Anybody have my same EURO seats?
Hey guys,
Do any of you have these same euro cloth seats that I do? If so, what's your approach to cleaning them. My seats are nearly perfect which is amazing considering their age. I want to clean them and perhaps bring a little life back into that white without running any risk of damage. Thanks! ~Max ![]() |

Search "Pascha" for more about the cloth/color. I would use a quality fabric cleaner...3M etc.

It's kinda odd, but does the driver's side pattern not appear centred side to side? Or maybe it's just the pattern playing tricks with my mind...
A quality upholstery cleaner should work. And as per the usual caveats, try in an inconspicuous location first. You know, just to save some frustration if it buggers it up and all.

I used to have cloth/leather seats. To be honest I used to use spay on carpet cleaner, left it for twenty minutes and then vacuumed it off. Actually worked a treat

You used carpet cleaner on your leather seats or just on the cloth part? you used to use it, is that cause the carpet cleaner fuched the leather, never heard of that. I did see on TV that you can use steel wool to clean your glass-never tried that one either, we need pic's before and after before we run out and use carpet cleaner |

My Euro '82 SC...

I would think a reputable carpet cleaner who specializes in upholstery as well could make your seats look like new. I had this done to my SUV that had tan cloth interior and I was amazed how good it looked afterward.

You won't get them much whiter than that - they look just about right. Plus you run the risk of taking white away with too much cleaning.
