\nThe first step is to get rid of oil and grease as much as possible. Take a plastic scraper and scrape off excess grease, but be very gentle since you could end up damaging the material. Next, take a towel or blotting paper and gently dab the stain to soak up excess oil. You can also sprinkle a little baking soda on to the stain and leave it for about 15 minutes. Baking soda will absorb oil from the stain too.<\/p>\n
\nRinse the stain gently using hot water. You could also use cold water but hot water works better on oil stains. For best results, use a steam cleaner. Steam will cut through grease and oil really fast and effectively because of its high temperature. With the right attachment, you can easily handle a steam cleaner and treat only the affected area, while rinsing could only get water all over the seats. If not dried quickly and properly, this can cause water stains. So exercise caution!<\/p>\n
\nYou can use an all-purpose upholstery cleaner or mix up some dish soap with water for this purpose. The second solution will attack the stain more aggressively, but the seats should be fine as long as the soap or the detergent you use does not contain ammonia.<\/p>\n
\nRinse the stain again with hot water or steam. You can repeat step 3 if necessary followed by rinsing if the stain is still visible.<\/p>\n
\nDry the rinsed stain with a hair dryer thoroughly to prevent water spots from forming on the upholstery.<\/p>\n
