Have the front carpets out of my 94 Jag XJS right now. Took them out because the A/C drains stopped up and got a bit of water on them (not too much). Going to take care of a couple of minor surface rust spots in the floorboards. I want the carpets to be as fresh as possible when they go back in. What would you guys recommend to clean them. I do have a li'l green machine but that's about it (besides vacuums). Does the fact that they are Wilton Wool make a difference in how you care for them? Also, there is a foam pad under each carpet. It is not closed cell and does soak up some water. They've been out long enough now they should be pretty dry (about 2 weeks). Cleaning them? Making them where they don't soak up water? TIA, Tony
i have always used meguiars APC. it works great for carpets and helps remove oder and stains.use that with a carpet brush and towel it down.let it dry before you put it back in your car.otherwise it will smell from moisture...the foam pads i would use the APC as well but do not soak it.spray on a towel and wipe over it...good luck hope that helps.
