Cleaning Interior



Get some kind of all-purpose cleaner or some upholstery cleaner if you
prefer. Rent a steam cleaner (best) or a small shampoo machine (good) or you
can use a wet/dry vac and a stiff brush (ok) and go to town on the carpet
and seats.

To take care of odors, turn on your heater and/or ac and spray a fumigation
spray into the outside vents below the windshield so it gets sucked inside
the car...put your hvac control to the dash/floor combo so it gets all
around...make sure the blower fan is on.

Cleaners and fumigators can be found at your auto or detail store...the
stuff you can find at *-mart works too. Fumigators come in a variety of
flavors. I mostly use Meguiars products at work and they do very nicely.

Subject: OT: Cleaning Interior


I guess this could apply to our cars but it has to do with my Rabbit.  Its
been sitting for a while waiting for a few parts before its ready to become
my daily driver.  Moisture got inside and now the interior is almost solid
white from the thick blanket of mold that grew.  (darn rainy northwest)
Luckily I'm putting in new seats so I'm not worried about cleaning those but
other than wiping everything down and cleaning with bleach water what would
you recommend to clean it up.  The bleach water will kill the mold but what
about for the carpets, is there in fumigation thing I can use to kill
everything thats gotten into the cracks and vents????
