Well there is just some dirt stains that are apparent that I think could come out but I'm not sure what is the best cleaner for it. Can you get OXiClean anywhere retail wise?

A hot water extraction cleaner. I prefer Carpet Express over Rug Doctor (Carpet Express is not available everywhere, but it is also re-badged at Home Depot Tool Rental centers.)

The key is not to use all the soap and stuff. Just pre-treat spots with a mild detergent or oxy-clean style cleaner and use straight hot water in the machine.

Where do you purchase that?

OxiClean can be found in Walmart, Kroger or any other grocery ... maybe Tuff Stuff too. If not, try an autostore like AutoMasters....

Yeah, for stains. Bissel has this stuff called Oxy Kic, it worked the best out of the ten different things I tried on a stain.

Your right though LikeLinus, but it does seem as if oxi clean is the best way to go. Now its time to get a good brush to get the stuff out! Thanks for all your help/comments fellas/ladies!

Folex from Home Depot for most stains....short of professional steam and extraction machines.

Never had anything ruined with it either.
