How to remove pet hair..

[mills3]

What is the best way to remove white pet hair from the interior? I'm currently working on a truck with dark interior, namely the floor and carpets that has white pet hair all over it. I can't seem to get it out/off with a Shop Vac. Any suggestions or tips?

I have a rubber brush that works great on pet hair. if you do not have the brush ( assuming you do not ) you can put a latex glove on your hands and wipe. scrape the hair into your vacuum and let it suck it up.

Thanks flatstick. I used a nylon brush, but it's not working. It's making me angry. I'll try the rubber glove trick. Heck at this point I'll try anything.

Try using a squeegee.

Th brush that I use is rubber and it creates a static charge that lifts the hair away from the carpet as it brings it to the surface. it has round bristles on one end and a flat side like a squeegee to round it all up. the latex glove will give you the same type of static buildup but will require a little more elbow grease. for me the key with the glove is to drag you hand from flat palm down to palm being 90 degrees .picture mimicking the action of broom bristles if that makes any sense. may not be as fast as using the rubber brush but I figured your are in a bind and should have latex gloves.

My best methods are: a rubber pet hair brush, a hand-held belt driven vacuum utilizing a roller brush, and a lint roller.

Sounds like you need it for a current client? The veterinarian I take my dogs to carries the rubber brushes. I've seen them at other places too but can't remember where. Otherwise you can get them cheaper online if you can wait.

The pet hair brush is good. Small strokes and always using the vacuum. Latex glove is another good one even using your air attachment to get the majority out first before trying one of the other options.

Guys, I can't stress the importance on a belt-driven roller brush like the one found in the 7amp version of the hand-held dirtdevils. The brushes driven by air; well I don't know about metro's because I've never used them. However, all the other OTC ones I found weak and ineffective. A big aslo here; Kirby sells the "Zip Brush" atttachment that will fit standard vacuum hoses. It is phenominal. Untill you have the Zip Brush, and/or a powerful roller brush, you ARE wasting a lot of time. Time is money, sometimes.
