I couldn't say either way. I use the Armor after I use the Mold Cleaner strictly in the shower/bathtub. Sorry.

I have used repeatedly but never had a prior smell so cannot answer this question. I have found it effective.

I don't know if it will work on rug and kill the smell. I've used only in my bathroom.

Hello Jennifer, this product gets rid of the smell (Really! It doesn't hide the smell, it completely gets rid of it!) and deters the pup from peeing there again. It also gets rid of cat vomit stains. I love this product! It also fades urine stains on carpets and hardwood. Be sure to dilute the solution if you are using a steam machine otherwise the parts you've spot cleaned will be cleaner looking than the rest of your rugs/carpet. It's a life saver! I can invite people over and not have to worry about the smell because there is none!! And the product itself has such a mild clean scent that doesn't overpower the atmosphere

I would imagine it would take care of the smell. I had a bath rug peed on and after throwing it into the wash with only the fizzion sprayed on the spot, it didn't smell or have any hint it was soiled.

We haven't had a problem with it smelling like mildew. We let it air dry between uses.

It took the odor out of wood cabinets with a terrible mildew smell, but it took a long time. Since leather is also porous, it might. At the very least, it might make the odor less.

KENNEL Odor Eliminator - Eliminates Odors does not mask them, Use on Cages, Runs, Tables, Walls and other large areas... back label directions say nothing about Carpet, TRY Contacting www.thornell.com they are the manufacturer. I can honestly say this is the greatest product for ELIMINATING urine smell.....

I do not know. But you could try on a small spot where no one will see. It did not change the color of my rugs, and it removed the smell!imwas truly amazed how good it works. I too had to remove all the products that I first put on. But then the smell went away! You can put your nose right into it after it drys. No pee smell. :)

I have never used it to remove mildew or sour laundry before. It works so well on pet odors and freshens trash cans, that I can imagine it would help with mildew and sour laundry. If you're battling a HE washing machine odor, clean the door gasket creases using disinfecting wipes. Sometimes mildew will set in those creases causing an odor in the machine and causing clothing to smell as well. Clorox makes a Washing Machine Cleaner for HE washers. This will help clean the rest of the drum and interior workings that come in contact with water, debris and detergent. You can still spray this Zero Odor product in to freshen, but if there's mildew growing, you'll need to eliminate that problem. There's also a more environmentally friendly way of cleaning your machine, "Lemi Shine". It uses enzymes to eliminate odors and build up inside your dish washer, washing machine and disposal. I use it regularly in all 3 of my appliances and it works well. I also feel better using it because its environmentally friendly. Lemi Shine can be found at most grocery stores and its very inexpensive, about $4 or under. You get 3 packs of enzyme powder in each box. Hope this helps!

It has a smell much like any other urathane product. I used it in my basement with zero ventilation and had no issues. It truely is a great product. 3 coats. Use wire wool in between each and leave the final coat.

Yes, use this product directly on the stain/odor first, then after the product has had time to dry and do its work, shampoo the carpet if you wish.

I don't know but that's actually my next test. I have cat urine stains that I have tried shampooing with no luck. I'm going to use the nok-out in the shampooer and give it another go. My guess is that it will remove the smell, but probably not the stain.

I've had some really bad smells from the carpet. It would take several treatments and since you need to let it air try, it might takes weeks. It will also smell during the treatments as well. But it has always worked for us so as long as the product is penetrating to the dried urine, it should eventually get rid of it. Like many others have said, patience and persistence is the key.

Its been years since I used rug doctor. I found it was a sloppy mess. I used the powder stuff they have on the floor and could not smell dust or that dirty smell after using it as directed.I hope this helps!

I haven't used it in a basement, but we had a bunch of water come in through our patio doors and saturate a carpet. The stink was unbelievable. This is the only thing that let us get near the area that I couldn't reach with the wet vac until it dried out on its own.

After every shower, I hang our mat so that the water drips off of it. I then spray it with a shower cleaner to prevent mildew from forming. My mat has no odor on it.

Unsure about your specific question, but I know it removes odors from laundry items. We have an older schnauzer who is becoming incontinent when she sleeps; mostly we keep her in a diaper, but on occasion we forget. I've washed her bedding on several occasions, my own clothes when a lap accident occurred, and a furniture pet cover or two. Without detergent, and in cold water per instructions, everything came out without any residual urine odor. Once a towel was used by our son on an accident and dropped off into a corner of his closet, where it went unnoticed until the odor became VERY apparent, even to him, lol. I was going to throw it out, but decided to experiment. After washing it in cold water, without detergent, the towel was unstained and without odor. I'm a believer. We have had our O3 Pure since Aug 2013. I do laundry 2 to 3 times a week and have had no problems with the unit. Our clothing smells fresh without any added chemicals or deodorizers, making my husband's sensitive skin itching problems nonexistent.
