getting dried in emulsion from drivers seat

blacksmith105

Went to see a car lst nite and it had dried in emulsion on the drivers seat , owner who was selling the car was very apologetic and said it was his young fella who spilled the paint on the seat by accident

Apart from that the Car is A1 and good price ,anyone any ideas on how to remove dried in yellow emulsion from car seat fabric sorry not leather

Emulsion's water soluble, isn't it? Might it just shampoo out?

I'm just joking with you. I had some funny stains on the passenger seat of my first car, and they certainly weren't emulsion paint - if you know what I mean ;)

As Anan1 said, Emulsion should be water soluble and will probably come out with an upholstery shampoo.

If it's gloss then it's going to take a lot more than water and soap. Wouldn't know what to use there without wrecking the seats.

if by chance its oil based paint some white spirits on a cotton cloth and give it a good hard rub with it

kasper

also some carpet shampoo to clear off the white spirits

emulsion is definitely water soluble. if it doesn't come off easy then as suggested a bit of spirits, or even petrol if you want, will get it off. I'd get the owner to do it IIWY

Best to remove dried emulsion on seat is methalated spirits as it dissolves the paint, then warm soapy water to finish. white spirit or just water are useless...........
