HELP! Used scotch gard oxy to remove pizza stain now looks worse

[spedster]

I got pepperoni and cheese on my car seat. I got the chunks off then sprayed some Scotch gard oxy directly on the seat let stand 5 minutes then dabbed with a towel, now it looks like this. You can see the stain is still there and now there is the larger area where I sprayed that you can see. How can I get this out? I have never properly cleaned car seats before. If you look closely you can see there is a larger stain that goes across the whole seat, I dont know what that is, it was there when I got the car. Please help a nooby!

What do you have for tools?

I recently had a cloth F350 with stains that my 'professional' chem wouldn't touch. I ended up using diluted simple green on the spot and the entire area, gently rubbing the area, then misted with warm water and extracted it using a vacuum. Came out like new after a few attempts.

Not sure why my professional equip wouldn't do that job, but I run into it occasionally where household stuff works better

Oil based from pizza? Try a citrus degreaser or tanin stain remover. Meguiars sells them by the gallon for protein specific stains lol

My only tools are a craftsman wet-dry vac.

Was it just the simple green all purpose concentrate? What did you dilute it to?

rent a rug doctor and extract your seats while yu try to remove that stain too

[spedster]

I've seen some people recommending dilute dawn dish soap too which I may try first since I would have to buy the other products mentioned.

What is the general idea of getting this stain out. Do I want to soak the area with the cleaner then agitate with a brush and then vacuum it out? I've never done this before and want to avoid permanent damage.

This sounds like a great idea. It seems like I can rent for a day for $30. Do they typically come with cleaner or do I need to buy some? If I need to get some any recs?

Umm, try this before doing all that.

Woolite 1:10 in a spray bottle of distilled water, agitate with soft brush, pat with Micro fiber, wet vac. Wash, rinse, repeat if needed.

To rinse do I just do the same thing but with water in a spray bottle instead?
