Last night i forgot to grab my coke can out of the truck and this morning i saw coke everywhere. any ideas on clean up? i have cloth interior and its all over the windows. i tried Windex but it just smears.

 

Ouch... It sounds like it was regular coke. I've had diet coke explode on me, and cleanup was a breeze.

However, for the seats, I recommend:



^^ Stuff is great, and it has NEVER stained those gray seats that everyone complains about.

 

Folex (from Lowe's) on the seats and carpet. And soap and water on the windows and everything else pretty much. Just don't use to much.

 

I got some of that here too... never tried it in the truck... next time I have a mess, I'll experiment..

 

Went I bought my beater Cavi™, it was very obvious that he had an addiction to Mountain Dew, Dr. Pepper, and sunflower seeds. You could also tell that he had spilled a big ole thing of Dr. Pepper on the front right carpet. Sprayed some carpet cleaner on it, let it soak, scrub it in, then wipe up with a towel and all is good. For the windows, I'd use warm hot soapy water. Use that on the door panels also.

 

cool thanks for the recommendations on the fabric cleaner.

 

For the windows, since it is probably sticky. Just glass cleaner (Do not use windex on car windows, it destroys your UV coating) and steel wool. Use alot of glass cleaner. This will work if you have aftermarket tinted windows. It will just scratch the heck out of your tint job.

 

DON'T USE STEEL WOOL! You're going to scratch your windows and leave permanent damage. That's horrible advice!

Coke is primarily sugar. Park in a garage and close the door to keep the chill out. Then use very hot water soaked towels and dissolve the coke off of your glass and other parts. Don't soak your interior though. Or, invest in a bissell steam clean machine.

Again, it's just dried up sugar syrup. Don't go causing more damage.

 

Take pictures of the carnage!

 

 

My thoughts exactly.

 

Pretty much what I was thinking as well.

 

I'm confused also

 

unless the steel wool is really abrasive it won't do any damage but in this case it would be pointless and is only recommended to get rid of water spots.

 

I'd recommend you do alot more reading and experminting(sp?) before you go giving out advice here.
