Much to Jimmy's chargin, Releasit EncapClean DS mixed at 1:10

Between that, a small bottle of perc dry cleaning fluid and a soft terry towel cloth I can get a lot of marks out without even breaking out the spotting machine.

Obviously coloured drink stains aside.

Steam Way First Action Spotter. Works on many spots, has a slight foaming effect that has been successful with many filtration and toner type spots also. Of course, sometimes you still need a solvent spotter. It also comes in spray bottles for public sales.

I LIKE the smell of Fels naptha !!!

Fels or citrus gels are our number one "go to" all purpose spotters

the knock-it- out spotter from xerion solutions work awesome, keep bottles of it in my truck ph of 8 customers love it as well, safe for both carpet and upholstery and wool, rinses off with no discoloration to fiber bit expensive if you ask me, but hey it works.

Steamway First Action spotter, good for about everything except dye stains and paint.

Just order a gal already its like $25. Pour straight in a trigger sprayer and shoot to kill. May need a little Nike scrub then rinse.

Re: Most efective overall spotter?

I have to tell you guys I was disappointed with the Fels Naptha. For a general purpose spotter I use shout laundry pretreatment mixed 50/50 with water. It will take out anything Fels will and you won’t look like a retard cleaning carpets with a bar of soap. Degreaser works great, but it burns up trigger sprayers fast.

peroxide

cyclone

hel gel

Same here.

Although I just might replace cyclone with the new spot n boost. It's on it' way.

Also, EncapGreen mixed stronger.

I never said Fels doesn’t work. I just was not able to take anything out with it that I was not already able to remove. IMO Fels is a little more time consuming and harder on the back to.
