I use Restore foam, be careful not to let it soak in to long. I have heard stories of it releasing the adhesive on the backing of the carpet.

I use a 50% vinegar and 50% water mixture. Spray the carperts with mixture and then lightly scrub and rinse, works great.

I use cold water from the hose, a horse hair brush with light pressure for any soil ground in, and then shop vac the wet carpet.

Do not put a power washer to it. The advice given above is good...I don't know anything about using Restore though.
Good luck and take your time with some elbow grease she will look good as new.

I always spray mine out at the car wash. Just water.
