Last fall before I put the Tuffy away I did not clean out the interior as good as I should have and there were some wet leaves on the floor in the back. There is now some brown staining from the dead leaves. What would be the best product to use for this organic staining? I really don't want to pressure wash it as I don't want to damage the carpet. I usually clean the carpet with dish soap and a brush and then hose it out. Thanks for any advice you can offer.

I bought some stuff at Menards that worked awsome.. You mist some spray on the carpet, sprinkle some powder and gently rub in powder, let sit for 30 minutes, sweep and the carpet is clean.. Sorry that I can not remember the name..

Go to an auto parts store and get some SD-20 degreaser. I used it on tough spots all the time when I did detail. Use a brush to get it in good. I always followed that up with a shampooer. (superwash has them)

MuskieMedic, try your regular laundry detergent (Tide, All, ect.) and a scrub brush. My wife's cat has a hairball puking isssue and I have tried a lot of cleaners on carpet, and the most effective method has been regular laundry detergent.
