That thing will do the seats too.A buddy has a portable green machine cleaner that i'll do the carpet with. Any other suggestions?
Congrats on the addition. I have 3 and between them I was going nuts trying to clean the stains out on a weekly basis so on my prior 07 SE, leather was a sanity saver...lol When I traded for the Pro4x it had to have leather as well as my wife's car. Its so easy now but also understand the word budget now...lol Hope you get out.Trust me, I've fully considered going the leather route, but we just found out a week ago that we are about to be parents, so I don't think that's an expense I'm going to be able to put out at this point. I wish I had someone around to drop it off to and have it professionally done for a reasonable price, but on a quick search the closest i've found was about an hour drive or so. My wife volunteered to work on the seats once I brought them in the house, so i'm not worried about time spent. I just don't want it to be terribly noticeable. I'll probably try the oxy woolite stuff with the combo of that steam cleaner. I finally lifted the lid to the console today...I've got a nasty puddle of half dried coffee in there as well. So looks like i'll be kicking back with some homebrew, a movie, roll of paper towels, some all surface cleaner, and q tips cleaning that mess up.
You are going to make a mess out of your vehicle, its just a simple "spill" why are you complicating it with taking out things? What I will suggest is that you get interior steam cleaning done on your vehicle from a professional business like Detailxperts, take a look at there website they might have a franchise in your area. What steam cleaning does is (as it sounds) it uses steam to clean and as steam is on very high temp, normally most of the stains are taken out completely, and as its steams it goes and cleanse where nothing else can(tight spots). I don't know about others or if its a feature of steam cleaning but when I got my car steam cleaned from DetailXperts after a fishing trip (Yes the Mahi was great!) they were able to clear out all the smell the fish left there, your's is just "Coffee" I bet that will not be that hard.Hey all, I tried to search to see if this would be a repeat, and our search tool seems to bring back some rather useless things. Anyway...The other day I was running late. Had a cup of coffee made and realized I needed to get the heck out of the house. Ran out the door with open mug, set it on the center console, started the truck and then walked around to the mailbox to deposit a recent netfix rental. Came back around and jumped into the truck, while thinking of how great that cup o joe was gonna taste, and nailed it with my elbow. Coffee went all over the passenger seat, center console, some on the drivers seat, all over the carpet under the seats and about 1/4 of it got caught by the weathertechs in the backseat. Now with this being said and already getting tired of the coffee scent. What is the best approach at getting this crap out of the seats. I figure i'm in for them to be stained in one way or another. Whether it be the coffee itself or the cleaner. I'm going to pull the passenger seat completely out as well as the center console and bring them in the house. I was thinking i'd just use the carpet cleaner with the hand attachment and just go over them a couple times. A buddy has a portable green machine cleaner that i'll do the carpet with.
