That's  what I was worried about  as Its rather dirty it's going  to need a good scrub. Think I might walk away from this one

You can always use a pile brush rather than mechanical. What solutions  and agitation you using?

Longer dwell time if you can't scrub it to  death,   but I would give it the good scrub it needs.

  never walk away from a job ,  you can always do something to make it cleaner......if not totally clean
