RUG.

that hurricane in florida flooded my parents basement here in NC. non stop rain, at least 4-6 inches in the basement.

big screen HDTV is gone, 2 big leather couches may be saved, computer and stuff gone, luckily we saved the picture albums, but the whole ground is tile and probably gone.

2 huge persian carpets, soaking wet. worth much much more than my car is, my brother and i had to put them somewhere.

 

wow sorry to see you lose all that stuff, glad to see no water in the garage or on those rugs good save

 

well the rugs were soaked. we are just hoping we can save them. the dye has ran off a bit. im curious on how the car will look after i take the rugs off

 

that sucks.

My 2 year old thru a toy in the toilet last week and flooded half the house with like 2 " of water.. noth9ing compared to your problem though.

How much are those carpets worth? get those damn ugly things off your car!!!!!!!!!! your soakin it

 

holly ****

so those 2 carpets are worth more than your car?
damn

 

fear not -- all is not lost! the Bud Light banner is still entact!

The rug dye shouldn't have any long term effect on a clear coated paint surface, and the rugs should dry out just fine (assuming there isn't a crazy smell, in which case dry cleaning or some other method might be needed).

How deep did the water get? You might consider getting some cheap folding tables or penny crates (plastic milk crates) at Staples, Costco, or Sams and putting your computers on it.

 

sad

 

were you on vacation or somethin?

hope you salvage most of your stuff buddy

Yeah. The car can't fly, after all.

 

They will be ok we have had some worse than that and they still look nice. The secret is to make air move on both sides at the same time if you leave them flat on something " like your R " a type of fungus will move in fast... we used a bunch of jack standa and a huge can of any anti fungus stuff..

 

Oh jack stands and big pvc pipe like a ladder under them so they did not have holes..
Then a big fan or box fan will work..

 

sucks bout the flood, but now you ahve a Type Rug!

 

Thank god you saved those rugs. Now take them to the track, Aladdin.

 

haha, you guys are too much.

we got the whole downstairs pretty much dry. but im sure its worse that it looks with the water damage. we havnt tried to turn anything on yet.

 

Damn Koroush, sorry to hear. We found out that a buddy's neighbor got flooded out as well. Thankfully we didn't have anything but a shitty drive to work for Mrs. Splat, and a *really* shitty drive home from Expo 6 for me.

 

this whole week has been crappy.

got my civic broken into on sunday night. and now this. and the canes lost tonight.

sorry to hear that. hope this will cheer you up...

civic broken into on sunday night...$10 (assuming you only lost an air freshner)
canes losing...$100 (assuming you bet that much)
2 wet persian rugs...$1,000,000 (assuming again)
winning $2 from the scratcher to bring a smile in the midst of a bad week...PRICELESS!

 

I got some rugs from costco that look the same for like 200 bucks
