  • my 1st wed & dry clean of my car matts

    Today I set out to give my car matts a good clean with my new (recommended by Andy RabidRacoon28) Nilfisk multi 20 wet & dry vacuum cleaner,
    Autobrite FAB carpet cleaner, hard brush & soft brush



    The matts as you can see are quite dirty and in need of a good clean



    The picture below was taken after a quick brush with the hard brush and a dry vacuum



    Below is after FAB was applied agitated with the soft brush



    And then vacuumed dried with the Nilfisk



    As you can see the from the next photo the amount of crud that was pulled from the matts



    And the final result



    Not bad for a job that was less than 30 minuets :star:

    Great job pal. Its a really easy machine to use don't you think and provides great results?

    Don't forget the blower function is especially useful also for panel gaps and behind the mirrored glass on the wing mirrors when drying the car after a wash.

        Yea really happy with the results, looking forward to using the blow functions as soon as the weather improves here in the south west /south wales
        I'm going to keep a eye out for extra attachment's failing that I'll ask the miss father to fabricate something for me.

          They almost look like new again. The wet and dry vac is good idea, as my wife's c3 interior would make some of you cringe lol.
          I'm addicted to brake fluid, but I can stop anytime.

                  Hi Andy, it's very nice Thank You. So far the weather has not caught me out in it, having been cautious of the rear wheel drive

                  Good to see you,
                  Clive.

                      Yes, so true Andy, luckily I've got my old trusty Sportage for when it snows! Just been taking a look through all the posts in here.

                          You compliment me too well my friend, you're right up there

                          I'm struggling for time with details for others, doing a few - but do have a few nice cars lined up. Mainly around training nowadays, still hope we get chance to meet Andy

                          Best Wishes,
                          Clive.
