Cleaning seats/ door trims

What's the best way to clean seats and door trims? Mine are looking gross. I did some searching and people have had good results with a high pressure water cleaner as stupid as that sounds. They are old abit old anyway and just want to get the dirt out.

I use a carpet cleaner with the small attactment similar to companies that clean your sofa. Really deep clean and no rubbing or scrubbing the seats so it dose not go fluffly or bobbly. The small shampoo comes withwith the cleaner and mix it with warm water amazing results. My dad works in a tool hire shop so get it free

Cheers johnny, I'll give something like that a go first, saves having to take the door trims off etc. Did you have to use a lot of water, like give it a proper soaking?

I used a WetVac... Came up a treat

You dont want to hear how i do it lol came up a treat but i wouldnt recomend it

Spill the beans so to speak toast ?

No woody its a fine mist as you pull the trigger then it hoovers/vacs it. Dont soak the door cards mate it wont end well

1. remove interior and chuck in back garden
2. get garden hose and soak  gently blast it
3. squirt what ever the misses washes the clothes over it
4. scrub in to lather
5. blast of with garden hose
6. leave to dry for a day!
7. realise vinyl on door cards has started to lift
8. remove vinyl
9. get door cards flocked to match dash
10. stand back and realise a wet and dry vac may have been cheaper!    but overall  looks good if not quite original.

thats about it and now the car smells persil fresh  

Cheaper than my effort with door cards

think i went to bobs school of valeting

Haha at least I know which way won't work now

Now come to think about it maybe Ill get the door cards flocked and I'll just clean the seat.

Ok pics don't really justice but this is their condition at the moment. Going to clean them this weekend and see how they come up

You can lend carpet cleaners from sainsburys etc, i used one and the results were really good. Anyways, have a look at the link - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dNMAmhGrxR8

Haha yeah man! Im guessing that you never seen mighty car mods?

Nah I haven't actually, I'll need to check it out!

Ohhh dude! youre from australia too! i thought that every car guy in australia knew mighty car mods check out their how to buy a car from japan etc! pure awesomeness

Out of curiosity thought Id try a foam cleaner from the auto shop, made a difference especially on the door trims but going to get them properly steamed cleaned.

Mighty mods is so funny. I was amazed when they rolling roadbed car with different air filters and if I recall paper one was no worse than expensive after market ones

Ive been watching some their the videos lately, there is some pretty cool stuff they have done

Yeah mighty car mods are great, plenty of cool videos on their channel. I like the video where they 'pimped' out the Civic proper rice style defo worth checking out haha
