Does anybody know of a good carpet cleaner/extractor for use in detailing auto interiors?

I haven't found anything that looks decent for under $500 and that's a bit spendy for me.

 

spendy :gheylaugh:

 

folex carpet cleaner (available at walmart) + elbow Grease + shop vac. All of that for under 300 dollars.

 

We've got a Bissell Pro Heat 2x Select Pet and it does a great job. It also has a mini beater bar hand tool that is good for seats and upholstery.

Usually a 5HP+ shop vac will do. That's what I used to use but have recently upgraded to a Mytee Lite II.

 

Try this:

It's not as strong as a professional grade extractor (obviously) but for the money it works great! For the tuff stains you can use a carpet brush with APC and run over it with the LGM. Hope this helps.

 

Portland, I use Tuff Stuff that I get at my local auto parts store. It's in a tall yellow spray can. The stuff is GREAT !!!! I hope that's what you were looking for when you said extractor-carpet cleaning.

 

anywhere that rents rug doctors, get a regular rug doctor with the upostry tool and some soap with how water and you are done my friend.

If you fee like spending some casth you can spend about 3k for one from detail king. Its what I used when I use to detail.
