Have you tried washing up liquid? Or Vanish might be an option but make sure you check it can be used on that material

mm tried whashing up liquid and cif but it wont budge thanks ross

Perhaps try vanish or something specifically designed for upholstery then. I would recommend the vanish soap personally.

The only things I can think of, off the top of my head, are paint or bleach, neither of which seem to be very good ideas lol. Yeah get some pics up, that might be good

just a thought, not tried it, so I would test it on a small part which is either hidden or not obvious, but how about white shoe polish?? It will have a white dye in it to re-dye the shoe every time you polish them, so it might work.

again its just a thought, not some thing I have tried my self

Hope you find a solution

If the seats are vinyl, paint them.

You can get vinyl paint from most car shops, halfrauds sell the stuff.

Tips on using it though... make sure the surface is clean, and once clean, ensure it is left to dry

From then on, follow the instructions on the can and you can't really go wrong

Hope this helps,

Matt
