thanks for the compliments

Much better. Surprised it wasn't past it tbh 
I did think the same Ben, but I thought it was worth a shot and if it didn't turn out ok then I would just get a new carpet. it's always nicer to have the original and it was very good practice for me on those hard to shift stains.
I don't think I would have achieved the same result if I didn't jet wash it though... however good the George and however strong the chemicals are this needed a really good blasting and all the corners and nooks and crannies would have been impossible to clean in situ.
