Re: Bad odour - carpet replacement options?
 

You need to literaly soak the carpet with lysol. It's not the carpet, it's
the padding under neath. If you happen to have access to a hypodermic
needle it's best to inject the padding with lysol every square foot. Then
let it dry and you'll be fine.

I actually had pretty good luck with it, on camel colored Jeep carpet.
I agree about the Febreze though, has its own nasty scent that's worse
in some ways than what you're trying to clean up!

"I'd pull the rugs, scrub the hell out of them and throroughly clean the
floor and padding underneath them."
Left out one step:
throw them out... real jeeps don't have carpet... (where's Bill when you
need him??)

Re: Bad odour - carpet replacement options?
 

Have you tried Lava Dust sold at Ace Hardware stores.
I had some foul odors in the cargo area of my 82 Wag that this stuff
eventually eliminated.

Of course i have since eliminated the 82 Wag! lol
