Does the product take the color out of the carpet

Not on any carpet that I have used it on! This has been a great product for me for the past 2 years so I buy it by the case now. It has taken out every stain I have come across (organic)... Haven't tried it on paint, oil or tar but wine, grass, grease, etc. comes out easily. I pay up excess spill, spray, let sit one minute, then pat and gently rub. Hope this helps :-)

It has never altered the color of any of our carpets. If in doubt, test in a corner of your closet. I've used it for several years without a problem but found it benefitted from a good "rinse" with water to the area if heavy use left a residue. I have a small Green Machine I use with only water sometimes.

I've used this for a long time, even leaving on the carpet at times, and it has never damaged it or affected the carpet color.

No it does not. It only attacks organic stains not dyes. As always, test on an inconspicuous spot first!!

No. In my experience, when I first use it, it looks like it discolored the carpet. However, the color of my carpet is normal after a while.

I haven't tried to spot clean my carpet with this unit yet but I'm sure it would work. Carpets are steam cleaned all the time. If you're unsure if your carpet is color fast I'd first try it in an inconspicuous spot. This has got to be one of the very best products I've ever purchased.

no it didn't, but the floor matt did not hold its color for more than a couple of weeks. it is really over priced.

I have a cream leather sofa and it did not change the color, no matter how much I scrubbed. It did however, remove a lot of dirt that had accumulated over the years.

I use it over the whole carpet because I want to make sure that there is no difference in the way any part of the carpet may look compared to another. Also, this product deodorizes the entire carpet. I am very pleased with the results.

I don't have carpets but looked this up online. People have used it in carpet cleaners. Make sure carpet is colorfast.

I found that it really doesn't remove stains. I use it about once a month to keep the carpet looking and smelling fresh.

No - we have had it for a while and the color has not rubbed off on our carpet.

My carpet is extremely dark and I put this multiple times all over it and it absolutely did not bleach it. I've never heard of that. It did get rid of all the flees beautifully!

It does take off the stain but not after one use. It takes several uses for it to come off but does work and smells good as well.

Yes, my daughter accidentally dropped a while plate of spaghetti on my white carpet and it was the only thing that took the stain out. We also dilute some and put it in our carpet cleaner and it took out old stains that we thought were there for good. I love this product and use it all the time. Amy

Yes, it does detect some unknowen stains which are not removed when treated with the enzyme solution. I am curious to see if they will remain after the carpet is cleaned.

It won't. Bleach on a carpet doesn't stain it, but rather it changes the chemical make up of material and whitens it. The only way to remedy a bleach spill is to replace that section of carpet. There may be carpet dyes available, but I am not aware of any.

Yes it does if you pretreat the area. They have a spray bottle with pet stain pretreat. Also use the carpet shampoo called pet stain and odor. Both products are sold by Bissell.

I'll call it beige. It darkens as it drys. Not a common wood color. In my experience, it didn't pick up the color of the stain. I was using an oil based stain. In the end, it's not that noticeable as the floor I was refinishing has a lot of, um, character, so these imperfections don't really jump out. I was hoping that since I didn't buy a color matched product it would at least have taken some of the color of the stain.

No. This is a four-step process. (1) spray the stain with Capture's liquid, (2) sprinkle the Capture powder on the stain/sprayed area, (3) use a scrub brush and work the powder into the stain, (4) wait for this process to dry around 12 hours (?), and then vacuum the powder up. The stain is GONE! Only problem would be a red wine spill which may need a professional to get out of your rug.

I've only used it on a "regular" carpet and a Berber carpet. In addition to new stains its gotten out old stains in both. Hope that helps.
