Re: Clean seats help

spray on some cleaner. like a degreaser or soap. then power wash them. use a wet dry vac to get out some water. then lean them on the side of your house in the sun and let them dry COMPLETELY. or they will stink

thanks I think I wil try that. I was thinking spraying the hell out of them with spray-n-wash then steamer, but I'll try the power washer.

I dont want to use bleach cause the black strip in the center and the piping I would be afraid to bleach and I dont want to die thoes parts.

I am thinking if I get them looking good I am gonna put them in the truck cause they are a lot more comfterble then the ones I got now.
