<HTML>A rubber brush... that is, a brush made of rubber.

Brush and vac at the same time. It's still pretty hard work but it gets the job done.</HTML>

<HTML>try some latex gloves........put them on and rake your gloved hands over the hair. It comes up fairly easy and can then be vacuumed.

<HTML>The key is to brush and vacuum at the same time. I'll have to try that rubber brush idea too. That sounds good.</HTML>

<HTML>One key to using the rubber brush (which we have) is to create static electricity. Using that theory in mind it works fairly well. I also caught a commercial on TV for some new product by Arm and Hammer for pet hair removal on household carpets; was gunna pick up some of that and check it out. Might be worth a few bucks... never know.

<HTML>Latex gloves and the pet hair removal system from Top Of The Line are the only things you will need to remove 99% of any hair you may encounter. I've done vehicles that you could make king size comforters out of all the hair that came out. Another trick I learned was using the Turbo Nozzle attachment from Hoover on my vacuum.</HTML>

<HTML>We offer a special sponge block that takes pet hair off of automobile upholstery. I personally have found it to be quite effective as with two large German shephards who shed profusely in the summer months.

<HTML>Want a really easy way to get the hair to release and be sucked up in the vaccum?

Most of the hair is held by a static charge generated by the types of artifical fabrics used in vehicles.

Buy a can of the cheapest aerosol "anti-static" spray you can find and mist the fabric or carpet, give it about a minute, then vac the fabric/carpet.

If some still remains, and doesn't it always, brush the area in "one way", aligning the fibers, remist and vac in the same direction.

It's gone!

Another way, but not quite as effective, is by a bottle of fabric softener that says "anti-static" on it, mix it about 20 to 1 and use it.

Not as effective as the aerosol, but does help.

<HTML>Humm, so this "is a concept" that most did not consider?

Really expected to see some responses, either defending or questioning.

Guess it was a bit over most.

<HTML>Thanks Grumpy! I'm definitely going to try your suggestion. Is the anti-static spray the kind someone uses for clothing?</HTML>

<HTML>Ah try doing that with a jetta carpet and see if if just comes out after spraying. The seats are easy just latex gloves, but the carpet no way They are the worst for hair entrapment i have done but then i charge 150 for a nasty pet hair interior alone and i do plenty of them

It all depends on the type of vehicle and the carpet ,upholstery that is in it.
Yesterday i did an 2003 infinity suv,coated in dog hair but came up so easy with the vacuum brush be(www.pethair.com) cause if the high quality carpet. I also use a steel crevice tool which i curved slightly and works great with ketchs method of getting hairs that are not driven in to some fabrics between the seats and tight spots u can,t get with the brush</HTML>

<HTML>At last! I tracked down the exact brush we use on the internet....
It's at the bottom of this page:-

[www.yellowtop.com]

It's great for hair, straw, christmas tree needles etc. its about 12" with a pointy end for hard to reach areas, It's bigger and stronger than ones designed for pets. Perfect.</HTML>
