Funny enough I used a Kiddy one as the bristles are finer and get right into the indents in the vinyl... :D
Worked a treat, I used a finger nail brush on the seats but I think they need another go? :ewink:

Had a go at cleaning the front seat today, scrubbed it three times and it still looks grubby. :(
It's not in the best condition and I'll have to dismantle it and have it soda blasted and repainted :esad:
Wonder what they'll say in the paint shop when I walk in with the seat and say ' Match It Fella".. :lol: :thumbsup:

Image

Really bad stain were the driver sat, I'll be scrubbing that a few times more.. :esad:

Image

Image

Image

Image

Image

Scrubbed three times and look at the dirt still coming out.
Makes ya wonder what the seats your arse is sitting on is like :shock:

Image

It amazes me how someone can get paint on the seats of their car. :esurprised:

Image

Image

Image

Image

Not looking much better does it Guess more scrubbing tomorrow. :ewink:
