I have the light tan interior in my A3 and I've got some spots that need attention. Checking to see if anyone has had particulary good luck with any 1 product. Also checking if anyone has used a protectant on their cloth interior and had good luck with it. Thanks in advance.

 

I use a small carpet cleaner for my carpet and cloth seats. The one I've got is the Bissell Little Green. It cost me about $80 at Wal-Mart. It comes with cleaning solution that you mix with water and has an option for heated water.

(mine is the one on the far right with two attachments and a heater)

For really stubborn carpet stains, I like Blue Coral carpet cleaner. You can get it at most auto parts stores or large retailers. I wouldn't trust it on the seats though.

 

Appreciate the feedback. I'll check it out. We have a SpotBot, but I never thought about giving it a try - might be too big. I have access to aLittle Green and will give it a shot.

 

Thermax...the stuff in grocery stores that rent steam cleaners. Good stuff.

Once you get the spot out, vacuum, then treat with 303 High Tech Fabric Guard. It's the best replacement for Scotchguard, and actually is a better product.

Excellent - thank you

 

Excellent - many thanks. For many pieces of furniture, the steam cleaning method, along with stain removal processes, will return your couch, beloved recliner, or dining room chair cushions to like-new condition. If you search upholstery cleaning near me I can help. Their outstanding cleaning method preserves the original colors and patterns, making it appear as if you were looking at them through filthy glasses. Upholstery cleaning removes not just stains and smells, but also dust, grime, and allergies that have accumulated in the fabric over time. This comprises allergens including dust mites, dander, and pollen, as well as body oils and dead skin cells that the furniture has absorbed.
