Motors Advice for cleaning a car seat

About 2 weeks after I bought my car me and a friend went to another friends house to go in his swimming pool, upon return my friend (as usual) never bothered to dry himself properly and as a result he has left a nasty stain on my passenger seat. It's not leather but rather some sort of material which isn't waterproof.

Here is the stain:


I have tried several stain removers but they have only removed the white marks left by the chlorine in the pool, I'm still left with a nasty black blob, any ideas on how to get rid of it, if it needs be I will pay for professional cleaning but where??

 

Try a steam cleaner and see if this works, if not, try the yellow pages for a detailing company or take it to a pro valeters.

 

have you tried 1001 carpet cleaner, its done wonders for me in the past

 

Have you tried a firm scrub with a clothes brush?

 

Hmm, not sure if that is viable for the material and sponge underneath it, might ask my dad to see what he says too. As for valeters, I was hoping for this as a last resort.

Hmm, thanks for that. I guess Sainsburys would sell them? Might take a look tomorrow.

First thing I tried, sorta made it worse although it got rid of the white patches made by the chlorine (I guess its the chlorine anyway).

 

yeh at finboz says.. try 1001 carpet cleaner.... its worked on everything ive ever tried......
could phone the valeters and ask them what they would use?

 

Go to the local-big-autofactors, they should have something suitable, I used to have a car upholstery cleaner that sprayed out a foam, and had a brush ontop of the can aswell .

 

1001 carpet cleaner is fantastic for car seats, it's best to take the seat out the car to do it though.
