    Carpet mats?

    Can I put my carpet mats in the washing machine? I got cat poo on them
    I'm bit of a puff when it comes to cleaning poolmao

    Id throw them out and buy some more mats from these guys. Vauxhall Car Mats.

    Bought some for my corsa the other week and were fair decent!

    Good luck in your quest to remove the poo......

    pressure wash them then spray on some sort of upholstry cleaner(such as ag interior shampoo) and work in with a hard bristled brush then rinse with the pressure washer and hang out to dry.

    i just took mines out and covered them in upholstry cleaner and soaked them with the hose and scrubbed them with a hard brissle brush, ****ers cost me £50 from vauxhall but have now bought another set of the tailored rubber matts to cover the good ones to keep them pretty

    you've bought mats to cover your mats that cover the carpet that covers the floor?
