Have some stains on 2018 Ranger seat, white vinyl. Not exactly sure what from, either my buddy’s tobacco spit or coffee I’d guess. I’ve tried vinegar, alcohol, and Mr Clean Magic Erasers, and so far none of those have begun to remove the stains. Any recommendations on the magic fix or product that may remove these? Thanks guys! ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2019/03/full-89257-4063-f52f816d_86a6_476d_b567_d74a08650e60.jpeg) ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2019/03/full-89257-4064-cbbb57db_ddd2_4d7c_a3de_e55ad2312b83.jpeg)

Already tried the Magic Eraser... When that didn’t work is when I realized I had cause for concern!

Be really careful with magic eraser. I used it and it magically erased the top coating of the vinyl and shortly thereafter had to replace. It is really harsh on vinyl. I will never use them again on my vinyl.

Looks like blood stains. Might try Oxyclean

If it is blood, try hydrogen peroxide.

If it is blood, try hydrogen peroxide. This ^. Otherwise, Dow Scrubbing Bubbles works great for cleaning vinyl or leather seats. A buddy of mine who used to work on interiors of luxury automobiles like Ferrari, Lamborghini, Bentley, etc. gave me the tip.

The best thing I have ever used on boat seats is Malco Leather and Vinyl Cleaner. Pricey, but well worth it. I usually coat with aerospace 303 afterwards (somewhat slippery though).
I would be careful with magic eraser -- it can be abrasive.

As a carpet cleaner , I would say don't use any of the suggestions, it is vinyl, dip a cotton swab in bleach and gently rub the little stains,,, wipe it with a really wet towel to rinse , let it dry and repeat until its gone... the oxyclean, degreaser stuff and other suggestions will break down the vinyl.... bleach only the stain and let it sit 3 mins then rinse and dry.

THE STAINS REFUSE TO COME OUT!!!! I’ve tried the following::: Vinegar, Hydrogen Peroxide, Magic Eraser, Scrubbing Bubbles, Alcohol, Bleach.
That’s some tough stuff for it to not have any effect. Am I SOL here? Would a professional cleaning/detailing service have a way to bring these out?
