How did you clean the carpets on the CL 55?

 

[Platinum MD]

i have a carpet extractor and i jsut put the carpet shampoo in it and spray it on scru it around and sucks it out but a wet vac would have done just as good of a job.

How do you get the "lines" in the carpeting? I'd like to try the same thing as it has a real professional look to it.

If I may...

Using the nozzle on the extractor or the flat attachment of your shop vac, PULL the nozzle in one direction along the mat or carpet, and then PUSH the nozzle in the other direction next to the line you just did, keeping an nice even pattern and you will acheive that professional look with the lines!

 

[Platinum MD]

yea but i jsut turn the mat around cause pulling is easyer the pushing but both ways work great

 

[f1guy68]

How do you do the carpets in the car...spin the car....hehehehehehe

Either way will work though, and it looks great!

Super Job!
