I know the feeling. The carpet looks great when I'm done...but those kool-aid stains stick out like a sore thumb. If I were a magician like Ted I could create the "illusion" that the stain had been removed. |

So which is better Goof off(what is Goof off?) or Red dye remover(what process, iron to towel?) Where do you purchase Goof off?, How do you use it? Thanks for responding. What is the best for getting coffee out? How about paint? These have been the pain in the butts for me, I can't stand not getting everything out. I just did a job 1000sq ft townhome, I made it look wonderful except two kool aid stains. I got the rust, pop sickle, gum out, but not the red stuff. It drives me nuts because I can see it in my customers eyes how badly they want it out, especially on a rental situation. |

One thing that must be said for Mr. steamer....he's honest, tells us exactly how he feels,and what he does........he reminds me of an old train robber I once talked with, grab the money and run.......it's just that it's hard to make that second phone call 12 months later and tell her it's times to clean her carpet again, while she got out the stains with Goof-Off whereas you being a pro couldn't.

you take one spot out you'll be a hero....she'll have ten more...you'll waste another hours or so...then they won't ever be as carefull...and they'll spill that crap everytime Cuz they know that you can get it out...it'll cost you a smalll fortune at Teds cuz you'll always need that stuff to get that stain out.. I'm a carpet cleaner...not a furniture mover...not a vac man...not a stain remover...I wash it and if it doesn't comeout to bad.... I always carry a spot bottle on myside with soap...and if that doesn't take it out...to bad.... |

Goof Off for kool-aid?? You have to be kidding. This should be fairly simple heat transfer with an red dye remover.Call the operator of this board , Kleen Kuip for more info. Edited by LeeS. |

Hey Kool-Aid, just don't tell Mr. Steamer what I'm about to tell you, but before I do, please all you other action packed know it alls out there don't be telling me how wrong I am, how unprofessional I am, how I know nothing of what I say, and so on and so on. When I have a stain that just won't come out I use a product called Goof-Off. This crap smells like hell, gives you a headache if you smell it too much, you don't want to be putting alot of it on the stain. One or two drops let it soak, rub only if you have to, blotting is better and extract. If that doesn't work there's another product called scissors, keep that handy too and when the customer is not around clip a few fibres, that sh*t always works. Fast story.......I once had a customer with a burn the size of a dime on the living room carpet......she was having guests that evening and wanted it gone........after cleaning the carpet, I later returned when it was dry and clipped fibres from inside the hallway closet cut out the burnt fibres and crazy glued the new fibres in place of the burnt ones. Customer was aware of what was happening, I did it for free, I still clean her carpets 2 times a year and the fibres never came out........this was 3 years ago jack from Montreal aka NIGHTRIDER |
