How do I dry out?
How do I dry out?
The inside passenger floor carpet was saturated by coolant a couple months ago [heater core blew] and it is still very wet. I have shampoo'd the carpet and used a shop vac to suck up all the moisture but it is still very wet. It also has a grimey feel to it, reminents of the coolant ,i believe. It is so wet i am getting condensation inside on all my windows every morning from th ehigh level of moisture in the car.I think the padding underneath is saturated as well. Anyway to remedy this or do i just have to wait for the summer when it get nice and hot in there and evaporates the moisture? But will the coolant ever evaporate?

If it is saturated below the carpet, you may need to pull it up. One of my customers has anti-freeze leak on the carpet of his Wrangler and I had to pull up the carpet to clean the stuff underneath.
