| Mimi369's Full Review: Turtle Wax Power Out! Carpet Cleaner And Odor Elim... |
Turtle Wax Power Out! Carpet Cleaner And Odor Eliminator helped prevent me from strangling my puppy, Clyde. That's right, wouldn't you want to toss your pooch as fast as possible if the pup plopped and pooped on the carpet and the back seat of your prized automobile?
And, yes, this story does get worse! I was driving 55 miles per hour when my dear Clyde enacted his revenge on me because I didn't stop the vet from giving him a shot only moments before the poop came down!
I had to do some pretty fast thinking to prevent the dog from stepping into the mess and tracking it all over my light grey carpeting and velour upholstery. All I could think of is Turtle Wax Power Out! take me away.
But, first, I had to pull over as fast and safely as possible to clean up as much as I could before the moisture soaked clean through my carpeting and seats! Now you know I wanted to kill that little stinker. What a horrendous mess.
The Art of Removing A Stinking Stain
When I got home and breathed in some fresh air, after holding my breath the last mile of my trip, I hustled to clean and hopefully deodorize my precious car, Betsy. I knew that my husband had a number of carpet and upholstery cleaners so to the shed I ran. I first used a carpet cleaning product by 3M but I was not happy with the now lighter brown stains on my carpeting and on my back seat.
I knew that I should have used the Turtle Wax Power Out! Carpet Cleaner And Odor Eliminator right off the bat because although the putrid smell of puppy poop was starting to leave my vehicle, those grotesquely ugly stains and a few dark dingy puppy paw prints refused to go away completely. That's when I grabbed the can of my husband's Turtle Wax Power Out! Carpet Cleaner And Odor Eliminator in the 22 ounce can.
It claimed to be formulated to deep clean, deodorize and protect carpeting in cars, trucks and boats. So armed with this bright red can, I sashayed back to my car and got to work.
My Experience
Using this product was not much different from other upholstery cleaners that I am familiar with. After shaking the can and lightly spraying the stained areas, I sat back and allowed the fresh clean smelling foam to work its magic on my car seat.
I found using this effective car care product simple and effortless to use. In fact, it is easy enough for my teenaged son to do.
After waiting ten minutes or so I noticed that the Turtle Wax Power Out! foam had become as grimy looking as the stains; practically the same color almost. Yesss! I was ecstatic and quite overjoyed to see that this inexpensive product actually worked so fast and so easily!
The Results
~Stain Removal ~ Turtle Wax Power Out! Carpet Cleaner And Odor Eliminator worked brilliantly on completely lifting and removing the poopy puppy stains from my light colored carpets and upholstery. It worked so well that the rest of the car now looked dingy in comparison! So I proceeded to clean all of my car's carpets, upholstery and carpeted floor mats.
~Carpets and Carpeted Floor Mats ~ This is the absolute best carpet cleaner that I have used on dear old Betsy. I am amazed, really, at how practically new my seven year old carpets look, especially the driver's side. Those deep ground in dirty stains were effectively lifted and removed with the foam.
The mats came out as great and I was quite pleased with the great lasting smell that Power-Out! left in my car.
~Odor Removal~ Turtle Wax Power Out! Carpet Cleaner And Odor Eliminator ..contains Odor-X, an odor encapsulating ingredient to help eliminate odors caused by cigarette smoke, pets, food and mildew... Happily, this main ingredient really does what it claims to do. As a smoker, for days after smoking in my vehicle, I could still smell the fresh light fragrance from the intense cleaning my car received.
