We shampooed our carpet and it looked terrible and so I looked up on the internet Grease stains on carpet and it mentioned hand cleaner and we tried it and it took all the grease up. So I recommend using the goop hand cleaner on grease spots on carpet.

I used baking soda mixed+ dish liquid, and water (just a little bit to make liquid) let it sit for a minute.. The stain came right out!

I'm guessing it was oil based because it felt tacky and was dark. It looked pretty good after cleaning it with our Bissel,but very soon the stain came back. I've tried other things to hand clean it, but the stain always comes back (maybe the oil attracks dirt.) After reading the various suggestions, I wonder if anyone has had experience with successful cleaning that resulted in permanent removal?

I was horrified because I knew how she would react. I was reading through some of the tips I found on the internet and the thought of putting more chemicals on the already "ruined" carpet scared me even more. I went up to her cleaning closet and found a product called "Awesome", I thought what the heck... I sprayed it on and wiped it with a damp terry cloth, it came right out!!! My savior!

I used straight ammonia on it and rubbed and it took it all off. It works great on grease stains. Be sure there is lots of ventilation.

So I called good old Mom to see what she recommended she sweared by "Lestoil" on all stains (it even took battery acid and grease out a pair of my sisters white shorts when we were growing up). So I immediately ran out and got some. I put it directly on a rag and worked each stain and it all came out. You cannot even tell that it, just like brand new again. Needless to say, he never wears workshoes home again. Good Luck.

I haven't bought it yet but will. She says you can buy it in Walgreens.

They both remove grease off hands so maybe it would work on carpet, too. Report Spam or Abuse Request: Cleaning Automotive Oil and Grease Stains Off Carpet Post by lewis_admin (1341) | (09/08/2006) Profile | Blog! | Contact My DH manages a chain of automotive repair and tire sales shops. Sometimes I help out by cleaning the shop so he can get home to the family a little earlier. I am baffled as to how to remove stains from the carpet in the customer lounge. It must be automotive grease or oil. I've used my home Bissel Giant Green Steam Clean Machine with the manufacturer's reccomended cleaning products. I am getting a lot of soil out of the carpet (I presume, b/c the color of the "dump" water is similar to black coffee); yet the stain remains. Any suggestions as to what to try? Thank you. Debbie Answers: RE: Cleaning Automotive Oil and Grease Stains Off Carpet I made the mistake in bringing my bicycle inside to oil the chain and grease the gears. I put newspaper under the bike thinking i was safe but as soon as i took the pedals to spin the chain the oil went everywhere nice black oil spots on my living room carpet... broke out the carpet cleaner with little results. So I then got out the dish soap and squirted it on the spots and gave a gentle rub. I let the soap sit on there for a little while and then took the carpet cleaner to the spots again and they disappeared.

Perhaps that would work for oil or grease. (06/03/2005) By grammy24 RE: Cleaning Automotive Oil and Grease Stains Off Carpet I found a carpet/upholstery cleaner at a auto dealership, but it's no doubt other places too, called Capture. I keep one at all times. It's a dry powder, sprinkle it on the oily spot, let sit a bit and vac up. It works great. (06/03/2005) By Wendee Report Spam or Abuse
