My new money pit

[Tin-Can]

You better put plastic down so yo dont get the carpet dirdy and slimy.

I was going to see about getting some outdoor carpet and putting it over the other carpet. It's in pristine condition I don't want to get it all slimy.

   Does that carpet snap in or is it fixed down semi permanent ?  If it snaps down, just take it up, roll it up and store it somewhere cool and dry.  Get some indoor / outdoor or marine grade carpet that you can cut to same size & shape using original as pattern. Just putting indoor / outdoor carpet on top of that original can sometimes act as a really nice slip & slide.
