carpet cleaning

[colly]

Interesting. That's the kind of Info I was looking for. It's only the boot I need to do. I did get it a lot cleaner but the smell has not gone. A kind of swamp smell.

Have you checked your socks??

It was the Morrisons one I used when I cleaned all the rugs but it hasn't been 100% succesfull, better but no cigar.

Why not just get the car valeted then?

As I found out all2well last summer,spill a carton of milk in the car,that will soon mask the smell of swampy dog

Vanish Carpet Mousse - fairly dry - i.e. doesn't soak the upholstery. About £6 a tin though

'arf, 'arf I am not a 'car valeted' personage, it costs money you know and I'm not convinced this is within their capability.

Socks indeed, I'll have you Colly!

I shall peruse that Fossy, cheaper than a valet.

This could be a smell of last resort.

I think that the main issue here is that the cause of the smell is not only on the surface but will have got into the seat padding. Most stuff mentioned, especially the dry cleaners, will only work on the surface.

Well not the seats just the boot which is a very thin bonded carpet covering, so it doesn't need to penetrate deeply, so maybe a dry cleaner would work.

I can see the advert now.

For sale, 1 car, owner needs to have no sense of smell, good runner, excellent for carrying wet dogs who've been wading in skanky swamp water.....

Dont know about the swamp water but I actually quite like the smell of wet dog

But then we all know Im strange........................

We do, oh yes, most definitely, none stranger in fact.

Oops! I misread the OP.

I still think that you'd be lucky to get anything worth getting from a dry cleaner, we use the Vanish Mousse on carpets and car interiors and it works pretty well at both removing stains and smells.

Score one for me too, but only fresh wet dog.

Our mutt gets called Bog Dog by the the Smallest in the house because of some of the swamps he finds.
