Water broke in car. Washing Car seats? Help!

hey I am new here and I just stumbled across this site. I clean carpets for my summer job, and I get quite a few blood/bodily fluid stains. An experienced carpet cleaner/upholstery cleaner will know what to do. A peroxide base cleaner seems to work best. And as others had said it will cost you some money, but it should be clean when all is done. I would also ask if they guarantee their work..just an idea.

Wouldn't the peroxide bleach the black fabric? As far as the rest it wouldn't bother me at all to sit in it after it was cleaned... I'm sure I've touched worse having dogs and cats around and a child who gets sick sometimes... (oh yea not to mention the few times I've slept in sleazy motels... God knows what's in those mattresses )

Haha...ya mattresses can be bad. No, peroxide based cleaners normally dont bleach fabrics, but it is important to test it first in an inconspicuous spot. I use simple hydrogen peroxide to get blood out of my clothes, but then again it gets rinsed quickly and I only normally do it on white clothes. As for the Yaris I have never tested peroxide cleaners. But I have cleaned other cars with a strong 2 stage cleaner called "stain-magic". It works on biological stains/organic stains really well such as blood.

It might be prudent, although probably a bit off putting for the female, to put a large bath towel down for her to sit on if she's that close to term.

If you had a $5000 leather sofa would you not do that for it ?
Seriously, when the kids come in from running thru the sprinkler what do you tell them ? And thats just plain ole clean water.
