No need to add acid to Encap-HydrOx. It's already EXTREMELY acidic. It's between 3 and 4 pH in concentrate (over a thousand times more acidic than a neutral pH of 7).
If it didn't look good following the cleaning, there is likely a wicking issue. I would consider re-cleaning with heavy HWE - with a goal to flushing the deeply embedded crud from the carpet. Then following the HWE cleaning, speed dry the carpet - and possibly even perform a post-bonnet cleaning. You could use Encap-HydrOx for all these steps. Encap-HydrOx cuts through ice melt really well.
