Cleaning Upholstery?

[megadyptes]

Just removed one of the kids car seat and found what appears to me a myriad of new life forms living underneath - no doubt the result of the collateral damage that occurs to foodstuffs when eaten by kids. A quick blast of Vanish and a scrub with a wet cloth has removed most of the offending mess but the material still has a stain that looks like the nippers have slaughtered a small animal in the back of the car. Anyone have good suggestions on how best to remove such a well entrenched stain?

That doesn't sound good, I am still tackling the mold under my car mat in the back seat, it will not go away!

I would have tried some Autoglym interior shampoo on it, I have used that before on my last car took me a few goes with it and some scrubbing with a microfibre towel.

Get a VAX machine. I use it on all the interiors as and when they get grubby.

may sound dull but...coke? fizz it up and let it soak in? (as long as its dark coloured carpet) should help remove it
