Carpet Mold? October 03, 2010, 02:45:18 AM Anyone Dealt with this?I can go grab a Still Dark Black (Raven) Carpet from a T-Bird at the JY right now. This would save me the trouble of Dying my Gray Carpeting Black. (already had planned)BUT!It got wet on the floor just under/behind the seats and greenish white layer of mold has started up...Should i avoid at all costs, Or is this really not a big deal~Just clean it up real good?I assume the mold is mostly living in the heavy sound dampening fibers that are glued to the back of the carpet, And i will be removing this for weight reduction anyway.Thoughts?

Mix a little bit of bleach with your cleaner to kill the mold and clean the floor pans too you dont want any of that in your car. Quote Selected
