Default Seat Cleaning tips?

Hey guys just curious to know if any of you have any suggestions on products that will clean the seats in our cars. Mine are a lil dirty and wasn't sure what would actually work, i used some stuff my gf's dad owns and it didn't do anything but make it worse lol. Not sure the name of the stuff i used but i think its more for cleaning carpets if that makes any difference at all. Anyway thanks guys!

I was CLEANING MY VIPERS (just wanted to throw that in there...) and I noticed that nothing I used was working.

I was using water and a paper towel.

What about "Simple Green". I've used this on my Chevy cloth seats and floor carpet. It took out ALL kinds of stuff.

I do car detailing for bigshotsin BarHarbor and the surrounding area in the summer time. I use Blue Croal brand upholstry cleaner but do NOT use the suplied brush! Spray on and let it foam and the using a mild "soft" knuckle brush gently use circular patern over the spot and repeat. After stains have been addressed go over the entire seat and let dry. Be sure to let dry completely or what ever may be on your clothes or shoes or even your skin will rub off on to your seats or carpet. I am sure I don't have to say this but be darn sure to thoroughly vacume and brush your seats and carpet first! And for car outer care use Mothers California car wash. Towel dry and then use Mothers scratch remover and an orbital buffer to evenly apply. do small areas at a time and then buff off. For an ultimate shine use the three step liquid wax system by Mothers but skip step one cuz the scratch remover does a better job. The second Step the glazein small areas and then the final wax and POW! You got one shiny sexy clean car! A foaming glass cleaner and a RainX followup will take care of glass. Apply RainX and let dry then with a clean dry terry cloth buff glass. If you have problems with your Black morror housing or trim by the windows and suck turning grey try Mothers Back to Black it works great! Sorry to use Mother plugs but I am a huge Mothers fan and use it regularly!

Thanks picklez! i used some Professional Resolve for carpets and upholstery, it worked really well at taking out the stains but after it dried you could tell where i used it, so what i'm going to do is pretty much spray down the whole seat and let it sit for a while then use the knuckle brush. Thanks for the tips I will use em!
