Keeping the center 20% clean

I have the 40/20/40 front steam in my screw. I normally rest my arm on the center while I'm driving, and it is starting to look a bit dirty. Has anyone found a good neoprene (or similar) cover to put over it? Thanks!

Where I go to school there is a white stx I park next to. He has the superhides camo seat cover made by Marathon. As part of the covers, he got one for the center console. Fits the console perfectly from what I can tell looking through the windows. Pretty sure its neoprene too.

Bought canvas seat covers off of E bay, comes with center console cover, when it gets dirty just throw in the wash!

I don't know how it would do for normal maintenance, but OxyClean sure did the number for me when the wife sloshed a diet coke on the center.

My fix might be a little ghetto....but it works for me.

I work as an aircraft mechanic, I get dirty. I wanted something I can easily clean. I bought two large black bath towels and one hand towel. Works well, clean easily, easy install and removal. I got $10 plus tax into it.

I'm so glad you posted that faa, thats what I do but didnt want to admit it. I bought a tan dish towel that is the exact same size and color of my lariat console lid. Keeps the dirt and elbow grease off the vinyl. Just wash it every once in a while.

Dunno about the simple green

I used my Hoover carpet steam cleaner, worked pretty good, but I had to do it monthly.
I finally fixed it by putting in leather. That's easy to clean, doesn't stain.
