Stain Help
I have this problem.... I accidently stained my front passenger seat with an exorbitant amount of soy sauce (long, long story). Anyway my seat is cloth and black but the stain is still noticibale, does anyone have any ideas of how i can get this out, or how much it would be to replace the seat cushion. Anything is appreciated.
Thanks, and Happy Motoring  |

This is the best stain cleaner I have used. It has saved me many times.

Couldn't hurt to ask Mini service and see what they advise before you run the risk of discoloring/lightening it. Have you tried pressing a water moistened towel to it repeatedly to try and dilute/soak up the soy? And since tap water can contain minerals etc that might leave staining residue you may want to use demineralized or distilled water (not sure if distilled will still have hard minerals tho).
Good luck!

Thanks everone for your input, i'm bringing it to the dealer on saturday to get a speaker replaced so i'll discuss it with them there so see if they have any ideas. I am though, not opposed to replacing the seat cusion so if anybody knows of where I could buy one, and how much the run, that would also be greatly appreciated. Thanks again.
