I believe there's some products on the market that do a good job.

There's this one with a funky spiky brush, but I'd be wary of it. Looks like it might stretch the fabric? Then again, its looks like it could really get deep stains out.

Hmm..... I've actually never really cleaned stains in my car... LOL
Anyone?

Any regular carpet cleaner will do the trick, i used that cleaner with the brush on it and it didnt hurt the fabric one bit. I spilled grape soda on it and it cleaned right up. I forget the name of the brand i used but dont worry about the brush hurting the fabric, i used a lot of elbow grease and it didnt hurt them.

The dealership also offers steam cleaning if you wanted to try that next time you're in there.

Dunno. My dealership sent me a couple coupons to get a wash/polish/wax/steam clean for $99. Leads me to believe that the cleaning by itself would run around $50? Might be cheaper at a detail shop.

I got a small gift box from the dealer that had vinyl cleaner, fabric cleaner and carpet cleaner - all Mitsu branded. They all worked surprisingly well - I use the vinyl stuff for the dash and its great and i used the fabric stuff for my couch at home and it worked very good as well (I have leather in the RA).
