Mould on my seats!

[talkingcars]

I have a 4 pint milk container sliced in half and filled with rock salt in my MGF, works very well.

Every 2 or 3 months I just bring it into the house for 24 hours to dry out.

Thanks for all the replies, will pop down and get some salt tomorrow. Cheers

Right just put some very expensive rock salt (thats the only rock salt morrisons sells at over £2 a box!) in a plastic box and placed it on the arm rest so its slap bang in the middle of the car. Hopefully this'll do the trick!

So how can i tell when its saturated with water? And also, does leaving it in my house for about 24 hours work then? And then i can re-use the same salt??

Cheers

I got a 25kg bag from work for £4, use it for salting pavements when it snows.

Have you got white or pink salt, the pink gets darker when it's wet, I think the white will start to look a bit like it is sweating.

Either way I'd leave it in the car for a week and then bring it in, if you have a radiator heated floor this will speed up drying out.
