If you travel with your pets or kids, the chances of your car seat cloth catching a stain is even higher. This may seem like a huge inconvenience but you don\u2019t have to take the entire upholstery off to wash the stains every time &#8211; nor do you need professional cleaning for every stain. With the right tools and technology, you can get rid of stains from car seat cloth at home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This car seat cleaning guide will help you learn how to remove stains from car seat cloth without spending too much time or money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-to-clean-car-seats-at-home-in-5-easy-steps\">How to Clean Car Seats at Home in 5 Easy Steps<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Before you start the cleaning process, here is a list of items required to cleaning car seats:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-car-seat-cleaning-equipment-required\"><strong>Car Seat Cleaning Equipment Required&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Microfiber Cloth<\/li><li>Towel<\/li><li>Spray bottle<\/li><li>Vacuum (with brush attachment)<\/li><li>Baking soda (optional)<\/li><li>Vinegar<\/li><li>Dish soap<\/li><li>Water<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Follow these 5 steps to DIY car seat cleaning at home:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Step 1 &#8211; Vacuuming<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Use an attachment or extension to thoroughly vacuum the car seats.

A cleaning solution can be made at home within your budget and will give you desirable results. You can make one using different ingredients. Some of the most commonly used products for cloth cleaning purpose are given below:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-1-vinegar\">1. Vinegar<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Vinegar is an efficient and low-cost alternative to most of the cleaning products available in the market. Add one cup of vinegar in a gallon of hot water in a bucket to concoct a cleaning solution. Then throw in some dish soap for good measure.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-2-baking-soda\">2. Baking Soda<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Baking soda is a deodoriser, an effective cleaner and insanely light on the pocket. It is especially recommended for the nastier stains on smaller areas. Just pour a quarter cup of baking soda in a small bowl of warm water and your cleaning solution is ready.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/30084928\/HOW-TO-GET-STAINS-OUT-OF-CAR-SEAT-CLOTH-body-B-300620210132-1024x640.jpg\" alt=\"A man spraying cleaning solution to the car seats \" class=\"wp-image-8716\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/30084928\/HOW-TO-GET-STAINS-OUT-OF-CAR-SEAT-CLOTH-body-B-300620210132-1024x640.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/30084928\/HOW-TO-GET-STAINS-OUT-OF-CAR-SEAT-CLOTH-body-B-300620210132-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/30084928\/HOW-TO-GET-STAINS-OUT-OF-CAR-SEAT-CLOTH-body-B-300620210132-768x480.jpg 768w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/30084928\/HOW-TO-GET-STAINS-OUT-OF-CAR-SEAT-CLOTH-body-B-300620210132-640x400.jpg 640w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/30084928\/HOW-TO-GET-STAINS-OUT-OF-CAR-SEAT-CLOTH-body-B-300620210132-421x263.jpg 421w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/30084928\/HOW-TO-GET-STAINS-OUT-OF-CAR-SEAT-CLOTH-body-B-300620210132-558x349.jpg 558w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/30084928\/HOW-TO-GET-STAINS-OUT-OF-CAR-SEAT-CLOTH-body-B-300620210132-363x227.jpg 363w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/30084928\/HOW-TO-GET-STAINS-OUT-OF-CAR-SEAT-CLOTH-body-B-300620210132-250x156.jpg 250w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/30084928\/HOW-TO-GET-STAINS-OUT-OF-CAR-SEAT-CLOTH-body-B-300620210132-368x230.jpg 368w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/30084928\/HOW-TO-GET-STAINS-OUT-OF-CAR-SEAT-CLOTH-body-B-300620210132-774x484.jpg 774w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/30084928\/HOW-TO-GET-STAINS-OUT-OF-CAR-SEAT-CLOTH-body-B-300620210132-672x420.jpg 672w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/30084928\/HOW-TO-GET-STAINS-OUT-OF-CAR-SEAT-CLOTH-body-B-300620210132-437x273.jpg 437w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/30084928\/HOW-TO-GET-STAINS-OUT-OF-CAR-SEAT-CLOTH-body-B-300620210132-301x188.jpg 301w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/30084928\/HOW-TO-GET-STAINS-OUT-OF-CAR-SEAT-CLOTH-body-B-300620210132-240x150.jpg 240w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/30084928\/HOW-TO-GET-STAINS-OUT-OF-CAR-SEAT-CLOTH-body-B-300620210132-771x482.jpg 771w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/30084928\/HOW-TO-GET-STAINS-OUT-OF-CAR-SEAT-CLOTH-body-B-300620210132-669x418.jpg 669w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/30084928\/HOW-TO-GET-STAINS-OUT-OF-CAR-SEAT-CLOTH-body-B-300620210132-435x272.jpg 435w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>You can clean the car seats by spraying the cleaning solution on them  \n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-3-club-soda\">3. Club Soda<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Your everyday club soda is nothing but carbonated water with useful minerals such as potassium citrate and potassium bicarbonate. These ingredients make it an excellent cleaner for car seat fabric. Like baking soda, this is also more effective for stains in smaller areas.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-4-laundry-detergent\">4. Laundry Detergent<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>You can easily make a cleaning solution with a powder or liquid detergent mixed in a warm bucket of water. However, refrain from making too rich a solution as it will saturate the car seats and always apply only a small amount on the seats.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Please note these are for cloth seats. The best product to clean leather car seats or vinyl car seats might be different.

Do it until the stain is gone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While blotting may work for many stains, others can be stubborn beyond our wildest dreams. Depending on your car seat covering, try the following scrubbing methods to treat such hard-to-remove stains as cola, juice, coffee and others:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>To remove stains from vinyl or leather car seats, put some non-gel toothpaste and use a toothbrush to scrub at the stain gently.<\/li><li>To remove stains from fabric car seats, baking soda solution is the best.

You can scrub as long and hard as you want but before that spot-check the seat fabric for colour fastness to avoid fading especially in inconspicuous areas.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-step-4-drying\">Step 4 &#8211; Drying<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that you have cleaned the seats and removed the stains, it is time to dry them. In case of leather or vinyl covers, you can simply wipe away the extra moisture. However, for fabric covers, there is a risk of water stains. The best approach in this regard is to absorb the surplus moisture with an old towel then let the fabric air dry. Leave the car door or windows open for fast drying.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-other-tips-to-keep-your-car-seats-cleans\">Other Tips to Keep Your Car Seats Cleans<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are a few tips for keeping your car seats clean:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>For deep, set-in stains on your car seats or if you are a frequent cleaner, invest in a portable carpet cleaner.

Then use a cleaning mixture of one tablespoon dishwashing liquid and one tablespoon of white vinegar with one and a half cup of water on the stain. Rub and blot the stain with the dishwashing liquid and vinegar solution using a microfibre cloth or a sponge.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-do-coke-stains-come-out\"><strong>Do Coke stains come out?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, but they require pre-treatment. Pre-treat the stain with vinegar or lemon juice. Allow it to stay on the stain for at least 5 minutes. Rinse the stain with water so the acid doesn&#8217;t damage the cloth. Mostly, such pretreatment loosens the stain so it comes out by rubbing with detergent.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-can-bleach-be-used-to-clean-car-seats\"><strong>Can bleach be used to clean car seats?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Bleach to clean car seats is not recommended as it can leave a strong odour or even discolour or damage the fabric. However, you can use it as a stain remover on specific spots or in a carpet cleaning machine for deep cleaning. Avoid using bleach inside your car, especially on screens, and avoid ammonia-based cleaners (like glass cleaners) on your screens as well. Bleach can damage your interior.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-do-i-dry-my-car-seats-after-shampooing\"><strong>How do I dry my car seats after shampooing?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You can set a fan or an air mover on each seat for faster drying. It will take around 15 to 20 minutes to dry. If the seat has dried, move the fan\/air mover to the next seat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This concludes our guide on how to clean car seats at home. Keep your vehicle clean all the time and remove spilled stuff right when it is fresh. Make sure you give your car deep clean every 2 weeks or at least once a month. In addition to cleaning it, you can put other efforts to make your car stand out.
