With the LR3 in the garage and out of the elements we left the doors open for the night to let it air out. Bad call it still stank and now so did the whole garage. With it seeming dry enough to work on we took stock of what the interior looked like....

It was a bit rough in there so we rolled up our sleeves, broke out the warm soapy water and magic erasers and got to work.

after much scrubbing we were happy with how the leather looked. So we put the dehumidifier back inside and called it a day. We came back the next day and sprayed the carpets and undersides of the seats down with a vinegar water mixture to **** any lurking mold. Waited a bit and sprayed it again. Than treated the seats with Leather cleaner, and conditioner. We then called it a day again.

This was before the cleaner/conditioner. We added something really cool from the guys at Knightsbridge Overland next that I have been dying to see in the truck.

Holy Moldy. Is that a flood car, or is all that just from the sunroof drain tubes?
Honest question: Why 35's on a overland vehicle? On THAT particular overland vehicle?

 

[ArmyRover]

Sunroof and a pillars are my guess. It was stored and not checked on for a couple months that is the outcome. The pillars will be getting a proper sealing job and I have new roof drains but I may just make it a permanently closed sunroof

As for the 35's I have already done 33's so it's good to have goals. Also I go to a lot of Land Rover events and the wheeling sometimes is better with bigger tires. Admittedly I may come in at 34's and see how that goes. That bridge is a long way down the road though. The switch to EAS may cure my desire for bigger tires who knows

I would suggest getting your hands on an ozone generator.

It will **** everything - and also eliminate any odor - in places you can't reach with cleaning.

 

[ArmyRover]

I'll look into that.
