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

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
Wonder what they'll say in the paint shop when I walk in with the seat and say ' Match It Fella"..



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











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



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









Not looking much better does it Guess more scrubbing tomorrow.









Cheers

Russells happy and I'm happy..good deal done..
