Removing dog hair from car seats

As above really. My dad got another car yesterday but the previous owners dog has left quite a few hairs in the rear seats. He's used a lint roller and hoover to try and gather some up which has worked, but where the dog was a bulldog he had quite small fine hair that has bedded in quite well.

Has anyone got any ideas of something that can be picked up quickly to try and tackle it.

I've never tried it, but how about gaffer tape applied briefly to the seat, and then pulled off (like getting your legs waxed)?

You must have loads of tape in the dungeon.

^ That really - get some strong tape, wrap it round your hand and pat the seats to pull the hair off.

After having cats and dogs over the years, this works very well.

Tried that didn't work sadly.

Fire then, that's all there is left

Go a pet store and buy a dog hair removal brush.

common car? breakers for a 'new' set, doubt a set of cloth rear seats are much?

I'll suggest that too him

to save the effort you could just get the seats leather trimmed as they are

I wonder what else is in or on the seats, hair is possibly the least of your worries

I usually find things like this can be fixed with a hammer.

Dog hair (one of the stickiest things known to mankind) was responsible for the invention of Velcro ! Source:Wikipedia

De Mestral first conceptualized Velcro after returning from a hunting trip with his dog in the Alps in 1941.[3][4][5] After removing several of the burdock burrs (seeds) that kept sticking to his clothes and his dog's fur, he became curious as to how it worked.

As previously mentioned burn it with fire !

Get a dog the same colour as your seats.

Try putting on some marigolds and wiping them down, collecting all the fur together.

The brush style lint rollers tend to be much more effective on animal hair than the sticky ones in my experience.

Just beware if your using a sticky roller not to press to hard, could end up like this otherwise.....

you never know how much of the dog is there

I find having a car full of dog hairs, corn, oily rags and other detritus is great for deterring people asking "Could you just give me a lift to...." A car without dog hairs is a car owned by a callous man. Even when I had a showroom mint 18K miler Bentley the dogs came along in it, much to the previous owners horror

i see one of the life haks videos on you tube and they recon a window squeagy

I have a similar problem, bought a car who's previous owner transported the mutt in the boot and the fabric lining of the boot is awash with fine light dog hair. I've even had our brand new Dyson DC57 Animal (meant especially for animal hair and other random offering they leave in their wake) and even that wasn't cutting it.

I'm all ears to these suggestions as well, but alas I too fear fire is the only way ahead....

pet hair brush don't go mad these things can be expensive look for the JML one it works ok , and the vac in the other job done, wish id taken a pic of the pig sty I cleaned yesterday lol

I use a zoomgroom brush.

Great on the dog and really good at pulling hairs out of the car and sofa then hoovering up!
