Hello. Hope you are fine. This is the answer for your question: Carpet Cleaning Tips to Keep Your Carpets Beautiful. Your carpets represent a very significant investment, and keeping them clean and new looking is an important part of enhancing the overall look and appeal of your home. Taking proper care of them is absolutely essential to insuring they will have a long and useful life. Here are some carpet cleaning tips to help you retain the beauty and wearability of your carpets. ** Clean your carpets regularly If you let dirt and oily residue collect on your carpet it will attact further dirt, and walking on the dirty areas will break down both the carpet fibers and the carpet base. It is best to frequently vacuum your carpets to remove as much loose dirt as possible -- to get down into the fibers and pull the dirt out before it becomes much more firmly embedded. ** Remove stains as quickly as possible Stains are caused by oily liquids dropped on the carpet. The liquid residue saturates areas of the fiber and leaves an ugly stain. Or they can result from dirty shoes or boots in high traffic areas. It is important to remove stains as quickly as possible because they become more difficult to remove when they are allowed to dry and harden. ** Scrape dried soil If soil or other kinds of dirt have been tracked into areas of your carpet, it will probably be necessary to scrape some of the areas where they have dried into small clumps. Use a blunt metal object to break up the dried spot and loosen the dirt so it can be vacuumed. ** Test spotting agents and stain removers Not all carpets are the same, and they react differently to different chemical cleaners. Always be sure to test a spotting or stain removal agent before applying it to a critical area. Apply it to a spot in a hidden area, and then let the test dry properly before proceeding to the visible areas of your carpet. ** Follow instructions when using chemical cleaning agents Do not use a harsh spotter or chemical cleaner without properly testing it, and always begin with a less harsh spotting agent. If that does not work, move on to something that is stronger. Be sure to follow the instructions provided with the spotting agent. They will usually include recommendations for application strength, and will give you some idea of the kinds of stains they can be effectively used to remove. Most strong spotters are either high acid or high alkaline based. After using one of these, neutralize the area by applying a neutralizing agent as recommended in the instructions. Or if it is not clear what neutralizing agent to use, use water to rinse the area thoroughly. ** Minimize detergent residue Whenever you use a detergent to clean your carpet you will probably leave a detergent residue in the fibers. This residue can build up and actually attract dirt and show up as powder within the fibers. So it is important to remove as much of the detergent residue as possible. Often vacuuming is not enough. You should occasionally use an extraction process that uses rotary scrubbing so the fibers are thoroughly cleaned. Hope your carpet is looking good. Hope you like it. Thank you.

if you had your carpet professionally cleaned then have them come back. If you cleaned your carpet then you need to have it cleaned professionally. The dirt that was in your carpet now has consolidated into spots in your carpet and now has dried. If you do not have it done promptly then your carpet will be ruined. I hope this helped you out.

"Unknown" was close, but a couple of things just not included. Scrubbing is the very last option. Don't do it unless all other attempts have failed. Call a pro. They have equipment that is at least 10 times more powerful than the rental machines. (The recovery of the solution IS key. The more you recover, the cleaner the carpet.) If we knew what caused the stain I could give a better answer for a product to remove it.

Here is a site that I would highly recommend. They have very high quality stain removal techniques. I would suggest repeating the process after the first application, and rinsing the rug out with cool water in between applications. Best of luck!

If your using a steam cleaner, instead of soap use white vinegar to wash the floors with. It will get out even set in stains, and I used it on burgundy carpet and it didnt change the color at all.

spot shot could u answer mine plz http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AvcaiqskD3c6IYMT_SIbT.gazKIX;_ylv=3?qid=20090707001053AAGZ8lj thx

Get an aerosol cleaner called Spot Shot. I get it at walmart. Just follow the instructions on the can. It won't get the stains out right away, but when it dries they'll be gone.
