I have some spots from a gardener who tracked in manure on the bottom of his shoes and tracked about 20 “footprints” onto a customers carpet.
I’ve cleaned them three times already and they have now come back a fourth time.
I first sprayed fast acting enzyme on them, gave it 15 minutes to dwell then spayed #101 and cleaned with the dirt napper, then woven turf, then thin pad. Each time it looks good when I finish but have been called back.
The second time I used the upholstery mate to extract using dry solvent and TGP and a scrub brush. Used #101, dirt napper, the new purple pad then the thin pad.
Third trip I repeated my first step.
Suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

I think manure has protein . . . blood remover may work. However, if the spots look good after extraction, I would take a hair dryer and dry them before I leave. This eliminates any possible wicking and you’ll know where you’re at before your leave.
Thanks for the quick response!
I try it this time.

Dry out as much as possible, putting protector on afterwords also helps with wicking problems. It creates a barrier, greatly slowing the wicking process. This also may need to be done more than once. Along with Bryans suggestions, plus using protector has saved my bacon many, many, many times through the years.
