| Naomi7835's Full Review: Woolite Oxy Deep Cleaner |
Usually in the Spring I like to shampoo my carpet and do a little painting in my house. But this past Spring I had to have surgery on my wrist, so I never did get around to shampooing my living room carpet. So I figured this Fall would be a good time to shampoo my carpet, and have it nice and clean for the Holidays.
Before I do shampoo my carpet I always like to remove any stubborn stains that I can visibly see first. My carpet is a deep blue and doesn't show many stains, but from time to time I will get a stain that will show up that is darker then my carpet.
So last month while I was taking care of my 4 grand daughters for 4 days, I did end up with 2 grape juice stains on my carpet. My 8 year old grand daughter has a habit of trying to sneak in my living room with her juice. And of course that one day that I had a Drs. appointment was the day that grandpa wasn't watching her too closely and she did manage to spill grape juice in front of one one of my chairs. She conveniently covered the stains over by placing my ottoman over the stains. It was a few days later that my grand daughter confessed to her sister what she had done. That was when my daughter in law phoned me and told me what she had done. I probably wouldn't have noticed the stains until I had to vacuum and remove the ottoman to clean under it. Even though my carpet is dark the stains did show up a deep purple which is a lot darker then the color of my carpet.
So later that day off to Target I went. I did come across this Woolite Oxy Deep Cleaner which will clean spots and stains from carpets. I did end up buying it for $3.49. I can remember several carpet cleaners that I've used over the years that I used to clean my carpet stains with and I remember that some worked and some didn't. I've used Woolite products before and was very pleased with the way they work. This Woolite Oxy Deep Cleaner is a liquid cleaning solution that comes in a spray bottle.
A FEW FEATURES OF THE WOOLITE OXY DEEP CLEANER:
Comes in a pre-mixed 22oz. spray bottle, with a easy to use spray trigger.
Has a clean fresh fragrance.
Safe for all kinds of carpets like nylon, wool and stain resistant carpets.
It's chlorine free. No harsh chemicals and is safe to use around children and pets, if used as directed.
Removes stains easily without hard scrubbing.
BEFORE CLEANING STAINS:
Before I attempted to remove the stains, I vacuumed my rug first, especially over both of the stains.
The Woolite solution should be checked in a inconspicuous place to test for colorfastness. I have the same carpet that is also on my linen closet floor that's off of my living room. This is where I checked for colorfastness. I pressed a clean white towel lightly over the sprayed area for about 30 seconds. And then checked both the towel and the carpet for any color transfer or color change. There was no color change to either the carpet or the towel.
DIRECTIONS FOR USE:
I simply sprayed the grape juice stain with the Woolite Oxy Deep Solution and allowed it to penetrate for 3 or 4 minutes. It's best not to saturate the stain, just a small amount of spray is sufficient. Then after the 4 minutes I took a damp white towel and gently worked the solution into the stain working from the edges of the stain towards the center of the stain. This way it keeps the stain from spreading further on the carpet.
Most of the grape juice did come off with the first application, but I did have to apply a second solution to the stain and blotted the same area with a fresh area of the towel. And finally the grape juice stain had disappeared from the rug onto the towel. You may have to apply the Woolite solution a few times, depending on the stain and how long it has been set into the carpet.
STAINS THE WOOLITE OXY DEEP CLEANER WILL REMOVE:
Chocolate
Ink
Red Wine
Pet messes
Colas
Food Stains
Fruit Juice
Motor Oil or Grease
Coffee/tea
Blood
If you have children, it's best if they are not allowed to play on the cleaned area until it has completely dried. Then once the area had dried I vacuumed the area again.
The Oxygen-activated solution penetrates deep below the carpet fibers to attack any tough stains and removes them permanently. Of course any stain should be treated immediately. If a stain is allowed to dry and set, it may be difficult to remove. Though most carpets today are treated with stain-resistant treatments, no carpet can be completely stain proof. And longer the stain remains in the carpet, more permanently it sets into the carpet.
Even though I had 2 grape juice stains that had set in my carpet for a few days, I consider myself lucky that the dark purple stain was removed successfully from both stains with the Woolite Oxy Deep Cleaner.
CAUTIONS:
Even though the Woolite Oxy Deep Cleaner has no harsh chemicals, is non-caustic and does not contain any chlorine it still should still be kept out of the reach of children, because it could be irritating to their eyes in case of any eye contact.
This Woolite Oxy Deep Cleaner should never be mixed with any bleach or any other household products.
Whether it's pets, kids or even visitors, your carpet catches all the dirt tracked into the house day after day. And those little stains that we all have from time to time on our carpets can sometimes be a pain in the neck to remove at times.
But with the Woolite Oxy Deep Cleaner and it's oxygen-activated stain remover, treating stains is no longer a problem in my house. It'll permanently remove the toughest of stains with just a simply spray directly to the stain. There is no pre-mixing and the spray trigger on the bottle makes it very simple and easy to use.
I also like the nice clean fragrance which leaves my carpet smelling fresh. There is no heavy harsh chemical odor like some other carpet cleaners that I've used in the past.
I do recommend the Woolite Oxy Deep Cleaner, whether it's just a small spot or a set in large stain. It can and will be removed without any hard scrubbing.
Thanks for reading!!
