Do you have money OP? Go to walmart, get some carpet cleaner and a plastic brush. Get some water from a sink at a car wash and mix with a bit of carpet cleaner, let it seep for like 1min then scrub off and lift off with a rag or towel. Repeat until gone you stupid nigger

Pressure wash the shit out of it nigga

if only there were stores that sold upholstery cleaner and cleaning tools.

>>15662574
Thats burnt, nigga
The only thing you can do is replace the carpet

Paint stripper will take that right out.

>>15662584
Will it make it go soft again like the rest of the carpet? Or will it just leave it look clean and as if no one has ever smoked inside?

If this won't take it out, it's probably not going to come out.

Either get a tweezers and pick out the burnt fibers or cut the burnt tips off of the fibers with a pair of scissors

>>15662603
Ok what if it is burnt. How can I clean it up so it doesn't stay looking like a meteor crashed it. I want to make it look vanilla again like the rest of the carpet

That's not a stain that shit is burnt, you're fucked.

Nice burn marks, they aren't ever coming out.

Shouldn't have borrowed mum and dads car and smoked in it faggot

>>15662632
Anyway to clean it tho?!?

>>15662614
If you do it right you want match it. It could come out looking cleaner. But if you put a tiny bit at a time,scrub, and lift over and over until you match the color. That's what i did when i stepped on oil and i went into my truck. I just applied diluted carpet cleaner until it matched the rest of the carpet

Hey anons so I went to Vatozone and recommended me this. Will it work? Were my 8 bucks of justice or did I just basically burned my money and potentially fucking up my carpet

>>15662695
You take everything out of the car except dash and headliner then take the carpet out. Now put the new carpet in. After that you put everything back. It's really easy if you are patient and are careful with the plastic clips and keep the screws organized.

>>15662788
it'll help but it don't expect any miracles your shit is fucking toasted dude.

Completely wasted your money but it will smell nice. You might be able to cut the burnt ends off the carpet with a razor but if it's burnt in deep you are absolutely fucked.

upholstery/carpet cleaner.
if there were any embers that burned the fibers then you're fucked

>>15662822

If you run your finger over the burnt spot and its hard then it can't be fixed.

>>15662822
jesus christ, if it's just burnt then cut out the charred parts. That's literally the only way you're going to get rid of burn marks in carpet.

>>15662822
It's hard to tell on the carpet might just be ashes, so I'm sure the carpet cleaner will help, but your seat is fucking 100% roasted and there really is no fixing it other than getting a new seat.
You can cut out the burned fibers like people are saying but then your seat will have a fucking bald spot and it'll look like shit still.

Scrub the fuck out of it with the foam style carpet cleaner a few times and see if the black goes away (doubt it will though).

Worse case scenario you can try this, just steal the fibers needed from under your seat OR remove your rear seat and steal a small amount from under there

Lol we used to do this at my old work to fix up cars before selling them, it doesn't last long but it helps.
IDK how well it would work on a seat since the fibers are so short, it'll still look weird I'd think.

>Either get a tweezers and pick out the burnt fibers or cut the burnt tips off of the fibers with a pair of scissors

That is actually good advice for the RUG problem as you described. The solution is different if it is seat upholstery. However you said RUG so that means the carpet where you put your feet. Stain remover does not get rid of burned melted carpet fibers. Burned and melted fibers mixed with the ash are going to look darkened. You have to carefully cut out just the tops of individual fibers that were burned. The adjacent uncut taller fibers will cover up the spot with a little agitation.

Remember, you are not cutting deep unless you continue being careless in this car by letting dirty careless friends into it. You are not cutting lots of fibers unless you are careless. Impatient people just snip away at the whole mess. That is wrong.

What you need are very small scissors with tiny tips. That would be sewing scissors or the tiny scissors from a swiss pocketknife. You then get your face close and use the tip of the scissors to tease out each fiber that is melted and snip it just below the melted part. Thus, part of that fiber remains. You are not snipping the entire fiber at the root. Tweezers may help you pick apart the fibers, but you can also simply poke one blade in and move upwards to loosen fibers.

All spots should recover from the "cut" look as adjacent fibers move over and cover up the spot. The exception is lower left "big" spot which might still be visible as a depression after cutting. The compensation for this is to cut out a few of the fibers at the root from the circumference of the cut area. That will then let the adjacent taller fibers have more leeway to lean over and cover more of the depression.

Get floor mats.

By taking your time, you will fix the problem. Or you can be impatient and close your mind off to the advice multiple people have given you.

*continued*

Also, do not do cutting while you are still on drugs or you are going to end up with a crappy job. Drugs make you do impatient decisions and then self-justify those decisions as being just and correct. You then blame the rest of us for giving you bad advice when it is the same method we'd use on our own cars if we had stupidly damaged them.

Don't let people smoke in your car. They will forget themselves and the problem will happen again. Or you can get floor mats and let them tap ashes carelessly onto the mats. They will do that when you aren't looking. That is how drug users are.

The first place to do the cutting is the smallest spot. This will give you some self-training in going thru the process. The last thing to work on is that huge spot on the lower left. By then, you will be skilled at doing it. Circumference correction is a technique used on home carpets and does work. Another is shaving the adjacent tall area slightly at a graduated angle. That removes the "hole" as it blends the height difference.

Smokers should always have full floor mats - especially if the carpet is light colored. Get floor mats like the ones at:

>>15664501

Before you begin any cutting, re-examine the burnt area.

If it is wilted fibers then scraping might be all that is needed. If multiple fibers are actually melted together in a dark slag floating on top of the fibers, then cutting is usually needed.

You might be tempted to simply yank the burnt tops off, but you risk pulling out the whole fibers or breaking them off at points lower than if you had simply cut each fiber at the topmost spot. But if you are impatient, then the shortcut method (not advised) is to grip the burnt part firmly and then slice below the gripped part with an xacto.

For the small problem spots, use the fine scissors to cut only the individual problem fibers. Don't cut the non-problem fibers. This is where those tiny swiss knife scissors excels due to the thin sharp blades. If you have a chinese knock-off with those thick bladed scissors of soft metal, that sucks. I've seen those sold in stores and they even have the swiss victorinox logo on them, but the tools in them are clearly sucky. The scissors are my favorite part of those knives so I always look at them as the first judge of quality.

In my first post, I was terse with instructions as I like to be. But in case you are a graduate of the American USA High School System that seems to graduate anyone that breathes, then I have to repeat. Because people really suck at reading. And suck twice again at following instructions since they only do what they like and skip doing any parts they don't like. Then they wonder what went wrong and blame the advice giver.

>>15662574
>See those dirty stains help me figure out how to clean the rug up ASAP!

Use a rug and upholstery cleaner. That is the kind that foams up when you spray it on. Its label will say rub in the foam gently but not to work it deep down because that drives the stain downward. It says let it dry and then vacuum. It may say repeat as necessary. One of the brands is woolite.

After cleaning the dark stains, the melted fibers have to be carefully clipped out like others said in this threads.

>>15662788
Fucked for your burned as carpet but it does take dirt out the carpet and upholstery. A small brush would be better than the one on the can

>>15667693
OP hasn't posted a response after his drugs wore off, so maybe he gave up trying to fix the problem? Or he's getting those tiny scissors?

I'm back! Somehow I was banned from replying my own fucking thread last night. Anyways I'm at work. When I get off I'm going to my local car wash and use the TurtleWax they recommended me. Hopefully it works out Anons! I was just stupid faded from smoking 3 backwoods
