'll need a reducing agent. Find one at a janitorial supply store - my favorite is called Red Relief.
which chemicals did you use for stain removal?
Use an ammonia solution, wet towels and an iron, Follow the same procedures outlined here. Only the chemical changes. You are talking about cat food upchucked by the cat. That stain is a mix of stomach acid and Red Food Dye #4 which only ammonia will get. I have a carpet cleaning company and we use something called Red Out which basically is ammonia.
Amazing technique and I am going to try it because carpet is evil and it's main design is to trap dirt.
you saved my ASS!!! Thank you!!!!
Hey sir, will this work if hair dye stain remained on my carpet for 2 years? Please answer!
does this work for old stains too? i need to get rid of some stains in my carpet.
Clean the whole floor with carpet cleaner first!+++Bob
it worked on big stains for me just fine.
Folex is the best instant spot remover I've found too. Plus it only costs about 5.00.
We've got one of those cheap beige carpets that come installed in apartments. The type with soft loosely woven fabric; not tightly woven like the one in the video. Not sure if you follow. But my mom spilled dark coffee and I made the mistake of scrubbing with soap and water. The stain got down so deep it looks like it is part of the carpet now! We've tried Oxi Clean, dedicated solvents for coffee stains, among others. Nothing works! It's been 2 months. What else can I do?!
I'm new to this so I was just wondering, I don't have a wet vac. Would that be a problem? Or can I just let that air dry
