  • insane amounts of coffee inbeded into carpet

    my older neighbor asked me if i knew any way to pull out coffee from her 95 Suburban's grey carpet which has roughly 7 or 8 years of accumulated stains. I told her try warm soap and water, or a light carpet cleaner but she has had very little sucess. any suggestions?

        Is the carpet stiff from build up or just discolored ?

            Tried it a couple weeks ago. Works great. Took some kind of grease stain out of a clients honda. Just spray it on, take a damp cloth and blot the stain away.

              Quik out, I'd spray a thick foam build up in the stain, let it soak and also brush in with a nylon brush. I found that it may take about 3 times and also terry cloth toweling thoroughly.

              I've had good results with it and it applies better than other foams like TurtleWax carpet cleaner.

                try dry brushing to loosen up fibers followed by vac, then give the extractor another shot. If you can at least get the fibers soft again but still discolored sem makes automotive spray can fabric and carpet dyes might improve the appearance try a test spot under a seat first with light coats and dry brush between coats to keep soft when dying.

                  The Sem products work great when you got to recolor carpet.

                    Quik Out, scrub and extract, if the stain is over years of spills, it may have worked itself in the padding. I sucked several mocha's out of the teenagers car with liberal amount of scrubbing with Quik Out and a brush. Used a lot of water and used a terry cloth to help soak it up, then used my extractor.

                      Quickout.
                      Just test on a small area first and see how reacts, you never know.

                        Quickout. Make sure you agitate it very well, extract.

                          I´d soak for a minute or two in APC 1:7 or so, dry then vacuum
                          And then do it again!. Coffee is not that simple though

                            If you or your neighbor can't get the stains out yourselves you could always take it to a detail shop and just ask them to do the interior.

                            Be sure to show them the area you bring up in this thread so they know to pay more attention to it.
