Upholstery cleaning

[eclassbounder]

Probably a very basic question - but here goes. What is the best way to clean the cloth seat upholstery and carpets ?- besides having it done by a valet firm. Any particular shampoos / cleaners to use?

easy

get the poles to do it in your town centre

Seen examples of good results from autoglym products, can't remember the exact name, maybe upholstery shampoo, they also do a specific stain remover and foaming spray though I don't know how well these work.

I keep a cheapie Carsoft foam cleaner with brushes built into the lid handy in my car to get rid of any marks or spills as soon as I notice them (mushroom interior), works okay and seems to be on sale everywhere (tescos, halfords etc.). For a proper clean I'd use the autoglym.

Try the spray foam type can upholstery and carpet cleaner which you can soak up with a clean white cloth. Works well.

Autoglym are good. And Merc do their own cleaners: good too.

Anyone know the best way to get chocolate (been sat on) off cloth seats, please?

Once took the covers off a car and machine washed them on cold setting, came out lovely.
