Homemade Steam Cleaner Solution
Homemade Solution #1: Steam Carpet Cleaner
I think there is a little Scotsman in us all so if we can save something when doing a fairly regular task, why not? We have all seen the prices of Commercial carpet cleaner and rug shampoo products and know the costs. Of course buying generic brands can save a little but never as good as home made steam cleaner solution as you will most likely have all the ingredients at hand.
No matter which home made steam cleaner solution you use your carpet must be left smelling fresh. This first method uses White distilled vinegar, which is a common, natural odor neutralizer and odor absorber. Another great property is it also disinfects while cutting through tough dirt and detergent residues. This is an added advantage as it also removes traces left by previous cleanings. Luckily vinegar smells not too obnoxious and will disipate quickly when the carpet dries.
Method:
To create your home made steam cleaner solution start with a solution of 2 gallons of water and one and a half cups of white distilled vinegar. Mix this topether and add to your steam cleaner to it's fill line. Now just go ahead and steam clean your carpet with your newly made steam cleaner solutiona just as you would normally.
Allow to dry and sit back and be in awe by how much grim and dirt your home made steam cleaner solution will get out of your carpet, all without the sometimes toxic detergents and chemicals found in some commercial carpet cleaners.
