1st impressions of Vax carpet cleaner
 

Hi,

Just wanted to show what i did after my first use of my Vax! :)

I decided to use them on my Audi A8 beige carpets. 1st impressions are that it is very good at removing the dirt and the carpet shampoo called 'AAA' worked well.

The downside i thought was the massive head at the end of the vax so i bought the special adapter that allows you to get up close and personal with the dirt! ;)

All in all, pleased with the results!

Cheers,

-Oli

They came up great Oli - Top job. Also interested in doing this as mine are the same colour, could you tell me what this 'Vax' is and where I could obtain it?
Thanks

Hi Singh,

It's the Vax 6131...a multifunction vacuum cleaner that also allows you to wash carpets.

I got mind off eBay for £70 at the time. It's well worth the money! +++

That looks really good... We've got a few.... er dozen.... mats, if anyone wants to practise ? +++

Looks great Oli you migfht wanna try some Cheimical Guys stain extractor though just dilute 10:1 then spray on the damp carpets leave for 5-10mins then use your VAX+++
I did this with the exception of using a vac; I used the pressure washer instead!

Hey Ska, i'm still dying to try this out....come spring/summer, i will having seen your results! +++
