Things You'll Need:
- 1/2 cup Pine Sol
- 1/2 cup Downy, regular strength
- 1/3 cup Household Ammonia
- Hot tap water...... Depending on the size of your container, you may want to reduce the cleaners to 1/3 cup Pine-Sol and 1/3 cup Downy, and 1/4 cup of Household Ammonia
-
Step 1
Place the Pine-Sol in the container first, add some hot water slowly, then add Downy, again slowly adding more water in your steam cleaner liquid container.
-
Step 2
Fill almost to the fill line on the container, allowing room for the ammonia.
-
Step 3
Add the ammonia and put the lid on securely. Gently shake the container back and forth a couple of times, taking care not to make mixture bubble too much.
-
Step 4
Place the container back into the steam cleaner and clean the carpet as usual. For really stubborn or older spots, go over it a few times, making sure to get as much of the moisture out as possible.
-
Step 5
When finished, be sure to rinse the container until water runs clear, and place some hot water back into the tank. Run over the carpet or your tile floor a couple of times to clear the solution from the plumbing of the steam cleaner. Rinse and store your unit.
