Re: doin the major clean

pressure washing mine was the best thing i have ever done.

heres my sticky if u need a reference

http://www.s10forum.com/forum/f74/ho...carpet-291412/


on the seats i just wacked the dust out of mine then used a shop vac. nothing special but i didnt have any stains, then i febreze the hell out of them and let them sit for a day to dry.

good luck

Re: doin the major clean

careful w/ the headliner too. Dont want to soak it too much and degrade the glue and cause it to droop.

Re: doin the major clean

finished up the carpet, waitin on it to dry so i can put it back in tommorow. i scrubbed it with tide laundry detergent. it smells great! wiped everything down with armorall gel, works pretty good. tried the new ice wax liquid. wasnt very impressed. i get the same results with eagle one wax as you dry. i guess tommorw when i put the interior back in we will see if it was worth it.
