Hey folks,

the other day while i was driving home, I spilled some ceviche juice on my front passenger seat. the spill wasn't huge (maybe the size of a dollar bill all together), but the spill on the seat has caused an odor to linger in the cabin. i tried to soak up the spill with a cloth and then tried to clean the seat with a "sudless cleaner", but the smell is still there.

anybody have any idea what else I can try to do? thanks!

 

My GF spilled a 40oz iced coffee in my car, I had no rags or anything so until I cleaned it (which was too late) it sat there between my seats,shift boot, and floor.... What I did was I used a cleaning vac and let the windows down for a few days nights... It worked ready well

 

I spilled gas and starbucks on my seats and used a mixture of simple green and water and then soak the seats and soak it back up with a shopvac or towels. I found that the towels and putting my weight on them took out more moisture than the shopvac. I washed my seats 3 times in one day to get it out. Let them sit and dry with the windows down or cracked depending on your neighborhood while you wait to wash them again.

 

I didn't even think to use a vacuum or a simple green!!! DOH!!

I think Ill try using a mixture of simple green and water and vacuum it up after it has soaked for a while. With the mixture, should i just dab the seat with the mixture or should i really soak the seat with a cloth or a sponge, let it sit for a few minutes and then soak it back up with a towel or vacuum?

Thanks for the suggestions!

 

My girlfriend and I where on a drive over the weekend and she yelled "oh isht!"

I asked what and she said she spilled a cup of coffee. I asked if she got any on my seats and she did not say anything so I asked again. She yelled at me "NO I DID NOT GET ANY COFFEE ON YOUR EFFING SEATS!"

It all went in her lap, spose my first question should have been are you ok or something.

 

Awesome!

 

LOL!

Gotta protect dem seats!!!

 

I soaked them and used just my hand to swirl it around and applied pressure to get it deep into the seat without using a towel so it didnt get soaked up yet, then let it sit for a few minutes and dry it

 

OR... pull the seat out of the car, take the cover off the seat and clean it. I put my bugeye seat covers in the washing machine just like I do with my sparco seat cover.

It only takes 4 bolts and about 20 minutes of effort.

 

Sounds a lot easier than it looked when I researched it.. I thought about going that route when I had to clean them.
