Pink lipstick on tan cloth seats

[Alansr]

Hey fellas
I have a customer tonight that has tan cloth seats with melted pink lipstick on her passenger seat. It is a 2011 Hyundai sonata.
What is the best way to clean it up? I'm thinkin a mild degreaser to break up the oil and a steamer to break it all lose.

^^ Yep like a diluted APC or something, i think a fabric cleaner might spread the product.

you can also treat it like a crayon, paper towel with an iron over it to melt into the paper,, the use your ideas,, but i have never tried it personally. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lGS8eX-nZug somthing like this.

or this female advice
To remove lipstick stains from fabric, dab the stain with denatured alcohol, rub dish washer detergent on the stain, and wash the fabric in cold water.

Try some Folex. I haven't found much it can't handle. Good luck and keep us updated!

Thanks for the advice fellas. After I seen the car it was more like a spot of lipstick and not a melted lipstick. A little degreaser and magic sponge took care of it in a few minutes. Then I used a steam vac to dry up any excess product so it didn't cause any discoloration.
I really appreciate all of your input.
I love that we all are willing to help each other and no one lets ego get in the way.
