My gr nephew recently got candle wax all over my living room carpeting. I tried getting it up by ususal methods Hot iron and paper towels. ice ect. Today before steam cleaning my kitchen floor I decided to use my steemer on the carpeting to see what would happen, much to my surprice with very little effort I covered the regular mop head with a piece of thin terrycloth and went to work. ALL I mean All of the wax residue came up with very little effort. As well as a few spots that were on the carpeting. I am so happy as I am handicapped physically and cannot do ant stranious work

Sassey another helpful hint I have learned this summer is Dow Scrubbing Bubbles will take most stains out of carpeting just spray it on and let soak in and genly scrub it and let dry then vaccuum

I got the Shark this summer too and I just love it. Works great on laminated floors.

What a great idea. I never would have thought of that. Good thinking.
