No, i've not developed a stutter. :D
Having just sorted a leak from the sunroof in 'ol blue (my diesel Ford Focus), I now need to dry out the floorpan and carpets. It seems it was leaking for a while, and the carpet is a bit... funky.
I might just go to the scrappies and get a replacement, but i'm considering taking the whole carpet out and cleaning it. Any ideas for products or techniques that may be useful?
Is the carpet small enough to fold up and put in the washer? If not, then it's a bit time consuming...lie it out flat, vacuum it, spray on foam cleaner, then work it in with a stiff brush. Rinse and repeat til you're happy with it.
just burn it... ;D
Buy a second hand one.. plenty of rusty old fords out thier to pick from. ;D

Do you mean the car or the carpet? ;D
Took about 2 summers to fully de-funk my old cars carpet after a leak, and that was despite being able to get it out to dry! I'd be looking for another carpet I think! That said, it was only that hard as it would have fallen apart if i'd washed it in a machine, if you can do that I'm sure it'll be fine.
Lets have a club bbq.. lets use the focus as the bbq .. will soon dry out.
Only if you like that authentic charplastic-grilled flavour!
Anyway, the car's not that bad... although I have been known to use a "Police Aware" sign to get free parking. :D
i'm a ford owner for my sins.. :-[ But not for long.

I beg to differ:
