How To Get Wee Out Of A Car Seat

[bednobs]

help - there is a large amount of wee soaked into one of the seats of my car - what is the best way to eliminate odour and clean the seat? it's fabric seat with leather sides. would having it valeted help?

[EcclesCake]

In the first instance I'd try sprinkling bicarb on to the wet patch to draw out the moisture and eliminate any smells.

[bednobs]

bicarbonate of soda powder?

[EcclesCake]

Yep. Sprinkle it on leave it to draw out the moisture and then Hoover off.

[bednobs]

ok, i don't have tht - is baking powder similar?

[boxtops]

Nooooo - there's an element in baking powder which makes cakes rise.....

if it had just happened i would put bicarb on it or baby talc and leave it over night. then in morning i would hoover up and repeat process until i cannot smell it anymore.

[bednobs]

ok, so no luck on that. Would a valet/steam clean help do you think?

[maggiebee]

Steam clean should eliminate all odours. Might then use something like Febreze spray on it once dry.

I had a full valet of my car but even with that shampooing and deep clean of seats was £10 per seat extra. My car is a 7 seater so it would have been another £70 in addition to the £30 I paid. The standard valet just includes vacuuming the seats no actual cleaning.
