It's an autoshop so, must've been years, if not decades, of oil. The fact the rug is still able to be cleaned and not be totally disintegrated is more impressive to me
problem is, even by the end, that's still not the finished product. It cuts off abruptly after a pressure wash and dirt was still coming from the rug, so it still leaves a feeling of incompleteness. That rug still could have used a few more passes and then gotten a couple spins in the centrifuge.
It's oil and grease more than dirt. Based on the other video with oil soaked into the rug it seems like it is a very difficult substance to clean from fabric without an insane amount of work and specialised substances for the job (gasoline/petrol).
This man is the MVP of cleaning! This is what it looks like when someone owns a business and they love their craft. This rug WILL NOT defeat him LOL. I love it.
This is extremely impressive! I knew exactly what was happening when he showed me the car garage and had first-hand knowledge of what that rug felt, smelled, and looked like. I’m impressed he didn’t find embedded coins, screws, nuts, etc.. My dad was a trucker and a master mechanic. They always had these smaller rugs around the garage. One is under the truck to keep the oil from staining and building up in the bay, and then others are at the work bench. Another is at the door to the office, etc. My Dad would look at a house rug and ask my grandmother if he could have it for the garage. He was the only one I did not get in trouble with if I spilled a soda or juice on a rug. Grandmother would roll her eyes and tell me to carry it to the garage. She always knew why he needed it. She got to where she would buy old rugs for the garage at yard sales. During the video, I kept thinking, “Go get the Lava bar of soap,” because that is the only thing that would clean my Dad’s hand and, later, mine when I learned to work on cars. But I know that such rough soap would have damaged the rug. When he got to the gasoline the first time, I thought he had had enough and was just going to light it up. Grandmother died twenty-one years ago, but she would have loved this video!
I applaud both the tenacity of this cleaning service to finally restore this rug to its glory as well as the quality of this rug and those that wove and dyed it originally. This is one tough rug that should go into the hall of fame for being the highest quality and craftsmanship of a rug and the dirtiest ! VERY IMPRESSIVE !!!!
This was totally amazeballs how clean he got it. Looked like someone rebuilt an engine on it. I mean it took gasoline to cut the crud. All I can say is that rug must've had hella sentimental value to it for somebody. I really would've loved to have seen it completely finished and a side by side comparison of before and after.
@@bettycolbourne5780 he probably didnt ask for a penny, i suspect the guy walks around looking for jobs to film for you tube, its kind of hard to fake something like this
I basically understand what you're saying Rita Mills because I said the same thing unless it had great sentimental value or religious significance to it I would have thrown that crusty rug out!!
Wow! If it wasn’t for the fact that the son wanted to keep this rug as a reminder of his Dad’s business, I would have just tossed it. Amazing as usual!
My son is a diesel mechanic and whenever I need to wash his clothes or whatever I need to clean my carpet My secret is a little bit of Dawn dish soap the original Dawn dish soap and it does wonders that's why I love watching you clean carpets you have the patience and all of those cleaning equipment and know-how again I appreciate all of your hard work if nobody's told you that you've done a fantastic job and let me be the first to say you do a fantastic job please don't ever stop until it is your time to retire thank you so much and from the bottom of my heart I love what you do
For grease stains, caustic soda is excellent. It does miracles! I often use caustic soda because it also leaves fabrics soft and velvety (caustic soda is used in the mercerization process of cotton threads)
If I may suggest. On a carpet oil stained with ancient grease, grime, etc, as around an auto repair shop, soak the item with automatic transmission fluid. Preferably Dexxron III if still available. Allow the item to set for a few days. Keep saturated, Will do no harm to the woolen fabric. Then use traditional methods to continue cleaning. That fluid has a high surficant detergent in in. Works on stained driveways also.
This the best carpet cleaning video I have watched. I truly thought that this carpet could not be cleaned. But, he didn't give up. Great watch thank so much.
I was beginning to think this little rug was black. But with determination and gasoline, we saw its true colors . With all the work you put into this, you should put it up on the wall.❤
This guy is the BEST! While others go right to the water soaking, he gets rid of caked-on dirt first, before the water! If you can use his services, do it!
Wow, just wow. You put so much work, patience and sweat into this one. And youre right, this is BY FAR the dirtiest rug I've ever seen. You deserve an award for this ❤
I’ve worked in Trade areas in TAFE and had my own carpet cleaning business. One of the tricks is a kero bath day one and a strong very hot degreaser treatment the next. An old bathtub will do fine. Turn mat facing downwards in bath. Drain tub until grease and filth lift away. Leave to soak again, repeating as above. Use a very stiff nylon brush on an outdoor driveway/path area. Pressure wash from backing first then turn over and do the top. Kerosene will lift grease out of ‘cut and loop’ pile as well. Most of the oil should be dissolved, freshen will bi-carb of Soda and Lavender carpet freshener after carpet has been squeezed out and dried over a wire fence. This will cut down time and water. Beat the Rug and use wet and dry industrial vacuum suction cleaning machine until it is cleaned and spray with apple fabric softener. This should take away all the chemical smells. Voila ... clean 🥂
If this is not the best form of self promotion I’ve ever seen in my life idk what is…. The dedication the patience the time put into cleaning this rug is freaking amazzzzzzing. If I needed my carpets cleaned I would definitely be looking to hire him because I know the job is going to get done.
After this rug, I don’t think there’s ever gonna be a challenge too big for you to handle. This was an exceptional job. You are sure good at your job.!❤❤❤
If it has been hand woven that is a lot of work, time and expertise to create it. This is why hand woven is so expensive so, I can appreciate saving it! Amazing how filthy it was!
Just incredible and SO hypnotic! Proving how amazing his service can be - and how much dirt can stick to a rug - no-one could imagine this. Just missing the last shot of returning it to its place in the garage.
Okay wow, that is basically magic! I never would have thought you could get rid of all the dirt without just bleaching the whole thing entirely of color. That is incredibly impressive, amazing job!
I’m finding this channel incredibly satisfying. Kind of like life…sometimes, especially after making mistakes, it takes attention to detail, perspective and lots of work requiring time to decide it’s time for change, and work on the issues a bit at a time. Bit by bit, wash by wash, cleansing rinses of our old ways, patience, persistence, and belief in the power of ourselves . . . For me, this is a microcosm of the hope and possibility of beauty emerging slowly when we had thought it hopeless. Just sayin’.
There is none. He doesnt know wat hes doing aside from traditional carpet cleaning methods. He resorted to using gasoline as a solvent but is running out of patience and money, and ruined most of his own cleaning equipment
@@ordinaryk was going to say this if you hadn't. Once got tar in a new pair of shoes and remembered building forts as a kid to seal the roof with tar we used gasoline to clean off our hands and so I used it on my shoes too.
Who would have thought that was a colorful carpet underneath all the oil and dirt 😮. GREAT JOB on cleaning 🧼 and on the patience 👍 I would have thrown it away and got a new one 😂
You should weigh the carpet before and after cleaning, to mesure the amount of dirt you have removed. I am profoundly amazed that you actually succeeded in finding a vibrant coloured carpet under all that dirt. Wow..
From the looks of the tattered rug, it made it into the garage because it was a throw away. However, the cleaning process and your tenacity to do the job, speaks volumes for your work ethic. When the gasoline came out, I thought don't light a match anywhere near......however burning it might have been my go to in the beginning. Fantastic job.
Professional rug cleaning costs $2 to $7 per square foot on average, depending on the size, quality, material, and method. A standard 8'x10' area rug costs $150 to $600 to clean. Extra rug washing treatments such as odor or stain removal add $10 to $50 to the total cost.Aug 2023
Why... Still watching while skimming comments, seems it's sentimental. I went from thinking this was really a waste... To thinking there's no limit to restoring it for sentimental reasons. ❤😊❤ Nice work.
That was absolutely stunning. I can’t believe that pretty rug was underneath all of that mud. I’ll bet the son is very thankful that he spent the money to have it cleaned and now he can have a wonderful Souvenir to remind him of his dad🧡🧡🧡
🤩😲 AMAZING!!!!!! I would've NEVER guessed that's what it looked like under all that grime! What an incredible job you've done!!! I bet most people would've thought that rug entirely beyond saving, but you did it!
Wow what a tough job! Well done! I could see how much work you put into it. Thanks for doing so much to help this rug. I do miss the before and after pictures though
Wow you did a fab job and just kept going 😊 I do have a tip it may help in he future when I helped my mum clean carpets years ago to remove grease she used fairy the others don’t work as well we tested loads lol and I still use this today 40 yeas later with the new platinum and others chuck it on give it a rub and leave for a few hours it brakes down the grease a treat oh I lived in a home with three mechanics and a wheelchair user so you can imagine the high traffic area😮 drove us nut till we found this tick, well done and keep going I’m hooked on your channel lol 🎉❤
That was terrible!! Bet you were tempted to light a match after soaking it in petrol (gasoline)!!!! You did a grand job of getting it as clean as it was going to be after you'd finished with it. Perseverance always wins at the end of the day!!! Well done!!!!!!!!!
I saw many rugs like this growing up with my dad working as a mechanic. It takes a lot of work to get a rug this bad. They usually just threw them away. I would've soaked it for days in the strongest degreaser I could find. Kudos to you for such tenacity to get it clean!😃
I'm somewhat amazed at how effective the gasoline was when everything else failed, so I guess it's a case of fighting oil with oil... I just hope the son appreciates the amount of work you had to put into getting that as clean as you did.
Halfway through and the pattern and colour finally appears. Who would have thought it looked like that? Wow the patience. Why did the owner let it go so far?
Outstanding results I'm blown away by what I've witnessed after seeing the outcome with this project i have hopes with the carpet shampooing I'm about to tackle 🤪🤑😫absolutely amazing outcome keep it up brother you're definitely a professional carpet on carpet cleaning 👍👌✊💪💯
Not something you would want in your home, but you learned a lot about solvents and detergents and how much damage they can do to the carpet. Good to know if you get a family heirloom that someone wants to save and you can decide if it can be salvaged or not.
Uffff.... Ya tiene que ser esta alfombra un muy preciado tesoro para su dueño porque, no tiene tamaño para todo el tiempo, empeño y ganas que ha invertido este profesional de la limpieza y salvamento de alfombras en dejarla como nueva. ¡¡¡¡ Felicidades por el amor y pasión que pones en cada pieza que los clientes te confían !!!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏
You are right! This one is unique!!! I’m glad you shared the back story. Can’t say I wouldn’t have had the passing thought of lighting a match at certain times.🤔 But I understand the sentiment and I would have loved the challenge!
Ha ha...this was so funny... the wheel kept falling off the machine and him kicking it out of the way made me laugh... and costing about £10 in gasoline too! but he got there in the end. A most enjoyable video. 😂
💪💪.. Bravo on your perseverant tenacity!!! 👏👏👏 I like a person who doesn't believe in giving up in the face adversity!!! This finally encouraged me to subscribe!!! 🎊🎉
I love the story of the rug and the sentimental value. Your dedication to cleaning this absolute mess of a rug, all for the sake of someone else's happiness, is a true testimate to your work. Absolutely amazing!❤🥰
This is a reminder never let life bet you down! Keep working at the deep darkest times in life too reveal the beauty that was once underneath the surface ❤
When I showed this to my friend, also a carpet/rug cleaner, he said "that's one expensive rug - it would have been in pieces by now, if it weren't" and he stayed all the way thru just to see what came out in the design. He was surprised; I was shocked. Okay! Yes, it was a Persian Rug, and it was many years old. Imagine this man's tenacity to accomplish this and still not cause damage to it - Persian Rugs are wool, goat, Llama amongst other animal's fibers within it. Perhaps he was told that, or assumed it once beginning. I don't know if he got to keep this rug or if he gave it to the Owner again. Either way - that's one heck of a job and well worth the money it cost, depending on what he charged to do this.
I love that you will often show HOW a carpet got dirty, and not just head right into the cleaning. I've been in the garage of auto shops, and they may look clean, but that's just enough cleanliness that the mechanics don't slip in oil or on metal shavings, and the car tires aren't punctured. If someone were to take a power washer to the floor of a car bay, I'm sure there would be just as much dirt and oil, if not more, making its own carpet on the concrete.
I cant believe I watched the whole process and was virtually having panic attacks by the end 😂😅. I would not have had the patience to carry on..Well done for not giving up ! I hope the finished rug is worth all your efforts. It must be an extraordinarily expensive rug to go to those lengths to save it. Now Id say its worth a million bucks at least! 🎉
@lainey3809 It has sentimental value. The man who owned the repair shop died, and his son wanted the rug cleaned as a keepsake. It had been in the shop for 15 years. (It's also good publicity for the cleaning company, because if they can clean THAT rug, they can clean ANY rug! 😀 )
I feel like im watching a dawn commercial and im hoping the duck makes it 😂 i think this rug would make a good carpet bag for marry poppins. It would have a desert at the bottom. It just keeps on giving ❤
That was a tough cleaning job! Thank you for showing us it CAN be done, rugs should just not be automatically thrown out if they are dirty, they can be cleaned and we can help our environment by not putting things like this in the landfills! ❤
That is truly the dirtest rug i have ever seen. You approached this as ifbto say i will not be defeated by this rug! Good job, lots and lots of hard work.

I don't know what's more impressive - the ungodly amount of dirt in that rug, or the tenacity you displayed in cleaning it. Amazing effort!
It's an autoshop so, must've been years, if not decades, of oil. The fact the rug is still able to be cleaned and not be totally disintegrated is more impressive to me
Maximum effort definally

This one is the WINNER of all rug-cleaning videos. Such a shame there's no before-and-after, but even so, this one. This the one.

This video was EPIC.. it was the most exciting one I've ever seen.. was waiting to see the rug's color so patiently.. 🤩💯😎💪🏼
I loveeeee the most dirtiest ones 😊
@@Lynzeyj yup me too 😍
I love your patience and confidence that you’ll get the job done. Excellent work!
Halfway through and the pattern and colour finally appears. Who would have thought it looked like that? Wow the patience. Why did the owner let it go so far?
Could have been in a flooded house that they couldn’t get to until the water receded. If vacay house….could have sat for months like that. 🤷🏼♂️
Gasoline was the only thing that worked! Crazy!
Outstanding results I'm blown away by what I've witnessed after seeing the outcome with this project i have hopes with the carpet shampooing I'm about to tackle 🤪🤑😫absolutely amazing outcome keep it up brother you're definitely a professional carpet on carpet cleaning 👍👌✊💪💯
Целых 40 минут чистки! Вот это подарок😂❤ Жду 2-ю часть!🙏
Каких 40 м 3/5часа это делал 🤣🤣🤣
Похоже задолбался.😅 выкинул нафиг.😅
Not something you would want in your home, but you learned a lot about solvents and detergents and how much damage they can do to the carpet. Good to know if you get a family heirloom that someone wants to save and you can decide if it can be salvaged or not.
Uffff....
Ya tiene que ser esta alfombra un muy preciado tesoro para su dueño porque, no tiene tamaño para todo el tiempo, empeño y ganas que ha invertido este profesional de la limpieza y salvamento de alfombras en dejarla como nueva.
¡¡¡¡ Felicidades por el amor y pasión que pones en cada pieza que los clientes te confían !!!!
👏👏👏👏👏👏
I agree who would be bothered with all that washing time just buy a new one
@@JoannaFerris-j9m i can imagine it is a family owned shop thats been passed down generations, if so, the memorabilia would be worth the cleaning
Read the description
You are right! This one is unique!!! I’m glad you shared the back story. Can’t say I wouldn’t have had the passing thought of lighting a match at certain times.🤔 But I understand the sentiment and I would have loved the challenge!
Ha ha...this was so funny... the wheel kept falling off the machine and him kicking it out of the way made me laugh... and costing about £10 in gasoline too! but he got there in the end. A most enjoyable video. 😂
It's a good illustration of what can be done. Something we throw out things before trying to clean it if we can.
It's amazing the amount of dirt hidden in such a small rug 😱
I am sure it lost at least half of its weight
Verdad
💪💪..
Bravo on your perseverant tenacity!!! 👏👏👏
I like a person who doesn't believe in giving up in the face adversity!!!
This finally encouraged me to subscribe!!! 🎊🎉
Великолепная работа! На ковре даже белый цвет есть!❤
I love the story of the rug and the sentimental value. Your dedication to cleaning this absolute mess of a rug, all for the sake of someone else's happiness, is a true testimate to your work. Absolutely amazing!❤🥰
This is a reminder never let life bet you down! Keep working at the deep darkest times in life too reveal the beauty that was once underneath the surface ❤
It was so bad i just skipped to the end to see the results, great job!
Are you going to continue to clean it in a second video?
Amazing job, respect!! Your persistence did pay off to show the true colours of it!
You did a great job.. You are number one in the carpet challenge🎉🎉🎉
I can’t believe how clean it came out and the colors. It had me going with all the unbelievable dirt. The hard work really paid off.
Esse trabalhador é guerreiro se fosse eu ja tinha desistido 😅mas parabéns mais uma vez pelo trabalho de você 👏👏👏👏🎉
Motor oil is hard to get out of any fabric but it's nothing compared to transmission fluid. That's a gift that just keeps on giving.
WOW what a clean up...awesome job! loved this video!
The most satisfying rug cleaning video on the internet. Period. There is hope for us all. ❤❤💞
Esse tapete é a analogia perfeita do que Jesus fez na minha vida ❤
Amen 🙏
You go girl, praising him at any opportunity! He is worthy! ❤
This was such a challenge and he never gave up. 🎉. He won 🏆. Great conquest,😊❤
Спасибо за видео и предысторию коврика 😊работа выполнена на все 100❤😊
When I showed this to my friend, also a carpet/rug cleaner, he said "that's one expensive rug - it would have been in pieces by now, if it weren't" and he stayed all the way thru just to see what came out in the design. He was surprised; I was shocked.
Okay! Yes, it was a Persian Rug, and it was many years old. Imagine this man's tenacity to accomplish this and still not cause damage to it - Persian Rugs are wool, goat, Llama amongst other animal's fibers within it. Perhaps he was told that, or assumed it once beginning. I don't know if he got to keep this rug or if he gave it to the Owner again. Either way - that's one heck of a job and well worth the money it cost, depending on what he charged to do this.
Please, where did you complete the video .. Part Two
I love that you will often show HOW a carpet got dirty, and not just head right into the cleaning. I've been in the garage of auto shops, and they may look clean, but that's just enough cleanliness that the mechanics don't slip in oil or on metal shavings, and the car tires aren't punctured. If someone were to take a power washer to the floor of a car bay, I'm sure there would be just as much dirt and oil, if not more, making its own carpet on the concrete.
Переживала за Вас и это пятно справа, больше чем за свои отношения!🥹
P. S. Крайне бесила всю
дорогу эта сраная складка на ковре.
Wow the water is rinsing away less and less dirty ♥️😊
I cant believe I watched the whole process and was virtually having panic attacks by the end 😂😅. I would not have had the patience to carry on..Well done for not giving up ! I hope the finished rug is worth all your efforts. It must be an extraordinarily expensive rug to go to those lengths to save it. Now Id say its worth a million bucks at least! 🎉
Expensive? 😂 It was used in a car repair shop!
@@MagentaMoonshadow Then why are they going to extreme lengths to clean it ? Just for click and views ??
@@lainey3809 thats the point
@@curtis_newton_74 OK 👍 now it makes sense
@lainey3809 It has sentimental value. The man who owned the repair shop died, and his son wanted the rug cleaned as a keepsake. It had been in the shop for 15 years. (It's also good publicity for the cleaning company, because if they can clean THAT rug, they can clean ANY rug! 😀 )
I feel like im watching a dawn commercial and im hoping the duck makes it 😂 i think this rug would make a good carpet bag for marry poppins. It would have a desert at the bottom. It just keeps on giving ❤
MARAVILHOSO..👏👏👏👏👏 você conseguiu transformar um lixo em um tapete. Parabéns parabéns mil vezes parabéns.....
Unbelievable! You worked so diligently you did a remarkable job...my question is (was this an experiment to see if the rug could come clean)?✌🏿👌🏿✊🏿
That was a tough cleaning job! Thank you for showing us it CAN be done, rugs should just not be automatically thrown out if they are dirty, they can be cleaned and we can help our environment by not putting things like this in the landfills! ❤
I guess all the chemicals used to clean this rug was “better for the environment “ than it just being burned and done with
For real this video made me so frustrated that it took so long and so many attempts and so much product to get it clean but WOW!!!! Holy moly!!!
I loved when you picked up the carpet and it looked like there was another carpet underneath
That is truly the dirtest rug i have ever seen. You approached this as ifbto say i will not be defeated by this rug! Good job, lots and lots of hard work.
That lil wheel, said, "Nope, I'm out of the rug game"😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂after this rug😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤❤❤
