Default Nasty Interior

Hey everyone! Im new to the boards and all but yea... My parents are giving me their Ti 318 96' model for my first car and I spent like 6 hours trying to clean it up alone today. And I was wondering what I could do for the seats I use to have a problem with motion sickness so their pretty nasty . I guess their vinyl since I know its not leather. We were thinking about shampooing it with our shampooer. Would this work or just mess up the interior? And is there some sort of cleaner to put in the shampooer Im guessing carpet shampoo probably wouldnt be the best bet. What about that oxy clean stuff? Thanks.

That’s just gross dude Is it stained into the seats or something? Wash that puke with some soapy water and a wet towel or sponge, and be sure to finish off with mass amounts of Fabreeze to rid your poor car of that stench. Lucky you have vinyl and not cloth seats. Have fun

I recommend trying a bio-enzyme cleaner for cat/dog urine, etc. The one we use is called Just for Cats or something like that. Removes odor and stains if not set too long. Should be available at specialty pet stores. You really want to clean it out well cuz your nose is probably desensitized. And when you invite some honey into your new ride, you don't want to be explaining your propensity to yack in cars cuz it smells pukey. Top it off with Febreeze. Drive with windows down. You're good.
