Carpets

An alternative to the high pressure hose is the garden variety.My (new) carpets came from a breakers and were covered in all sorts of crap like oil,dirt etc.I layed mine on a flat surface and scrubbed with plenty of carpet shampoo.Then I hung them up and hosed them off and let them drip dry overnight .Wouldn't lay them flat to dry or hang them over radiators for the risk of damaging them.If you can't wait till spring dry them somewhere indoors, cause frozen mats are a bugger to fit back into the drivers footwell!!!=Bear
