So I had a client the other day that had tan cloth seats. I used folex, meguiers APC , and bissel spot treatment just because I had it and nothing worked. The seats were basically black from years of never being cleaned. What else do you guys use to clean seats?? The car was a Saturn vue if that matters but just looking for something to use in the future, oh and I also tried steaming as well.
 
You may have set the stains with that combination. Are you using steam or hot extraction?
 
I have a drill brush I use, I also tried steam, started with folex, then my other apc and then steam.
 
That is about what I use. If the seats were that bad then there was probably nothing you could have done that would be reasonably priced. Sometimes a degreaser that is orange works a little better than APC does.
 
It sat for about 5 mins the first pass and then 15 or so the second
 
I took pics but can't find them, and I don't have an extractor yet
 
I used a Tornador Black on light beige Hyundai Santa Fe sests with 10:1 APC. Turned out very nice. Car is 7 years old and 130,000 moles. Had pizza grease on them. Took all the grim and most of the grease out. Very happy with the results.
 
Do you have any idea what the stain may have been? This is always the best approach when dealing with stains. Ask the customer, chances are they will have some clue as to what it may be.
 
No, she said it's just from normal sitting, they have never been cleaned.
 
What would you use to remove water stains from the seats?
