cpr_carpenter Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 A glass of milk :chairshot: (don't ask how) on the removable floor mat. I immediately hosed down with water. Let hang out in the sun, because I didn't have time at that moment to clean it. The next day I got 3M carpet aerosol spray cleaner. I foamed it down then, scrubbed with a upholstery brush, hosed it down with water again, then usetd a wetvac to get excess water out. Then hung in sun again to dry. After it dryed, I put it back. Came back acouple of hours later and it smells like a wet puppy. What do I do now?? Need something fast that can be bought locally. Help!

SW03ES Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 I usually spray the mats down with Febreze as they dry, helps keep them from being musty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

obsidianr Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 i go to large coin laundrymats and put them in their washers and take tehm home to drycleans all the dirt and sand right out ← I wash mine in my home washer and dry them in my home dryer. The edges get a little frayed, but I'd rather have that than dirty mats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steviej Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 I spray mine with Simple Green and let is soak. Then down to the coin-op laundry and use the industrial ones that you can see in the door. I find the domestic washers don't have the aggitation necessary to get them really clean. Then they go in the dryer for 10 minutes. works great and gets them very very clean. I have also resolved myself to the fact that I will be replacing them every 2 years as this process twice a year does do a job on the edges as mentioned above. steviej Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SW03ES Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 Steve- I just replaced mine with heavyweight mats from Lloyd mats. They're 4 times as thick as the OEM mats and look and feel wonderful... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKperformance Posted January 10, 2005 Share Posted January 10, 2005 I don;t want frayed ends ,besides i have one of those stupid calypso motion washers ,it can;t wash anything like that with is whirly birly top hot inside of it. Besides i prefer to break up someone elses washer ,lmao I no longer use pressure washers on my carpeted velour (oem) mats as it rips the fibres and embroidery over time and leaves tehm old real fast after a coupld of times so i stopped power washign them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
