Carpet impossible to vacuum

[Wellsy]

Is it just me or is the inside carpet, both in cabine and boot, impossible to vacuum properly.. especially the flexfloor is hard.
 
Every thing sticks to the carpet. I had a Vectra C OPC before and the carpet was very different and a lot easier to vacuum and get clear.. 

The carpet also feels a lot cheaper and not what you would expect in a newish car... It feels like something you would use for selfmade subwoofer cabinet.


I vacuum my car every week and also use rubber floormats in the winter time.. But still I feel it is a pain to vacuum.

Am I the only one?

Hi mate,

As a detailer, this is part and parcel of my job.

The only way to guarantee a clean carpet every time, is to shampoo it.

My J is the same, which is why I shampoo it everytime.

Mix some APC (all purpose cleaner) with some water. Around 1:10 Dilution.

Spray all over, covering the entire area, and use a scrubbing brush in a circular motion, which will loosen the dirt particals.

Use a microfibre towel to remove the foam if any.

After this, use a wet vacuum or a extractor to soak up the fluid.

Then voila.

Hope that helps.
