2 hours on that sob.


Cobbs cARb cleaner
Bridgepoint Gel something or other
CTI Pro Solve Gel
Hand Sanitizer
Butler ultra high pH spot cleaner
Sapphire Tile and Concrete cleaner
Spit
Sweat
Flem

piss and vinegar..



I had to rush back to do the Aaron webinar so I spazzed and didn't get an after shot, but I'd say I got 94.7 percent out after 2 f'n hours

Don't believe Cobb about his Carb Cleaner not bothering the latex foundation...... roops.


Use as little as possible.

I hope you got $300 for that.

 

[Wandslinger]

Did you skip the CTI power gel? Probably your mistake. That stuff will allow you to rinse that crap out.

I have had perfect success with Oil Flow. Mist then gently vac. Repeat as needed. It can take 50 applications but it takes seconds for each step.

Here's a formula that works pretty we'll for most tough ink...
Start by treating the spot with with CTI's "Ink Out".
If it's persistent, follow up with CTI's "ProSolve gel".
Next treat the previous concoction with CTI's "PowerGel" and rinse thoroughly.
And if there's any residual color from the ink, finish up with CTI's "Red Relief".

This is where a Kool glide seaming iron and razors come in handy!

Should have sold them on FPA...

We've had good success with IMR... I can't for the life of me remember who makes it.. (having a senior moment)

I've always used Power Gel emulsifier to contain the ink before adding other spotters.

 

[Pat Muller]

I sure would be using InkExit on this one
Water based and very effective
See it work in this video

Obviously you dont work the hoods. If you need more practice come on by.

Im in Michigan have been for 20 years this time.

 

[mirf]

I spent 12 years in Fendale MI. Still go to Louie's pizza in Hazel Park when I get Back.

All inks are different.

 

[Jimmy L]

Tell them to just throw a rug over it.

Just admit it. You were high from the Stain Solv

 

[Charlie Lyman]

That would be a big patch. Would you take out the whole square around it, or cut out the ink lines?

 

[Askal]

Gee it's not that complicated. Use nvds and when happy use vds. What's with the name brand stuff.

 

[WillS]

Where's the after pic?!

 

[hogjowl]

It never happened

 

[GeneMiller]

I was able to remove one like that a dog had chewed. I got lucky it was white and I used solvent and finished with bleach. Personally I don't bother these days because that volume after hours it might still look bad. The last one I did a small part only to show the finished results and she opted for a patch.

 

[Mikey P]

Im not positive it was ink.

There were wads the size of marbles and it all was rock hard..

Dried slime?

 

[Mikey P]

in that pattern?



probably not..

I'd do a big patch.
If they don't have any extra carpet you swap that piece out with some from a closet. Most people won't care if there is a stain on closet carpet.

 

[Jim Morrison]

How many terry towels did you go thru? We have been packing isopropyl in the spotting kit for the last year, very effective on some inks.

Ya all inks are different but I've had success with red1 so it doesn't migrate, then I start the assorted ink removers stain solv POG. Hand sanitizer in a gel is awesome the alcohol. Kinda rinse repeat pray.

I will hopefully pick up some ink at Mccalla's
