Default how to clean cloth seats?

I bought my 2010 a few years back. The front cloth seats came faint stain rings in a couple of spots. They really show when it is humid outside. Well, this week I spilled a drink in the passenger seat and soaked it pretty good by the time I got to work. I soaked it up and poured a good bit of water on the seat and back to dilute the drink, then soaked it up the best I could. Now half of the seat cloth looks stained!

I've tried upholstery cleaner a couple of times before, but it didn't do much good, except to maybe move the stain line. How the heck do you clean this cloth?!

My '07 seats, never cleaned them, and they still look great since they are black. lol
Seriously though, I have reconditioned many vehicles interiors, the key is to:wash and vac at the same time. For serious stains, make a bucked of any fabric,carpet, or even laundry cleaner with hot water and use a carpet/upholstery cleaning brush(mine have a handle and about 6"round) stir up the water and ONLY use the suds to clean. Don't use to much water! Shop vac while you clean and leave the windows open until fully dry. A carpet cleaner with an upholstery rotary brush attachment works well too.

I bought one of these at Target (wife did for me). Thing works pretty darn nice at auto carpet, upholstery and small spots around the house.

Just roll one of those sticky rollers.

Vacuum when cleaning. Easy peasy.
