dirty seats

[mistrall 0]

hi again - your going to cringe but being a fisherman and only having one car i have to transport the gear in the rado :( .

 

have noticed that the seats are getting a little mucky and wondered if they were easy to clean ie:take them out or just use a steamer (dont realy know how lol).

 

the outher alternative is to get them re-apolstered in anouther material , how much do you think it would cost its not leather its the grey later interior

many thanks , justin job

More and more companys do steam cleaning now (specifically for cars)

 

Then get some seat covers...

My mate got his front seats done for about £40 and they came up like new... I guess a whole interior would be about a ton...

Could try some Autoglym interior cleaner - my light grey carpets look like new since I cleaned them with it.

get in with an old hoover and some flash and hot water and scrubbing brush..

 

get the bruh soaking in hot water and flash all purpose( or carpet cleaner) then scrub everything like hell. get the seats soaked.

after doin each section hoover the excess water up..

 

then leave to dry with a window open a tad for a day or two

 

always worked for me!

Groom foaming upholstery cleaner is good too, best results come from vacuuming it off, most forecourt vacs can do this.

 

You can get it in Halfords around a fiver I think.

mistrall, strip them yourself and then put them in the wash! They came up really good for me.

 

Should take you around 20 minutes to get the covers off per seat.

 

Make sure you have some good wire cutters and then heavy duty cable ties to replace the clips with. (your know what i mean if you do it!)

 

Ahh tumble drier safe too!!!

do i have to take out the seats?

i would have thought so, but taking out the seats takes about 5minutes each. But i expect taking the covers off takes a while :/

mistrall, Yeh take the seats out.. 5 minutes each per seat. Then should take around 20 minutes to strip a seat once your going. Not a hard task.

 

I tried washing them in the car, but I water logged the form and it took ages to dry properly. This totaly avoids that.

 

If your abit worried about doing it.. start on the rear bench on the smaller parts-arm rest etc, however be warned once you start you cant stop lol
