Hi, everyone!
About 2 weeks ago I spilled half a bottle of Bacardi Breezer (the strawberry flavoured one if that makes any difference). Since then I kept trying to clean it with 1001 machine carpet cleaner and vanish carpet cleaner power foam. Most of the stain has gone now (quite a big one, think the size of a laptop case and with drops all around it) but you can see a light pink shade when the stain was. And now the carped is full of cleaning products, so much that when I tried to clean a drop of freshly dropped hot chocolate with a baby wipe it foamed up. I tried cleaning it with the Vax machine my mum in law lent me but I don't think it did anything (she hasn't used in a very long while and I think it needs cleaning but I don't know how to take it apart) and I can't afford paying £100 to a company to get it out. We're moving out in 3 weeks and I'm starting to freak out as I'm pretty sure the agency will try to keep our deposit for it, even though when we moved in the apartment there was a HUGE green stain on the bedroom carpet and dark red hair dye stains on the bathroom carpet.
Any help at all will be highly appreciated, thank you so much in advance! Sad

Hello,
Have you thought of hiring a Rug Doctor machine? Much cheaper than a professional cleaner and my carpets always look brand new when i clean with this?
