I need to separate the thick underpad from my carpet floor is making them rust I just repaired and painted 2 coats
the carpets underpad feel wet
And I just want to know how to separate the underpad without ripping the carpet
the moist areas are passenger and driver legs well
ty

 

Um, have to ask... WHY are they wet? The carpet is not making it wet, water is coming from somewhere. Do you have a heater core leaking, or? Fix the leak and let the carpet dry, then fix the rust issue. Or destroy your carpet, I dunno.

 

my carpets are flawless black
my whole intetior is flawless and I vacume my car ever week and I clean everything
the heatcore was charged 20 years ago
it doesn't loose coolant or anything.
I want to take the underpad out
just the foot area tell me how

 

Your water leak situation isn't so flawless. It'll continue to rust if you don't fix that.

 

Then where is it leaking water in
hmmmmm

 

You'll have to do water leak tests to find out..

 

how ??

 

Same way you'd find a leak in anything exposed to the weather.

By pouring water all over the car and looking around and finding where it comes in.

You'll probably find it's the T-top rubber, like most all cars that have them.

See page 14, assuming it's from the t-tops. Best method is to wait for it to rain hard, sit inside the car, and look for where the water's coming in. Remove trim pieces if you need a better look. You can also sit inside the car and have a helper spray the car with a water hose, but I find this isn't as good of a test as none of these cars are 100% waterproof, and it's easy to force water in with hose to a spot that would not normally leak under hard rain.

 

Of all the leaky T-tops i have came across, they always seemed to soak the rear seats/floor/sail panel area. If this is where your water seems to be on your floor, I would check as the others have suggested. If the water is indeed in the front like I thought you had meant, I would definitely check the heater core under your dash. When these leak the water goes straight down in the area I though you were describing, and it is easy enough to get to and check. Wet front floors is a very common tell tale sign, especially on the passenger side. Hope this helped.
