Seat cleaning

[blacksihatch]

On my passenger seat I have a nice white colored stain in the middle of the seat and on the black suede part on the side, which looks nasty. Any recommendations on what to use to clean this besides renting a steam cleaner.

Thanks

Armor All interior cleaning wipes?

or

Armor All upholstery cleaning wipes?


Very scary if you are using the regular old armor all interior shit... Id never put that on my seats.

The suede part of our seats gets dirty way too easy... I will have to try the Armor All wipes for upholstery.

Anyone know if Honda changed the material for the 2004 model? The one in the 2002 is crap IMO.

Our seats arent suede, their some similar matieral thats more durable (supposedly).

Just using the searching thread for cleaning seats and I came across this old thread. I think our seats are alcantra but I can never find cleaners for alcantra, is there another name for it? im seeing alot of people saying suede.
Also what kinds of specific cleaners have you guys used cause i want to clean my seats.

first, our seats are a fake suede called alcantara; second, the best way ive heard to clean them is with a steam cleaner. i usually use a wet rag and a blow dryer, works really good!

haha! homemade steam vac FTW! seems like it would work just as good as a steam vac too...im gonna have to try that out next time I clean the interior.

hell yeah, im ghetto like that! just make sure to dry them good and use like a hairbrush to prevent the material from matting down

warm water and a rag. then start scrubbing.

try getting whiskey/coke mix out of your seats... 2 years and its still not all gone... (The sad part is that I wasn't the one who spilled it... I was the DD)

I'l try out the warm towel method and scrub cause I sorta dont wanna pay for a steam cleaner just to clean my seats. I would if they were tainted lol

I just use oxyclean upholstery cleaner. once i went through some highwater and the car smelled like mildew. took it to the car wash and they cleaned it very well.
