New jeans will stain the hell out of white seats

[_ACX]

I wasn't really thinking about it, but yesterday I was wearing a new pair of jeans and got caught in a rainstorm. Although I wasn't soaked, the jeans left behind blue streaks all over the seats. Any advice for getting them out? Soap and water helped a little, but not enough.

In owners manual. Just use hot cloth on them, dont think it mentioned anything about soap. Had the same issues on my light brown seats. It did come out fairly painless

Get black seats next time

I use 50% isopropyl alcohol that works well to remove stains on my seats. I haven't tried it on dye. Family Dollar sells it as a first aid spray, and I keep it in my car in lieu of hand sanitizer.

i use baby wipes to get my hair dye off my seats (my hair is a mix of blue and purple). comes off easily. the service guy mentioned window cleaner...i haven't tried that.

Magic eraser. Use it lightly.

Rubbing alcohol diluted in what. Dab and wipe. Clean off with water.

@_ACX were you able to get the stain off?

Some have indicated that Magic Eraser removes the anti-stain coating on the Tesla seats, so that is not something I would use. Try baby wipes first.

The Magic Eraser is basically super super fine sandpaper. I would only use it as an absolute last resort.

Thanks,

Agree to avoid magic eraser. It would likely fix this problem, but remove the outter surface that likely contains the stain resistance. Not speaking from experience, but rather my understanding of the material....

@_ACX Please share your results when you are able to get the blue out. Its always good to have another data point!

Get your white seats ceramic coated asap!.

I got the stains out with water and a leather seat cleaner I found in the back of the closet.
