I'm going to refrain from the obligatory sex-joke here.



Every so often, I go and rent a rug doctor and give my car a complete once over with the apholstry attachments. It takes some time (couple hours to do it right) but it really gets dirt out of the seats.

You may also want to try a cleaner called "Tuff Stuff". It works great on interior parts. Or try your local full service car wash and ask them if they could steam clean it for you. T

Yeah its on the seat belt,its gotta be paint or whiteout. Hey badandy247, would you like to know how to put your sig pic in your signature instead of having to attach it to each post? Go to here https://www.thirdgen.org/techbb2/sho...hreadid=153424 follow these steps on how to remote link your pic and put that in your sig collum in your profile, you need to go to your usercp icon thats on the top of the page.

thanx for the info on the attachments i couldn't figure that one out i looked at it for like an hour trying to do that too

with the goof off stuff you can get it at home depot in the paint section but try it on another area on maybe your back seatbelt or somewhere inconspicuous like that an make sure it won't damage the color of the webbing before trying it on the highly visible front webbing

good luck!

FYI

When you guys shampoo the interiors, make sure you pull out the seats. Makes things easy.
