The winner this month is Misty Collins of Collins Carpet & Upholstery Cleaning in Jenkins, KY. Misty will receive a chemical prize package worth $500.

Misty describes this particular job: "These two photos show a really nasty Ford Expedition front seat, a job that smelled as bad as it looked. There were a variety of stains, from anti-freeze, food, pop, milk, grease, rain water and an overall dusty sticky film everywhere. We used an upholstery prespray and citrus solvent, with lots of agitation and steam cleaning. Then we followed up with a protein spotter for the food spills, and a neutral spotter for the rest. Allowed dwell time, steam cleaned again, and followed up with an all-fiber rinse. We repeated the process until it looked fantastic! The customer said we were 'miracle workers.' We received five other vehicle cleaning jobs within a day, just from word-of-mouth referrals."
