Subject:      brake fluid on my floor mats...what I do?
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1

  From multiple muffed brake and clutch reservoir/MC removals and
replacements I have brake fluid soaked carpet under my feet.  I have a
rubber mat that covers the carpet.  Whenever I remove that mat, it is wet on
the  under-side and when I lift the carpet (dark brown now) there is plenty
of moisture in the padding under and the carpet is wet as well.  My van is a
working van not a show piece but I'd kinda feel better if the floor wasn't
wet all the time.  Anyone have any ideas how to get this blotted up?  I know
brake fluid loves H2o, so I am guessing that it helps collect water in the
carpet.  I also live in the Northwest, so I bring wet feet into the van
often.


  Ideas? tricks?
