Dog hair removal!

qcdsmtsi · 07-23-2005, 10:57 PM

I just got my jimmy, and the guy that had it before me had dogs, and the cargo area is FULL of hair.

I spent literally 5 hrs vacuuming the whole truck, and got from the back seats forward cleaned. Now the cargo area is where the dogs were mainly kept, and its the worst. I cannot get all of the hair out.

I have tried vacuums, both suction and roller type. Dog hair/lint roller, brushes, and a rubber static brush (Petsmart said would work)

I dont know what else to do, or try.

Any good tips???

Thanks

I will see if I can get a hold of a steam cleaner, and hopefully it helps!

i love taking my dog in my truck - the common lint roller seems to do the trick for me

maybe pull out the carpet and pressure wash it...i'd prolly do that anyways...would be the only clean way for me....cuz where theres dog hair...theres prolly be dog SHAT....

lol...hopefully not

there is no getting dog hair out...that's just a fact.

if you want to give it a whirl, use water. Water can catch the hair and u may be somewhat ok.

nothing like a double post 30min apart.

You can do what Jeep Wrangler people do, remove the carpeting and spray in a bedliner like Rihno or Line-X in place of carpet, then just hose it down. For the seats, get a seat cover when the dog's in there and then you can shake it out and machine wash. This is one think I like about the Honda Element and may replace our S-10 with that, no carpet and neoprene seats.

I'd try a steam cleaner, and if that doesn't work, try renting one of those carpet cleaners. Dog hair isn't impossible to remove, but it can be a pain in the ass
