Whilst I was away the Mrs used the motor and her friend dropped a coke can on the seat!

The seats are the same as this:

It's a patch about dinner plate size and has soaked into the grey middle section on the base.

What's the best way to remove this?

I've only had hot water on it at the moment and it's not done much.

I'm thinking about using a steam cleaner on it?

I'll put a picture up in a few hours.

Autoglym interior shampoo got rid of all the stains on my headliner so should be able to solve your problem. Lesson learnt of don't give the car to the mrs

So your single now then?

Not sure on the coke mate but might be best just to bite the bullit and get it professionally cleaned.

I'm still in the process of selling the car. Although it's not on any site or anything at the moment, so don't want to spend to much.

I'll have a look at Autoglym first I think, failing that, a full clean from a professional might help the re-sale!

You need to wet and dry hoover. litterally it sprays the cloth wet, then sucks out the water and grime.

Steam cleaning is a waste of time.

Extraction is the only way with dirty seat fabrics.

Either get it done proffesionally, or rent out a machine, lots of DIY places rent out something called a Rug Doctor Hoover for about £40 inc the chemicals for an entire day

Thanks for that.

This is the stain at the moment. I'll look into seeing if a professional valet will do it cheaper than me renting the machine.

No big deal that, come out easily with a wet vacuum.
