what's the best way to clean carpet?

[Darren]

The carpet in my Jeep could use a good cleaning. What is the best way to go about doing this? I've already removed it from the rig.

Ive used brake cleaner before. It will immediately remove grease. But don't forget, TRY IT IN AN INCONSPICUOUS AREA FIRST. It sucks when you go to town on your interior and end up bleaching it.

I used a pressure washer and some krud kutter. Here's some pics.

a garden hose,scrub brush,shop vac, and some soap works well.

I did my EXP that way and it came out great.

 

 

I have a carpet shampooer with an upholstery attachment you could borrow

Not that you may care...but you can by a direct fit formed new carpet for $125.00. I did when I pulled mine out...I was going to clean it and then decided for all the work to get it out I would replace it.

Now is also a good time to think about adding noise and heat shielding if you care. I did it to my MJ and what a world of difference. Not saying you should as money may be an issue but....that jute pad they use is almost wortlhless for heat and noise. Even just a foil backed pad will cut the heat.

On my MJ the heat off of the tranny tunnel was hot on my right leg and annoying. I used a noise and heat barrier on the tunnel and killed that for good.

Better now that...wish I shoulda-coulda-woulda.

Sreiously you guys have no idea how good it is until you put a quality noise barrier and heat foil pad down and chuck the worthless jute OEM pad.
