spilled something on carpet
So... I spilled 32oz of dr pepper on my passenger side carpet yesterday... it got everywhere, soaked... etc
now the gorunds still wet, and sticky, i tried some simple green to get the stain out, no luck...
any advise on cleaning it? or should i just take the front carpet out?

that is so Strange!..Coincidence!..I just went to the Zeller's store a couple days ago and spied the same cleaner!!..on sale!!..and they also had the carpet cleaner...I take the two cans to the cash and find out that someone had "goofed up.."..they were supposed to be the same price but somehow the savings got turned into the Price..and I ended up grabbing all the cans of the "lower price" interior cleaner from the shelf!..LOL..I got 4 cans for $7 Canadian...talk about Score!..

Soak it with whatever cleaner you want to use. Then use a wet/dry vac or something that sucks real good(local hooker will not work in this case) to vacuum it up. Will take doing this a couple times to really clean it good. The goal is to rewet the Dr. Pepper stain then suck it out. I've had good results using a bowl of hot water, some type of liquid cleaner diluted in the water and a basic scrub brush. Dip the brush in the hot water and scrub the spot. A couple of times doing this then hit it with the vacuum. Don't be afraid of getting it to wet. You've already done that with the DP(thats Dr. Pepper not double penetration). Repeat.
Happy cleaning!
