Rick,
I work in an industrial environment. I come home with grease, hydraulic oils, ground in cast iron, etc., etc. I don't even send my work clothes out. Just use Simple Green in the washer in a strong concentration. (usually three cups) It doesn't even leave a ring or film in the washer and is friendly to the environment. Try it before you try anything that could bleach out the color of your carpet. I'd try a
50-50 dilution, let it sit for a couple of minutes, then absorb as much as possible, and rinse well. It might take a couple of tries, but it should clean it up. I've used it for grease in the carpet, (from my shoes) and it totally removed it. You may want to clean the whole carpet afterwords, because it does clean. ( I am in no way associated with the company, just use their product) Try it before you get extreme. Good luck,
Chris R.

My exam chair died and in doing so let the hydralic fluid out of it. I now have that in the carpet. I wiped up all I could but it ran fasteer than I could swab it.
What is good to remove the hydralic fluid from the carpet and still leave the carpet?
Thanks for yhour help.
Rick
