      Cleaning stains on seats

      My driver side seat has collected a few to many coffee spills and I'm looking for something to clean it with. I wanna get something that won't stain the seat in the process of trying to get the original stain out if you know what I mean. Some fabrics are temperamental. Also have some red nail polish on back seat that has been there since I bought the car. It needs to go as well. Need someone to send me in the right direction on what cleaner to buy

      I've always just used lots of soapy water immediately followed by a shop vac to shampoo seats in my car. Sometimes you have to do a couple of lather, rinse, vac & repeats to get it clean. Sometimes you need a Spray 9 or Fantastic or Mean Green type of spray cleaner as well.

      I've never tried any of the specialized upholstery-specific stuff. I've always had great results with the above.

      I'll have to give it a shot. Anything will be better than how the seats look now

      A lot of the carpet cleaner stuff works well, like Resolve. The Above is good advice just using soap and water. Here is an article on nail polish.
