Hi guys first time poster here.
Wondering if you guys have an ideas about how to remove water marks from seats. I currently have an 02 renault clio and when i brought it there were water marks on the seat. Is there a special cleaner you guys recommend or just hot soapy water?
Cheers

I tried some Turtle Wax stuff and was a load of rubbish. I followed exactly what it said on the bottle and a didnt make any difference.

In the end I asked a mate in the valeting trade and within 5 mins they were like new.

oh right cool so it might be worth just taking it somewhere? I'm wondering if I try using water/or another product it might just make larger water marks?

Ive used the autoglym interior shampoo and got great results. The OH has a Clio and its st pit due to having a horse!

If you don't mind scrubbing buy the shampoo but if not get it valeted.

Squirt some interior shampoo over the entire seat squab. If you don't cover the whole area the clean patch will look worse than the stain.

Scrub the area with a scrubbing brush. Wipe off with a clean chamios leather.

Allow to dry.

Alternatively, remove teh seat from the car. Spray truckwash liberally over it. scrub in and jetwaash out.
