Storm_VR6 0 Posted October 5, 2006 Some of you may be aware that my Storm is in the for sale section. Not too fussed with it selling now as I've managed to buy myself a nice cheap car that has lots of room for shopping, pushchairs and luggage. The only problem is that the last owner had a dog that has left dog hairs all over the car seats and carpet...with so many of these car valet places opening up around the Birmingham area, I thought I'd hand it in to one for the clean up. Charged me £50. Car is a lot cleaner but the hairs on the carpet and seats are still there. That dog must of gone bald and lost all it's hair in the dam car. Does anybody have any tips on HOW TO remove pet hairs from seats/carpets??? Please help!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Andy665 0 Posted October 5, 2006 I always find it really easy - simply give the hoover to the wife and tell her its her time to do it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CoxyLaad 0 Posted October 5, 2006 you can buy sticky pads for that specific purpose which work well. You can also buy a really fine comb that you can take them out with Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Storm_VR6 0 Posted October 5, 2006 ']['H3R4POR - Thanks dude, sticky tape will take hours, off to Asda tonight to buy a lint brush...... Any other ways of doing this ?

Goldie 2 Posted October 5, 2006 Ive seen a sticky roller thing that you clean by running a tap on it. Its from Lakeland and they do the sticky pads as well Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Storm_VR6 0 Posted October 5, 2006 Riley - You've hit the nail on the head mate, that's exactly what has happened, it's as if the hairs are growing from the carpet & seats.....where do I get the pad from ? Goldie - Not sure what lakeland is ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2corrados 0 Posted October 5, 2006 when you use sticky tape, wrap it back to front round your hand, easier than a brush and more effective. just a thought in case you were thinking of sticking it all over the seats.....................lol Lakeland is a kitchen and household goods shop.most high streets Have fun Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Storm_VR6 0 Posted October 5, 2006 2corrados - lol.......cheers m8. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Riley 0 Posted October 5, 2006 Hi m8,if you click the above pic,i have them listed on the site. Should have some in stock day after tommorow. :) These purpose made...brushes collect the hair,or at the very least loosen it. Neil. :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Storm_VR6 0 Posted October 5, 2006 Riley - If i don't get it sorted by the weekend will definately buy one...Thanks again. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Riley 0 Posted October 5, 2006 No probs m8 :) if you have some rubber gloves...(steady :lol: ) stick em on and then brush your hand across the material.Probably not as effective on the carpet... The removal brush we sell is what the trade use,so it does do the job if need be. Neil. :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Goldie 2 Posted October 6, 2006 Id imagine that lakeland has internet order site as well as being on most highstreets. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
