We all do

I would break it into much smaller pieces.
Put in a hand held foamer sprayer.
Add hot water and mix using a paint mixer on a cordless drill...
Then foam the filtration lines let dwell and extract.
For precautions and avoiding damage a plastic sheet was used against base boards for less damage from hand tools and or overspray...
Took extra time -yes made extra money whilst promoting the value of the service for the client ...
Horsehair brush for agitation or a grout cleaning type brush to heavy remove clumps.
Force dried as well.
The foamer made the chem go further whilst promoting top to middle soil removal...
Worked well for me...Hello All ,only half day of work here-trying to pace myself better...

For many years.

Fells works splendidly well on it's own without all the "Garage Grandma" recipes.

The operating manual is tough though: Open wrap, wet carpet, rub gently, rinse very well.

That’s in poor taste Damon....

Fels first because it fits in my pocket. If that doesn't work, PC-45. Not too much gets past these two, but if there is something brutal, I'll go back to the truck for a specialty spotter.

Actually, quite campy, and funny...
Light hearted humour...
Why oh why must you be so, so, MARTYish all the time?
Is there ANYTHING in life that gives you joy, besides a recliner, lap dog, and a television?

I don't.
I like Googone.

 

[Mikey P]

If that doesn't work, PC-45

I could almost never get that stuff to impress me

 

[Mikey P]

I don't.
I like Googone.

I meant we, as in Those of us who actually clean residential carpet for a living

 

[Dolly Llama]

I like Googone.

I get goofoff and googone confused
(without looking up the SDS)

one is lighter fluid,(mostly xylene if I recall) the other is citrus terpenes

if you're using the citrus terpene one...it ain't all that.
Citrus gels are as good and better at less cost than off the shelf googone at HD

if you've never tried Fels, go to walmart and get a bar.
You be amazed at what a great all purpose spotter it is
....and down right CHEAP compared to all the other spotters

when we started using it, the citrus terpenes never got used for anything but paint or gum

And Fells won't delaminate the carpet if you ever use it

I tried it. I wasn't impressed and it left a stain on my white work shirt too.
Googone rocks. Small pee hole bottle fits in pocket. I've gone through many bottles of it. Removes most ink stains gum paint and the unknown.

I've not had a problem with it. That I know of.
