What is the best pre-soak that will work will really dirty floor mats and fairly clean floor mats

Lightning fast stain extractor?


Also what are some of the must know things about using a hot water extractor like pre-soak other products to use with it

Thanks
 
I think you are asking for a pre-sprayer / for regular floor mats, any Degreaser of choice. Apc 4 to 1

pre-soak means given a dwelling time for a cleaning product to work. since they are not Acids that works on contact that means right away!!

that´s why you have to know your products dwelling time so it can work the best way. combining a Pre-spray like with an Inline pre-sprayer is one of the best way to do this.

Since your portable is mixing hot water into the pre-sprayer container mixing it with your cleaning product of choice.
you set it at the dillution ratio you prefer, this is the advantage, save a lot of product, you are giving a nice Boosting cleaning with the Hott water mixing, at the end is just way much better results, than just using plain top cold water in a regular spray bottle.

This is In my Opinion the Best way to Pre-Spray!!!

Remember this is just a cleaning step, once the dwelling time pass, then Hand or machine brush / Portable extraction Hott water / And sure will see a huge difference!!
 
Here is a Pict. I was doing an office carpet cleaning job that day / Really handy to have one in your stock!!
 
If your using a standard Apc's or degreaser you will most likely need to add a bottle of defoamer to your arsenal and put a little bit in your recovery tank prior to starting.
 
I just did carpets and mats in my 2003 Accord that hadn't been touched, other than vacuuming, since I bought it in 03. I used CG Fabric Cleaner diluted 1:10 in a spray bottle (hot tap water). Soaked the really dirty areas and misted the cleaner areas. Then I extracted using one of those Bissell mini carpet cleaners. I put hot tap water in the dispenser tank, so after I agitated the carpets, I was just using the extractor to rinse and suck out the dirt. Ended up with 4 gallons of sh#t brown water once finished. Couldn't believe how clean the tan carpets got. I thought some of the stains would never come out. They look nearly brand new! CG FC has a great lemon scent too!
