Red Seats Stain/Mark

[Pe0plez]

Hey guys, I've had the car only about 2 weeks and there's already a small black mark appearing on the driver's side seat. I've tried doing one cleaning with some sonar alcantara cleaner and a brush but it didnt come out. Anyone have any suggestions on removing this? Not sure what its from, the car wqs at a tint/ppf shop for a week getting work done.

I put a wrench on my seat awhile ago not realizing there was a bit of grime on it. Was able to get it out using one of my suede cleaners I use for my shoes. Maybe it'll work for you too.

Try P&S Terminator Enzyme Spot & Stain. Like all carpet or leather cleaners, test an inconspicuous spot for color fastness before proceeding. That stain doesn't look like it's too difficult to lift. It's likely dirt or grease/oil. Be careful with the fabric so as to not change the appearance and/or texture as you work the stain out.

This is why temporary car covers are a worthwhile purchase. You have a glut of options to choose from at varying price points. It's a good practice to cover your seats whenever you take the car for service at the dealership, tire shop, ppf/tint, sound shop, etc. If you don't want to invest in a proper cover, you can else opt for disposable plastic seat covers some dealerships use. Good luck and let us know how this works out for you.

Maybe that little eraser would work, I could give this a try.

Maybe I'll have to resort to this if the other eraser doesn't work. Just gonna add to my collection of cleaning materials. I'll have to for sure look into some seat covers. I usually do all the work on my own, but the car came with 5 free oil changes that I might as well use so might be worth it.

I've been using Jason Markk cleaner for years, great stuff.

If you can get a steamer with some suede cleaner, it'll work perfectly

Any luck in removing the stain?

I got it 99% of the way out, but then covered the seats with the HypeR red suede seat covers so you 100% can't see it.
