Shopping for Land Rover LR3 Parts
As you (and your passengers) get into your Land Rover LR3, you bring in dirt and debris from your shoes and leave these behind the carpet, trapped into the fibers. Accumulated dirt can be hard to clean if you leave this untreated for a long while. After some time, this may cause bad odor to linger or for mold, bacteria, and mildew to build up. You don't have to call in an expensive carpet cleaning service to have your carpet treated. You can use some household items to beat carpet stains, remove mold and mildew, and eliminate the funky smell in your sport utility vehicle. Here are some home remedies for automotive carpet care:
- Get rid of the funky smell in your Rover with the use of baking soda.
If you have that funky smell in your Rover, it's most probably from mold or mildew breeding on some moist spots on your SUV. You'll have to treat the mold or mildew to remove the bad odor for good, but as a temporary fix, you can get rid of it by sprinkling some baking soda on the carpet of the SUV or even the seats, if the foul odor seems to come from this surface. You just have to let the sprinkled baking soda to settle for a few hours before using a vacuum to clean it off. If the smell won't go away right away, you may try this several times.
- Find the source of the moisture to treat mold.
Mold breeds in humid areas or wherever there's moisture. To beat the mold, you have to find the source of the moisture. You have several home remedies to consider for beating the mold buildup on your vehicle, particularly the carpet. Try using chlorine bleach. Add one part bleach to one part water. Use a sponge or cloth to wipe away mold using this solution. A spray made of equal parts vinegar and water is also an effective solution for cleaning mold on surfaces. Other options include borax powder, hydrogen peroxide, and grapefruit seed extract. You can also make a homemade disinfectant spray, mixing 2 cups of brewed green tea and juice made out of two lemons.
- Follow some homemade remedies to remove stains.
The carpet may be ruined by different kinds of stains, and there are more than a few home remedies to treat them. For coffee or tea stain, beer can be used to lift off the stains on the material, while for spilled juice, you can try blotting it out using shaving cream, which can also be used on grease stains. Spilled milk can be treated with cornstarch paste, allowing it to dry on the carpet before brushing off the residue. In case of blood stains, you can use meat tenderizer combined with equal parts cold water. Just let it sit for about half an hour and use a sponge dipped in cold water to wipe off the stains. For tough-to-remove stains such as pet urine, club soda can be a good solution. Soak it with the club soda. It also works on spilled coffee and tea. Vinegar is among the most popular homemade remedies for different kind of stains.
