Upholstery seats

Just wondering, what product is best for cleaning my standard upholstery seats? theyre a bit muggy in a few bits and it bugs me on a sunny day lol. I've seen plenty of products out there but i figured i'd ask some well knowledged people
Cheers guys

Am I a light sleeper or a heavy sleeper? Well that depends on how much I've had to drink...

Re: Upholstery seats
I guess there are loads of products out there but I get decent results from using Fairy Liquid and clean water with a stiff brush. The Fairy Liquid helps too if you need to get wet emulsion out of sofas. haha I learned this when I gave my bro a hand to paint his living room!

Re: Upholstery seats
I dont like using stiff brushes i have a habit of making the seats bobble, a carpet shampooer is ideal and its one of those things that someone will have stashed away somewhere.

Toying of using some diluted Vanish or Daz & a sponge on mine to see what happens.
Re: Upholstery seats
So many cleaning products out there these days and some are crazy prices
Re: Upholstery seats
A bottle of Stardrops (£1 per litre and you only need a few drops), hot water you and a towel or a couple of MF's to soak it up.
You can also use a wet vac if you have one.
I wouldn't bother with car upholstery cleaners as they can get expensive if you get carried away...

Re: Upholstery seats
vanish spray on stuff, or even autoglym upholstery cleaner, both good depending on how 'soiled' your seats are

Re: Upholstery seats
A steam cleaner works a treat and all you need is water for the steam cleaner lol
Its what I used on my old astra an it brought the seats up fantastically looked almost new! I would recommend doing it on a hot day though so you can air the car at the same time but help dry them out quicker unless you have a wet vac which I would imagine will also help a lot with cleaning/drying!
