On passenger floorboard I have some stains that have recently surfaced and I tried this carpet spray stuff I got at auto store and no luck. What is the best cleaner that won't destroy the carpet yet works? Thanks!

I just had mine detailed, where they shampooed the carpets and I had some old stains that came out. Wish I knew what they used on this. There are a few different cleaners in most auto stores, but I assume some stains may be to stuborn for any cleaner!

Resolve is the best, I use it on my car and couches and other items in the house. Great for lifting stains

Resolve does the best to loosen the stain. However, most of the stain goes down into the carpet. Borrow a home style carpet cleaning machine that has a furniture attachment and hose and use that after treating the stain. Then you lift out the stain plus the residue of the cleaner. If you do not lift out the cleaner residue, the spot will attract more dirt and you will be cleaning the same spot over and over.

that good? there is a dealer not to far from where I live. I have never done business with them so wonder if they will give me some? I'll give it a shot, I have a couple of juice stains from my son, he has dropped his juice boxes on passenger floor boards where dripples of juice have come out and I didn't notice till days later. :(
