Fabric Stain - I made I worse!!

[Casa1862]

I managed to get some spots of autoglym rubber and vinyl care on the seats of my daughter’s car while cleaning it. In my attempt to remove the stains I brushed some fabric cleaner on the small stain, the seat was near new and I’ve made it ten times worse, it more noticeable now that’s it’s dry. Anything I can do to get it back to how it was without making it even worse! Pictures attached, it’s a Hyundai i20 if it matters.

Have you looked in the handbook, or phoned a dealer, emailed the companies (Hyundai, and Autoglym)?

It just seems to be like a water mark, dealer will just put it to a detailer, I was hoping to do it myself or get a pro to do it.

Think getting a pro seems like the best idea.

Any idea how much that should cost, it's only that front seat. I'm not even too worried about the slightly darker marks I was originally trying to take out, just the water made worse by me. I'm based around the Hertfordshire/Bedfordshire area.

Wound trying to clean (wetting) the whole pad even it out or possibly make it worse still?

Might be worth popping into your local Motor spares shop and asking if they have anything for removing water stains first.

Probably only cost a few £'s and shouldn't take more than a few minutes.

I find you have to do the whole pad otherwise you get a tide mark - but in your case it looks like the original spots are still there.

I'd be wary of getting it too wet in case you crinkle the fabric.

Anyone based around Hitchin, Stevenage, Bedford who could do this?

Find a local detailer with an extractor.

Wet and dry vac, spot carpet cleaner and it will be removed.
