Yesterday I encountered something I hadn't seen before. Cigarette smoke resifue seemed to have redyed a carpet. Per the photo, the bottom left is the apparent color of the carpet, the top left more or less the orifinal color (it was under a rug). The right-hand side reflects the results after my cleaning attempt (top right was severely stained, the bottom right had been like the the bottom left). I used a SaigerCide deodorizing prespray, dual-cylindrical brush agitation, and flush/extracted using a Steamin Demon.
Does anyone know of a product I could use that would break down the residue? I was thinking about trying a mild ammonia solution (fiber is nylon) or perhaps a solvent (maybe citrus?). Other thoughts or suggestions?
