Automotive Carpet Extractor

A professional auto detailer’s toolkit includes many items to clean the interior of a car, but one of the most important is an automotive carpet extractor. These high-powered machines remove dirt, chemicals, stains, oils, and other contaminants from the surface of carpets, seats, and other fabric upholstery. They also help the surface dry faster than a manual shampoo and vacuum method.

The best automotive carpet extractors use powerful, rotating brushes to scrub and break down stains, and some have attachments that allow for precision cleaning in the nooks and crannies of cars. They may be used in conjunction with other products such as cleaning chemicals that break down stains and help them dissolve or deodorizers that eliminate odors.

An automotive carpet extractor with a clear vacuum nozzle allows the operator to see what color the extracted water is and know how much more work needs to be done, or if the surface is already clean. This is important since some stains can fool even the most experienced eye.

Another important feature is a variable psi setting, which determines how much pressure the machine applies to the surface. This can be changed from low to high depending on the type of surface and stains being cleaned, as well as how heavily soiled the surface is.
