Re: Not So Dirty Seat Got Filthy After Cleaning Huh?!
No expert but I’m sure that stuff was there, just buried in the seat. You’re just bringing it more to the surface.
Reminds me of a top gear episode where the three jokers each bought a BMW 3 series convertible and one of the ‘challenges’ was taking a swap of the interior to send to the lab. The results were, how do I say this, ‘interesting’.

Re: Not So Dirty Seat Got Filthy After Cleaning Huh?!
I agree with Texchappy.
I remember something like that in my old 85 Mustang.
We borrowed a carpet cleaner from a friend so I decided to clean the seats and carpet in the car.
As I was cleaning, there were a few spots that showed up (definitely weren't there at the beginning).
I continued to go over them multiple times and they eventually faded away.
If you keeping going over the spots, they should eventually go away.

Re: Not So Dirty Seat Got Filthy After Cleaning Huh?!
I’ve heard of that with cloth seats where stains can go beneath the fabric and into the foam, thus you’re actually activating the sub-surface stains in the foam when you’re getting the seat wet trying to clean it.
Sadly, I’m guilty of doing the internet thing and replying where I don’t actually have an answer to help with. Hopefully some of the experts can chime in as I don’t have any firsthand experience chasing a stain like that.
I do know you need to be careful with how much moisture you put into the seat foam as it can turn into a mold/mildew/funk problem if you can’t get it dried back out.

It may be more economical,(time-wise) to have new seat covers installed.
