What do you use to clean your seats?

Ok I posted about VynlX for the interior parts, man that stuff is awsome and works great!! Now I have to tackle the seats, I usually rent a steamcleaner at Ace hardware and it works great, but these seats are pretty dirty. What do you use to pretreat the stains? its not grease or anything just really dirty thats all from everyday ****. Is there some killer product like Vnylx but for seats n stuff?

GM Upholstry cleaner has worked good for me.
It's readily avaliable at any GM dealer.

If it were my car, and I ahve done this before. Get some citrus cleaner called "Quick 'N' Kleen" I have seen those products that claim to clean everything without hurting what you are trying to cleen. Well this stuff is it.

I would spray it on, (smells like oranges) scrub it into the seats, with a brush, and then take your steam vac and suck it up. Works like a charm, did it to a 91 Formula that I was selling, and it worked really well.

Gunk has something similar taht does not work as well.

If you want to try some e-mail me, and I will tell you where to get it.

Hey JucinGTA. I am afraid I can't offer any better ideas for seat cleaners than you already see. But I am interested in knowing what Vynlx is? You mention it is a cleaner that works awesome for interior pieces, and I saw DFIance also mentioned the stuff, but I have searched the archives and boards and cannot find your original posting. Can you tell me what it is, and where I might find it (a web site or whatever)?

Thanks man

Eric
