growing fuzz

["A. Foster" <monkeypuzzle1@xxxxxxx>]

Dave;
  I would clean those carpets with a steam cleaner with maybe a tablespoon
of T.S.P (found in paint stores) added to about 1-1/2 gallons of the water.
Not only will this clean up the mould and dirt but it will kill the smell at
the same time. With regard to the headliner I would be a little more careful
and just use some soap and water in a spray bottle. Spray it lightly, don't
soak it, and gently dab it with a soft cloth.
 As for cutting down on the moisture the calcium chloride tablets sounds
like an idea, or possibly a box or dish of baking soda. What I have done is
to place a small electric car heater inside and plug it in once in a while,
for a few hours, to dry the car out. This works quite well.

> Hi All,
>    I have treated our Imp poorly, I'm afraid, and left it out in the rain
with a water leak in the trunk. It developed a mold problem in the carpet
there, so I moved the wife's car out of the garage and put the Imp in and
opened it all up. The moisture that developed inside the car that migrated
from the trunk and is now growing mold on the carpet inside and on the
headliner. Shame on me:-(. Will I be able to kill this stuff permanently
without having to gut the interior, and what do I use if I can?
