It's not the shampoo so much as the machine. Have you got a wet and dry vacuum?

On mine i just spray sh*t loads of AG interior shampoo onto the mates then hose them down. Hang up to dry for about 4 weeks and hey presto, good as new.

p.s. I was only joking bout 4 weeks

my brother used to put his in the washing machine on a cool wash so maybe worth a try.

bear in mind it may take several attempts to bring the matts back as the amount of dirt trapped in them
