Clean Freak - this time OxyDeep

[Edwina's Secretary]

But NOOOOOOOO ... the Urk & Gurk starts and the urge to *wander* sets in ...

Oh yes! That is Edwina's specialty. Eddie is more - "where ever I am is a good place to hurl"...rather annoying when he is sleeping in our "not yet made" bed (I suppose it IS easier to wash the sheets/bedspread than the carpet...) or a favorite - while sleeping on an antique quilt.

Thanks for the tip! I have written down the name and I will pick some up and add it to my arsenal. I have been using Simple Green for throw up spots (thank you Ripley ) and it seems to work well but does a better job if you get to the stain when it happens. There is nothing worse than coming home from work and finding a "surprise" that has been there for probably hours. Bella has only gotten sick twice in the almost nine years that we have had her and Andy unleashes his hairballs in the basement. He is such a good boy. I half expect to find them in the litterbox. haha!

Gosh, I've been using the Woolite P.O.D. (portable oxy deep) for almost 2 years now.

It works great on cat vomit stans, and just about any other stain I have. I can't hardly find the P.O.D. part anymore. However since there's always a conspiracy about discontinuing any product I like, I bought several P.O.D.'s when I first found them, then found out that Oxy Deep was what was in them. So I saved my empty P.O.D.'s and just refill them (even though it says it's not refillable, they lie)

I like that I don't have to haul around a brush, bottle and paper towel. I just grab my P.O.D. and go to town.

Hey I wonder if it would be ok to use an oxy clean solution in my carpet cleaner.

I seriously clean the carpets EVERY SINGLE WEEK. Every tuesday I clean the carpets. the cleaner that I use is the normal carpet cleaner solution you buy for those things and it works well enough but I wonder if I could use oxyclean in it and it might work BETTER

I just did a search on carpet cleaning. Any "soap" or "cleaner" leaves an oiley residue that attract dirt. I read that instead of the cleaner, you should use white vinegar. Maybe spotclean with the oxy but generel clean with the oxy?

I normally use Tide or Wisk in my rinse-n-vac and then go back over it again with plain water as a rinse to get out the soap. I figure you don't wash your clothes without a rinse cycle, why not the carpets as well.

OMG....

I did it today. Washed my carpets with an oxyclean solution.

all I can say is AMAZING!!!!!

The carpets look brand new. it took EVERY stain out and didn't leave the carpet feeling crunchy.

I will never use regular carpet cleaner again lol. I'm so excited about how beautiful the carpet looks.
