Title: Washing heated seats
Post by: Proz on 07 February 2009, 14:00:30

Just got myself an all singing and dancing Vax carpet washer with the upholstery attachment ...... so is it wise to use it to wash my heated seats ( non leather ).....i wouldnt be stupid enough to soak them but should i just stick to the normal hoover  :y

I would think you'll be OK as long as you don't soak the seat. Our Hoover wet and dry vacuum just gives a fine spray that wouldn't really wet as seat too much.
My Dad had a good result with their Vax on his old Granada seats.
I read a car mag years back where they compared the effectiveness of car valet stuff against cost etc. A bar of Vanish soap came out the best and costs bu66er all to buy!  :o
