Well, I believed the hype about the white seats so I took my 3 grandkids on a 6 hour road trip and several 30 mile shopping trips. They left two days ago and today I noticed some mess around my seat so I took out the car vac and a wet wash cloth to see if there was any damage and to clean if needed. Wow, what a mess!!! melted M&Ms, gunk in the seams, all kinds of dirt and detritus. What I didn’t not expect was ball point ink. Naive me. It cleaned up pretty well. The Ink was more challenging, but with scrubbing, I got 98% off with just water. All in all, I’m satisfied. It cleaned up well but is not bullet proof. Next time, will be a little more instructive. I’m going to try wipes on the faint residual of the ink. Any other hints?
