    Worked for myself on my red Recaros, and on my black back Recaros in the EG.

    Ain't tried it on the black Recaros in the EK because I got them brand new...so should work :P

    AG interior shampoo or something like cleancar's interior cleaner, whichever one agitated with a brush.

    Nothing better that a decent carpet machine (not a wet vac!) used with the right shampoo and deodorizer, and left to dry using a fan. thats how i do mine, ill tell you the chemicals i use but no point in buying unless your doing a fair bit of it as they come in trade sizes only afaik.

    Heres a set of seats ive done for a friend, a few years of baby mess and milk :D

    This is with most of the heavy caked on stuff removed

    Finished

    The thing with seats is you want as much of the chemical/water out of the seat as possible and dry them using air flow not heat ;)


    Il; be doing my recaro next week if i get time ill take some shots, i tend to do mine once or twice a year

    I've used this stuff on my Recaro's and my mats and both have come up a treat!

    Mine have just stains on them , no caked in dirt or anything like a dirt build up over time, should all of the above be ok simply to get the stains out?

    once it only a surface stain you will be fine using them, just let the seat dry as much as possible

    Jaysis lads where are ye getting all of the stains from?


  • Registered Users Posts: 827 ✭✭✭Gregsor


    I find Autoglym works a treat too,more so on the smaller/fresh stains.

    Thankfully no big jobs have needed addressing to date :cool:.
