well i sunk my truck tonight got it all up and runnin sum wat but i was wonderin yall know how to dry out this carpet or prevent mildew while this carpet is dryin out?



any feed back is appreciated..

 

charles take it to a car wash and use the shampooer it should help. while the carpet is wet rinse with clean water.. your a dork for not checking the water first.. in 2wd hope you get it fixed

 

all i would do is pull the seats out then the carpet, then get a shampooer and shampoo that unit, or you can take it all out and put some spray in box liner on the floor so that next time you sink your truck you dont have to worry about the carpet, just an idea.

 

you cant just put spray in bed liner in the newer trucks theres wires all over under the carpet i hate that answer that everyone says that next time look how deep the water is so you dont fill your truck up

 

well there is always the option of you know, moving those wires, you know modding, changing things, that good old thing

 

like i said in your other trhead....completely gut that interior. There's no way to reuse that carpeting. it'll never dry and the mildew has already started. replace seats, seat belts, carpeting, padding underneeth the carpet.

Were you 'TrucksGoneWild'ing your truck?

 

Run 'em above the headliner would be pretty sweet.

 

LOL, put some nice ricer buckets in there rip the crapet out and put spray in liner in

 

Did you expect him to go swiming in a mud hole???

Should he of rented a crane to hoist him over the hole so he could measure the depths of it???

 

well it was kinda hard the part i was in was level like 2 ft watter hard bootm just crusin along the bam straight down head lights were under half the hood was under and now i already shop vac the interior i got cat litter in there soakin up acces water i already got it runnin like a top again =] "sea foam"

 

it's a joke pace51 i have meet and talked to charles before therefor giving me right to make a joke... he is cool as hell just doin a lil picking on

 

ya lol it's no big deal just glad shes up and runnin again =]

 

Yea I did that a w hile back.

Take out the seats and carpet, clean and dry them. Take off the door panels and make sure there is no water in them also. I'd replace the carpet ASAP it will never be the same...

 

does any 1 know where to get vinyl flooring that way i dont have to go thru this again? preferably black =]

 

when i had carpet i would just soak it with fresh water clean the muck out as much as i could then leave the windows and doors open all night and day

 

if im right that stuff comes stock in chevy singlecabs.
You could go to a junkyard to find some.

 

mybad

 

well i used a shop vac and cleaned it out really good and all used some bakin soda and cat litter but tis still a lil damp i got the windows cracked so it airs out causes its rainin but when it stop ill leave the door's open
