    Try washing powder and water, start with a small amount.

    I wonder would steam cleaning help dissolve the stains and remove them? Read up on steam cleaning and see if it would be of help.

    Yeah tried washing powder but didn't shift it,think its been on there that long it'll take a few goes.

    never used but maybe meguiars super degreser? but test it on fabric before use

    come to cork, will sort it with stain removers and extraction machine ;)

    I doubt you will have much success in getting it right but you will need a degreaser and wet vac of some sort.

    Depending on the seats of course, test a small area first and go from there but might be cheaper getting one from a breakers yard :(

    Off topic: why was there a dirty chip pan on the front seat of a car?

    On topic: if you are sticking to things around the house then washing liquid and water, or maybe vanish or another stain remover if you have any.

    But i think a dedicated spray or foam and then a wet/dry vac is probably the best option if you have no luck with household products.
