How do you guys get rid of thick salt stains on your carpets?

[Fo2Ab]

I've used products similar to this at Canadian Tire (http://www.canadiantire.ca/en/pdp/tu...l#.U0awtIZJNew) just make you sure you get the carpet wet and then use this. A little bit of muscle and it came out.

All weather rubber mats. All you need is a hose. There was a set in my trunk when I got the car home. Not sure if dealer threw them in or if it was part of the M Perf package?

Mix 1 part vinegar 2 parts water, and gently rub out the salt stains with a sponge or rag.
Then when its dry and you're sure all the salt is gone, flush out the vinegar with clean water.

Agreed! They were already "installed" when I picked my 335i up. Snug fit, looks good and works even better. Less worry in the rain/snow Definitely worth the money.

Next year.....doesnt really help me now. Going to try hot water and vinegar. Brutal.

Don't use hot water. Cold water and vinegar will work better.

This was a harsh winter and even with the factory mats I had salt staining near the accelerator and also at the end of the mat under the seats.

I used 5 cans of salt eraser from CT at $9.99 a can, stuff purchased from eShine.ca as well as a carpet cleaner from Chemical Guys and absolutely nothing worked to my satisfaction.

I had a bottle of Bissell tough stain carpet pre -treatment cause my son has frequent nose bleeds and would drip all over the hallways as he ran to the bathroom. I sprayed it on and left it for 15 mins and to my surprise all the hard salt and stains had completely disappeared.

At $5.99 a bottle, works like a charm with absolutely no scrubbing. Just dab with a damn cloth afterwards.

I'll get a bottle today. Thanks. Wheres your other pedal? Love the dead pedal, very cool.

Haha thanks.....the dead pedal comes stock with the M Performance editions.

Wife has to drive it occasionally when I work on her car and I spend a lot of time on the phone when I'm on the road so the 6mt was out of the question this time around 😓

[335BOY]

I assume hands free on the phone.....fine just went up to $280 and may include points!!
I got a bottle of that Bissell stuff . Will try it tonight.
