I was wondering whats the best way to clean the seats my passenger seat has a drink spilt on it and its marked it, now my mates have said about steam cleaning but ive heard this dulls the colour withing the fabric?

Im also asking because i might be able to snap up a 6n2 but again has some marks on that id like to clean up and make mint...

Steam cleaning shouldn't dull the seats should do quite the opposite, either that or try water with washing up liquid or a washing detergent(eg, aerial) in a mild dosage.

Only thing ive thought about it how would i go about drying it with out getting drying stains?

Dont use to much water when mixed with soap or detergent as it will get deeply absorbed, then use a wet cloth which should remove or spread the chemicals used without the cause of drying up patched, its all gently and carefully done not in huge splash wods which I find best, without causing any wet drying up patches after, if that makes sense.

Ill prob bat with steam cleaning, just wonder where or how much a steam clean/cleaner will cost?

Check ebay or contact Alex Perkins, think he purchased one recently, his your best bet

couple of options, buy a George carpet cleaner, like i did had to do, bought mine for doing the house carpets, or drive over to me and i'll do them for you. i'm in Aldershot.

Buy Autoglym hi foam interior. It's spray foam, and really good. Another good one is from turtle wax, which comes with a top mounted brush. both good products.

Bascially you spray it on and brush it in, then wait for it to dry. you often need to wash the whole seat at a time, for you'll notice where you have and have not cleaned
