Hello,

First time poster, long time lurker.

I have '06 Volvo XC70 Ocean Race Edition with a special seats and combo of leather and fabric.
I have been using Lexol, cleaner and conditioner because of this forum input.
The fabric is what I have problem keeping clean.
It's not a common type seat fabric and I have not seen any other cars with it, it almost looks and feels like sail on a yacht.
It get's wet sometimes from rain, getting in and out and wet bags or back packs.
I can always get it perfect clean with a high temperature extracting vacuum BUT I would like to know if there is any product that I can use to prevent such ugly water stains:mad:

I would love to find something because that is the only part of my car that I can not keep up with...

My regards, Bart:thankyousign:

Hi Bart,

Outside of a product like Raggtopp Fabric Guard or a water-proof seat cover like sold for Jeeps, (convertibles), I don't know of a way to prevent this type of material from staining.


If you're a Volvo Fan, maybe send a letter with pictures or better, the link to this thread to the highest person up the food chain at Volvo and ask them,


Really? Seat material that stains?


Did your engineers take a nap?


:dunno:
 
Much appreciated Mike,

Thanks for welcome and help, will definitely get this product and follow up how it works out.:xyxthumbs:

:urtheman:

BTW, Should I isolate the fabric portion of the seat not to spray the leather, I will put some Lexol on it anyway before I will apply the Raggtop product.
 
Update:
It's been a month since I applied ragtopp spray and is working great.
NJ had few rainy days and being wet sitting on seats has no effect on them at allIm the MAN

Much thanks to U guys, Bart

:dblthumb2:

BTW, I also did outside with a clay bar, Mcguires swirlx and goldclass carnuba paste wax in is looking great:buffing:
