What's the best 'L' seat cleaner?
I was wanting to clean my seats, and was wondering what's the best cleaner to do it with? My seats are not filthy dirty but they could use a cleaning. Were would be the best place to get seat covers, and what is the price for the ones that you can get the Lightning or the SVT logo on them?
Last weekend I was doing the super-duper wash, wax and interior detail to my L. She was overdue and it was 72* outside, so I went to work.
Well, my shop vac had some grease or undercoating on the hose and it ended up rubbing onto the side of my seat, right on the light grey suede substitute.
Figuring that it looked worse than it would if I tried to clean it, I used a squirt of my Armor-All upholstery cleaner on a brand new rag. After I scrubbed it out, I used the shop vac on the spot until it looked to be almost dry.
I continued to vacuum and clean the interior and by the time I was finished, the spot had dried and was 100% invisible.
So, I don't know if Armor-All would tell you to use it, but I did with great success.
As far as a general cleaning, I would think a very mild soap & water mix, vacuumed off right after the scrubbing is complete, would not be detrimental to the seat material at all.
This would probably be a good question for RockPick, detailing master extraordinaire !!!
