Am I the only one having issues with Yes Essentials seat fabric?(Jeeps and Chevys) I have a Thermax extractor and I still can not clean them to my satisfaction. I have also experienced this in 07-08 Ford trucks(although they don`t have the `Yes` tag on them). Water spots, rings and dark stains are impossible to remove. I am currently doing an 07 F150 for one of my dealers. I extracted the seats last night and they looked decent. This morning they look like crap! Any ideas guys??

Yes it is a terrible fabric.



Vacuum well then,



Pre-treat with a quality chemical and extract after some dwell time. The object is to evenly wet the fabric, which might involve doing the whole seat, as the water will soak into other areas.



If after drying there is still some light stains, you might be able lightly rub them away with a damp cloth, again you might have to do a whole area.



Some stains do not come out.

I don`t know what they were thinking! If you research `Yes" all they brag about is how easy their fabric is to clean. I`d hate to see what it looks like in a Wrangler that has had some off road time!

This wasn`t too bad but I have had the interior covered with large chunks of mud and it was really easy to clean. I have the floors all linex-ed so I just hose out the inside then spot clean the seats and have never had a problem.
