Default Cleaning car seats.

The cream coloured seats in my Fabia VRS are starting to get a bit grubby. I can't really afford to get the whole interior valeted, so has anyone got suggestions for the best products to clean the seats myself?

Cheers in advance for any help

Fabric. Cream side panels with black seat and back panels. Don't want to just put on seat covers as I rather like my seats with the VRS logo embroidered in them.

Halfrauds cleaners are quite good, Use them on a spot which isn't seen first though in case it goes wrong.

forget Halfords mate i used to valet cars and i will tell you the best way and you wont belive it as i did not but then done it and could not belive it.
Johnsons talcum powder is what you need sprinkle it on the seat pads use a nail brush to work it in then make sure you have a powerfull vacum and vac it off you will be gob smacked if it was leather then fairy liquid in a spray bottle with loads of warm water in the sprayer bottle and again work it with nice soft nail brush then wipe clean and use leather feeder or saddle soap for finish

Okay - I'm prepared to be proven wrong, but how can a dry powder remove stains?

Call me sceptical, but I'd like to now how it works
