My Favorite Stain Lifter - Spot Shot

Have used this for years - excellent for pets and carpet. This stuff often gets up stains where nothing else works. It didn't completely clean the carpet in the cab - there are still some stains, but it really freshened it up until some day in the future when I might pull it out and paint.
