I finally got tierd of my carpet looking all gray and dusty and wut not. So I decided to wash it. I pulled every bit of interior out of my car with the exception of the dash. I pulled the Dead pedal, center consul, seats f & r, and the carpet. I vacummed it really good and soaked it in water. Next I grapped a rough brisel brush and some liguid laundry soap and went to town on the thing. Afterward I rinsed all the soap off and let it air dry for about a day and a half. Most think," ll I have to do is vacumme and it'll be good." But that doesnt always work. I got deep into it and relized my carpet was jet black. I suggest this method to anyone who has time and is a stickler about a clean interior.
Plus it gets ride of the cigeratte oders. And leaves ur carpet looking and smelling fresh and new again.
