    Well here is my review of CGs Lightning Fast stain remover/carpet cleaner. I had some dirty carpet mats to try them out on. So what I did was put the CG into my Bissell, and put the Zep Anti-Foam (which you need) into the collection tank. I sprayed down the carpet mat with the Bissell and let it sit for about 2 minutes or so, then I used the Bissell to get everything out. After that I blotted the carpet with a clean microfiber. Here are some pictures..

    Overall, amazing:headbang:.. Quick, works well, good price, and can be diluted heavily. I recommend it to anyone who is thinking of it. But keep in mind you do need some anit-foam product, and I found the Zep Anti-Foam at Home Depot for $1 on sale. Hope this helps!

    Great Results! I have a LGM coming in the mail, do you think the results are better than spraying on the lightning fast, agitating then extracting with the LGM....or put it in the solution?? Have you tried it the other way?

    I put it in the solution and it worked great but I'm sure either way will work. Congrats on the purchase!

    How dry does it leave the carpet/upholstery after extraction? I mainly ordered mine for the STUPID tan cloth ford interior! I have had hell keeping my seats clean, and they spot really bad because i cant get the cleaner out of the seats! Im really hoping i dont run into too much moisture that would cause mold!!!

    Thanks!

    Anytime!

    The carpet is actually left fairly dry. BUT be careful, when I used the carpet cleaner that came with it it left the carpets very wet.

    No sorry, but I'm sure they are all the same except for the LCGM ProHeat. You can find these at Home Depot.

    Yeah, I used some Lightning Fast with my LGCM Pro Heatfor the first time yesterday too. I didn't have anything to help with the foam though, I won't use it again until I get something. The foam is just out of control. The LF worked really well though. I had some red/orange dye in the carpet, I used Folex to get 85% of it out 2 weeks ago and it looks like the LF got it to about 95%. I only have a bit of the LF, went to CG's site to check about ordering some, but shipping is as much as a gallon of product. I guess I'll have to find something else that works well.
