Yes, I'm an idiot. Cross threaded the cap and the result was gatorade into all the little holes in my leather on an 06 touring.
I soaked up as much as I could, but I really think I need to uncover the seat or what ever to clean out the padding really well.
And suggestions on what I should do? Or a link to a tutorial on getting the leather off the seat? (I'm thinking this is what I need to do, but if not please let me know!)
Regards,
Steve

use a portable steamer and dab it with a dry cloth. i wouldnt take the cover off. you'll never get it back on! the steam should break it up enough so you can soak it into a towel.
p.s. was it fruit punch?

Don't take off cover, you might need professional to put them back ( if you want OEM fit)
well i had a gum stick on my leather seat before. ( not on 350z, was on Acura)
so i bought a zippo gas ( refill from walmart ) it worked for me. it came out really clean.
put gas on clean towel and wipe it
or..
try go to car wash place.
