Wink Damn dog lovers!



I bought my beater FC (87) recently off of a local art student, and the thing is in pretty damn good condition with 51xxx miles. But the kid had a dog and, well, the dog had hair . The crap is pretty much all over the interior, especially the rear hatch area. I tried my darndest to get it out w/ vacuum, tape, etc, but there is still a good amount. It's no biggie, just grosses me out a little.

Any of you dog people have a good method? TIA.

I groom my rott once a day. Bathe her once a month, feed her every day. That's what I do with my dog.

Oh, as to your interior question, shampoo the s@#t out of it and literally brush the carpet with hair brush (them bristley one) and brush'em out. It'll work. It works for me. I use seat protective cover when I take my dog for a ride. Just have to clean the windows afterward. She has serious drooling problems.

Take a paper towel, wet it, and rub the fur covered areas. You may find that the fur "*****" up and you can just keep picking the fur off the paper towel. Good luck.

Try putting on rubber gloves (the yellow ones that you do dishes with) and running your hands over the carpet. You should be able to sweep the hair up in to piles and grab it. Works great for cat hair on furniture

I was thinking that, as the hair is all between the seats and everything. I'm gonna try the other methods first though...thanks for the tips.

Go to petsmart and by the stuff that removes the smell for the carpet... wask the inside of your car with the stuff... it works but may take a couple of washing to remove all the smell


good luck

Pull the seats out, it's 4 bolts, and that'll make it easier to vacuum. Duct tape works very well if the vac doesn't do its job.
