Hi guys,

New member here and just wanted to take a sec to introduce me and my bolt . A couple months ago I purchased a used 06 Supercharged SS with about 100k miles. She's my baby! All stock except for the plasti dip on the wheels for the winter. Probably going to stay stock for a while considering how expensive school is lol.



Anyway, as far as my question goes...

Yesterday I accidentally left a wet towel on the Recaro seat and when it dried it left an outline from where i left the towel?! I find it hard to believe that this stain is only from water (although I could be wrong). I'm wondering if maybe grease or dirt from the towel mixed with the water to leave the stain? Any suggestions on how to get it out?

 

Welcome!

Believe it or not, water will stain the Recaros. The easiest way to clean them is called Tuff Stuff, it's like $3 at Walmart and will clean them amazingly well. Mine looked pretty clean, but the microfiber was turning blue from dye from my jeans that had rubbed off, that the Tuff Stuff was getting out.

 

I just realized my picture urls didn't show up! But anyway, thanks a bunch! I'll definitely be picking some up on my way home from work

 

Welcome. I had water stain my base model seats as well, I'm going to try that stuff too thanks.

 

Yup works great steamcleaning also works wonders. Leave the ss badges alone

 

Thanks guys. I want to keep these recaros as clean as possible!

 

Welcome to Cobalt land. Once you enter there's no escape.

 

Welcome!

 

welcome..

as whitney said tuff stuff is the best cleaner for the recaros. i did a demonstration awhile back with it...... spray it on heavy, let it soak in for a minute or 2, do another coat, and then blot with paper or a normal towel to remove the stain or if you have a small spot carpet cleaner that will extract it too. works great!

 

Thanks guys! I picked some up this morning, they look as good as new!

 

Welcome to the forum! Glad you got the stain out of your seat. PM me if you want the build sheet for your Cobalt. Happy New year!

excellent

 

where at in Illinois are you? I know it says Chicago land area but that could mean a lot of things im like 2 hours west of chicago

 

Where are you at? I am also about 2 to 2.5 hours west of chicago

 

If they are leather try saddle soap. works great.

 

I have recaros in the front and fully leather seats in the back. I'm sure those will need some cleaning soon also. And my hometown is Naperville but currently going to school in Peoria, IL. Haven't met any fellow Balts yet

 

I wss in Naperville 2 days ago and itd really close to riceburner

Everyone claims to hate the city, but will never admit to actually living in a burb unless you force it out of them...

 

truth

 

i have no problems with chicago. thats actually my first choice to live after college. Gotta experience living in the city atleast once in my life.

 

I live in a small town, Rochelle haha much smaller than Naperville or Peoria
