Carpet Cleaning
 
Anyone got some good tecniques for cleaning coffee stains out of carpet. The previus owner seemed to have spilled it all over the place. Any other tips on Uphostery cleaning etc would be appreciated. I just dont have the funds to take it to a detailing shop

side68... is this on your '68 or a new vehicle? I haven't found the "right" product for the weave type carpet in the older vehicles, however, if this is for a new vehicle I have used Blue Corral (IIRC) carpet cleaner with great results. It sprays in a foam and includes a brush/applicator, scrub in and either let dry or vacuum up. Works great!

It's in a tall blue can w/ applicator brush on top at your local parts store.

the bissel carpet cleaner works really good for car interiors. the off brand stuff also works good. spray it on scrub a bit let it do its thing and clean it up.

I use touch stuff foam spray . Spray it on let it soak and blot it up with a cotton towel . If that does not take it up then brush it in and pull on it with a vacuum . Only brush it in if blotting won't pull it up .
