Default Cleaning upholstery seats

Whats a good solution or cleaner to use to clean these seats?

I've got white stain drops from a soda on the middle part of the seat thats between the thighs. Any way to clean this up?

Try a little water and a wet vacuum.

Volkswagon sells a cleaner Autoboun (spelling is close....the bottle is in my garage at home). Comes in a plastic container.....solution is yellow.

You mix it in different proportions with water depending on your use......I've taken many a white stain from my black cloth due the soda called Miller Lite!

White stain between the thighs.....hmmm.

Just use water. Get the seat a little wet and then dab it dry with paper towels. Works for me anyway. The paper towels draw up the stain.

Depeds on how long the stain has been there. I would use water and a towel if it recently happen. I have used portable carpet cleaner. It uses a warm solution will sucking up the stain.

I used something similar. P & S Rug and Upholstery Shampoo. Works will. You do the same, mix a certain proportion with water and use a sponge or something similar. Maybe use a little simple green with it.

I sprayed mine down with scotch guard protectant. You can use this to help protect the cloth from stains. They also sell a cleaner that you can use.

One part original Woolite and 10 parts water does great. Make it stronger if needed. Use one towel to rub in and a clean damp (wet is ok too) towel to get it all out. Air dry. Has a nice sent too, better than carpet cleaner IMO.

If you're serious about it, use this:

It works!
