I have also used Woolite with good success.... I'd like to find something to spray or brush on that would seal the 'carpet' and/or help stop the 'shedding' of the fine particles. For now, I lightly vacuum it, being careful not to suck it off the walls and ceiling!I have used Resolve carpet cleaner in a spray bottle.

Hi Deadrise, I plan to do some experimenting this winter.... I welcome suggestions and advice from ClassisParker folks. I thought I'd first try a clear, spray lacquer or varnish on some similar carpet samples'. I'd like to run by the Parker factory (Only a 4 hour round-trip for me) and see if I can purchase some of their carpet scraps... Or I'd go directly to their supplier if anyone knows who that is?Andy I have been thinking along the same lines, let us know if you come up with anything>
Hi WarrenD, Thank you! If I can't get some scraps to experiment with, I'll see if I can order a small 'experimental' amount from J&J....I found a matching carpet online. The place is called J&J auto fabrics. The material is called hull liner and the color is Sand Blend.
I hope you'll post photos of your progress. With so many Parker owners resorting to this, seeing others progress is very helpful. There are many Parker owners who too have replaced all the 'carpet'. I wonder if this is common on other boat brands? I won't say I'd never replace ours, but because of all the work involved it will be a last resort.Right now I am in the process of replacing ALL the carpet in my wheelhouse and v-berth of my 2820.
