Go to a local hardware store and rent a carpet cleaner for the day. Along with the normal carpet brushes you should also get a smaller tool used to clean hose furniture upholstery. This is one of those machines that sprays a combination of very hot water and non foaming soap, it also has a vacuum or suction function that removes most of the applied water/soap along with large quantities of dirt. i don't know where you would find a rental place where you are but where i am in British Columbia, Canada we can rent them at hardware stores, some grocery stores and probably even at Home Depot. Ask around. We have used these machines for carpet and seat cleaning in all our vehicles with very good results. ----- Original Message ----- From: Jim Morgan To: vanagon@GERRY.VANAGON.COM Sent: Monday, November 12, 2001 3:46 PM Subject: Re: NEW VANAGON!! and how do I clean the interior?
I used zepp carpet cleaner and zepp upholstery cleaner. I got luckey and they both came as a two spray bottle pac. about 10 to 15 bucks at home depot. I suggest also using a small scrub brush along with white terry cloth towles-(see instructions on the bottle). It took me about 1/2 day to clean my 86 GL
