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 The carpets before cleaning:  Having finished 1 carpet:  Half of the 2nd carpet:  The dirt from the vax from only 1 of the two carpets:  The two clean carpets side by side:  Before  After:  and what was left in the bucket afterwards:

Hi Singh,

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!
