it has alot of stubin stains on etc.-blackcurrent juice that has been spillt and leftDoes any body have any tips on how to get a cream carpet clean has lots of stains on it?
First, contrary to other, NEVER , EVER, use Washing Up liquid on a carpet. Washing Up Liquid contains Glycerine (which is why its 'kind to your hands' tra la etc(TV adverts) The carpet retains a flim of Glycerine, and all the dirt sticks to it in quick time.
Now, the 'fix'. get some rubber gloves, a 'not too hard scrubbing brush', some Ammonia (Boots the Chemist) some Vax carpet cleaning concentrate, and a wet vacuum cleaner.
Mix the carpet cleaner concentrate as per the instructions, add about 20% Ammonia. Open the windows wide, rubber gloves on, scrub the carpet with your mixture. This serves to loosen all the dirt etc. Then using the wet vac and clean water, rinse well, removing the rinse water with the wet vac. Yes, its hard work, does wonders for the waistline!!!! but, works.Does any body have any tips on how to get a cream carpet clean has lots of stains on it?

Try OxyClean and remember not to scrub, just dab with a dry towel.
Have you tried hiring a cleaner? if not try Focus their industrial cleaner is very good , my sister hired one for the weekend and it was not expensive.
get carpet stain remover from the supermarket or call a cleaning company who are specialized in carpets.
if possible purchase an up right vax carpet cleaner my friend bought one because she has cream carpets and 2 children under 3 and it works a treat it looks as new as when the carpet was laid.
Hi
I would recommend using a wet vac and slowly pour hot water (almost to the boiling point) on the spot and vacuum it up at the same time (this will open up the dye ports on the carpet fibre releasing the stain. and remove the residue from the carpet). If the stain is still visible than use a little carpet spotter on it or Dawn dishwashing liquid (2 or 3 drops into one cup of water) and repeat step 1. The stain may come back in a few days so you may have to do this a few times. Please DO NOT put anything on the carpet that was not made for carpet. At this point if the stain is still there please call a carpet cleaner.
