Crying over spilt... oil?

[Bimmerman]

Only because it was an almost full bottle of mobil 1 and it went all through my boot (trunk) carpet, lid came loose with you-guessed-it results...:( i have cleaned most of the oil out by removing the carpet and spraying with degreaser and plenty of fresh water, also removed the spare tyre and cleaned out the car, however cant quite seem to get the oily feel out of the carpet, flipped through the bentley's and did a search here, no ideas. Will dry cleaning fluid help? any ideas out there? TIA...:)

easy fix: buy a new carpet :)

buy a gallon of Zep brake parts cleaner, pour it on, blow it off.

crap dude that sux.. i know laundry detergent will get it out.. but that will be really messy (moreso)

I use it on bikes, motorcycles, and car parts.

Degreases anything and is not bad for the enviroment.

Tastes crappy!

If all else fails, go to the car wash, put the trunk mat on the clips for floormats, use the degreaser setting and then blast it with the high pressure rinse. It'll come out.
