Allright, here is the deal.
I pulled out all my seats in my 88 ski nautique 2001. The carpet is not faded just dirty. My question is what should i get for carpet cleaner? Should i just use the cheap .99 cent foam cleaner? I will be doing my entire carpet.
I also finished rewiring my system. I just got a new mp3 cd palyer. Pioneer flip face one. Rewired my amp so it is a cleaner install. My system is currently a pioneer cd palyer, 2 6.5 kenwoods up front, 2 12'' planet audio subs, bazooka 600 watt mono amp. I will be throwing another set of 6.5's in the boat. DOES ANYONE KNOW FOR SURE IF PIONEER MAKES A TRANSOM REMOTE???
Once, i get a tower (still undecided), there will be 4 6.5's up there, powered by some 4 channel amp. What is a decent 4 channel amp that will power some 200 watt 6.5's speakers. I just want someting that will give me a little extra needed boost and dont shatter my wallet to pieces/
perfect pass wakeboard pro, will soon be purchased sometime soon. I need to start saving more mooney up for this stuff. I will post some pics of the system and boat once it is all cleaned up and system finished up for now. _________________ GOT NAUTIQUE? |

I've used ordinary carpet cleaner machine solution... mix it up in a bucket with steaming hot water, pour a bit on the carpet and rub it with a scrub brush... then suck it up with a shop vac...
works amazing, and makes your carpet look like new... and smell fresh too.
make sure you can leave the boat in the sun for a day or 2 after such a deep cleaning to make sure the carpet fully dries.

I just cleaned my boats carpet yesterday, i used Cheer Laundry Detergent and warm water. Then I used my tire scrub brush and shop vac.
I had my girlfriend do the scrubbing and i went behind her with the shop vac.

Combine your cleaning experience! Rent a rug doctor with hand attachments and do the house, garage....whatever, and your boat. I was impressed, but would not have solely rented it just for that. _________________ Visit my DIY Projects
