Hi,

I bought some second hand FD seats in Alcantara ( i.e not the carbon fibre look but the suedey look) . They have good bolsters and I\'m wearing my bolsters out due to my fat a**e
Got them home and discovered that the driver\'s was black and the passenger\'s was dark blue. Caveat Emptor and take them out into the daylight!!

Anyway they are useable but the squabs need a good clean up. One looks water stained ( I hope it\'s water).

Any advice out there on the best way to give these seats a good clean up.

Thanks.

Give it a rinse in the bathtub with the shower hose and rub it down with a sponge and some upholstery/leather cleaner...afterwards leave it in the tub for a coupla hours until touch dry (otherwise the base drips... then move them next to the radiator until fully dry, remember to use newspaper underneath though :)
