  • Recurring seat stain

    Anyone know how to get a damned stubborn stain out of a black cloth front seat? This staining was on my car when I bought it, when I picked it up and it was detailed it went away for a week or so, then could be seen again. In my spring cleaning I attacked my seats with three different cleaners. They looked great for a week again. Now the stain is back!

    Argh!

    Any ideas?

    diapers?? Ok, that was tasteless....The black cloth is hard to clean, have you tried an actual upholstry cleaner, or steam cleaner??

        I've used both. (I knew there'd be some comments. Particularly if I was to add it's a bit of a whiteish stain).

            Open the seat up, remove the crack cocaine, then try cleaning the seat.

            And STOP DEALING!!

              It should come in an aerosol can, and it evaporates quickly so there is no need to blot it out.

                        Brake cleaner is nasty nasty stuff. It has stuff like Xylene and Toluene in it.

                        Brake cleaner could clean the slut off my ex-wife!

                        Now THAT is a tough job.

                              I said brake cleaner.
