Good carpet shampoo?

[imported_hockeyplaya13]

What is a good shampoo for carpet? And I'm not talking about the little stain remover things, I want something to shampoo all the carpet in my truck.

Thanks!

Meguiars APC+ is a great product for this.



You going to be doing it by hand or with a extractor/little green machine?

I like Rug Renew from TOL.

I will be doing it by hand.

How about Chemical Guys Total Interior Cleaner?

Or Bi-o-kleen Traffic Lane Cleaner. Stuff works wonders.

You will want a dedicated carpet shampoo as opposed to an APC. Usually APC's have high ph which can cause carpet stiffness and quick re-soiling. The ph of carpet shampoo should be no more than 9-10ph. TOL's rug renew is a great product, although I use it in an extractor. Another option is a foaming cleaner which is good because the carpet does not get very wet. Stoner's Carpet and Upholster cleaner comes to mind.

I just used some DP Interior and Upholstery Cleaner yesterday on a detail for a couple small spots... worked awesome, and I didn't even use an extractor. Plus, the smell is great.



I have heard great things about the BioKleen TLC stuff, though.

Thanks guys! Does that DP foam well?

Anybody know of a good foaming shampoo? brwill2005 mentioned, Stoners. What about the Duragloss? Or any others.

TIA!

DP foamed pretty well for just using a brush, once you agitate it. It won't come out as foam, just a mist. But once you start working it in, it foams up.
