Gack removal is ongoing, this yellow oil stuff is tenacious!!!
I was going to be gentle but that wasn't cutting it so I got BRUTAL AND RUTHLESS
The yellow oil turns purple when attacked with Scrubbing Bubbles... that's kind of weird.
I used all of my gallon jug of Maestro Limpio Meadows & Rain Household Cleanser, plus most of my Scrubbing Bubbles...
The gentle approach was not working one bit.
I also got sick of the amount of oil permeated into the carpet and decided that a few cups of detergent and a trash can was the only way to fly. Barely made a dent!!
So that got agitated, soaked, agitated, soaked, dumped... then a whole bottle of Dawn Ultra dish soap and more agitation and soaking - in fact it's out there right now thinking about what it's done.
All that gack floating in the foam? This is on something like round six or round seven of cleaning.. and it's still like that. Man, I was really hoping this wouldn't be a lost cause but if the overnight Dawn soak and more agitation tomorrow doesn't do the trick I will abandon my idea of using this as a template and if Clay still wants it I guess he can have it but.. maybe he won't want it. I dunno.
Didn't really get anything else done because this all took a lot of time
