Two tips that will massively improve the process: Replace the water with vinegar and use a scrub brush to agitate it briefly before vacuuming. It could be improved even further if you smear a little bit of baking soda over the seat beforehand and have a second sprayer with plain water to saturate while vacuuming for a makeshift extractor.

[@chrisnotap]

Good tip!

[@brittanycurrency2941]

Good tip, but the smell of vinegar gone be on your seats

[@DominicI1]

[@cedricadaniels7983]

@@DominicI1 With the vinegar mixture, do you still use the dish soap? I'm thinking of giving this a try and I want to make sure I understand your advice.

[@DominicI1]

​@@cedricadaniels7983 Yes, I still used dish soap. The vinegar by itself can help dissolve certain minerals and make it easier for a stain to separate (especially if the stain has been there for a long time). The soap is equally important though, as it bonds to the oils and sticks to particles, giving the vacuum something to suction onto and pull out. Hope this helps!

Many people have a shop vac. You don't need a big one, you can get smaller ones. I have a small wet vac and that's what I use if for, other than a mess on the rug. You can get a small wet vac for 25 - 30 dollars, no need to spend 50 bucks for a big one.

[@jerrymatthew4394]

Another who are anglry about the canadians ? This video is very good, and it's surely the better way to keep the seat clean, my only doubt is about the soap, maybe it's better to used a soap made for car interior.

My suggestion is to begin using cold water for a few passes, then use hot water. Hot water will set some stains. Learned this working for a dry cleaner.

[@Inkling777]

Right. Hopefully, you've not bled on your seats, but if you have, hot water will set that blood stain. Use only cold water with it. I know. I used to work in a hospital. Lots of cold water will eliminate blood stains quite well.

[@robinforrest7680]

Blimey! This works for me! The seats on my 2001 VW T4 California Generation campervan were disgusting. Generation edition upholstery is pale green and grey. You only have to look hard at it to get a stain. I've tried all sorts of foam car upholstery cleaners over the last two years and all they did was spread the stain. So I used your method then turned on the engine, put the heated seat controls to max, switched on the diesel fuelled night heater at 30°C then closed all the doors and left it to run for 45mins. Worked like a dream. No more stains. I wish I'd known this when I had my T4 Generation Multivan. Many, many thanks for this. Now nice and clean and all ready for our forthcoming 3 week Scottish roadtrip.

[@sarahpeshoffdidier2774]

Just scrolling these comments to see if anyone used this method and it worked for them and wow, that upholstery sounds gorgeous. How unique.

[@digimon916]

This works. Its basically a cheaper homemade carpet cleaner. Its the same thing in concept, but the steam cleaner is just fancier: spray and vacuum button on the handle, sprayer is a nozzle exterior to and next to the vacuum end. U can also use a soft brush to work in/out the water before vacuuming it.

Also Pro tip. Deep stains will need multiple washes. I.E. wait until material is dry, repeat. When the material dries it pushes up dirt and whatnot, meaning the more cleans you do the more better the results will be.
