Apparently so. I've been trying to find a better (and cheaper) cleaning solution for my new Bissell carpet cleaner, and water and vinegar comes up time and time again. The wetting of the carpet will allow the shampoo to dissolve again, and blotting out, or drawing out with the carpet cleaner should remove any shampoo in there. I suppose how quickly and completely depends on how much is in there. If the shampoo was alkaline based, then the vinegar will help draw it out (as vinegar is an acid). If not, then I guess it will take a bit longer to effectively rinse it out. I'm going to try this on the car seats, as the "valet" the last owner had done has left lots of shampoo in. More shampoo does not equal cleaner!
