Awfulcanawful Posted May 21, 2004 Report Share Posted May 21, 2004 I am an idiot and left all my windows down in the hurricane tonight and the seats of my truck are soaked hardcore. Anyone got any tips to get the water out quick? I dont want it to smell or have to drive around sitting on a trashbag for the next month. Thanks.

dq driver Posted May 21, 2004 Report Share Posted May 21, 2004 i'd use a powerful shopvac or maybe you can rent one of those carpet steam cleaners... my roomates jeep smells horrible because he likes to leave his top off and/or windows down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BiG BeN Posted May 21, 2004 Report Share Posted May 21, 2004 the vacuums at the car wash work well..but you'll have a case of the wetass getting there.and drop alot of change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
konig_twinkies Posted May 21, 2004 Report Share Posted May 21, 2004 happened to me before, get a dehumidifer and put it in the car. close everything up, it will take probably a couple times doing it but it should get it all out and leave no smell. smile.gif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It works for helping out really wet carpet in da house too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mensan Posted May 23, 2004 Report Share Posted May 23, 2004 Buy a box of arm & hammer baking soda, open it, close up all the windows and leave it in the sun. Baking soda is a natural dessicant. Once all your shit is dry, you can sprinkle it on your carpet before you vacuum and it will prevent odors as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
