What\u2019s the best way to clean your seats?<\/h2>\n
\n

Leather<\/h3>\n

When cleaning leather, it is a good idea to use a microfiber cloth and a cleaner designed for leather seats or a mild detergent diluted with water. Lather on the cleaner, and then remove it gently with a damp cloth without using much water, especially if the seats are ventilated. You can then buff the area gently to clean it off.<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

Cloth<\/h3>\n

One of the best solutions for cleaning cloth seating in a car is a mix of vinegar, dish soap and water. With a hard-bristled brush you can scrub the stained or dirty area and then let it sit for a bit. Later, you can rinse the area and then dry it with a towel. For less intense stains, a damp cloth with a little cleaner should be fine to get the stain off.<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

Vinyl<\/h3>\n

Many vinyl seats are designed to look like leather with a lot of practical durability, but they should not be cleaned the same way. Water and a mild detergent is a tried and true cleaning method for more intense stains, and you should use a soft cloth, sponge, or brush. For more intense issues, checking your specific type of vinyl will enable the best care.\n<\/p><\/div>\n
