You might want to try Folex....I had a coffee stain in the passenger seat of my Ford Ranger and the Folex removed all traces.

Folex also pulled a 1 year old coffee stain out of my Tahoe carpet.

Folex or Kids n Pets will do it. If that dont work...you can try a vapor steamer. I have a TR5 which kick arse :p

[jimmybuffit]

Almost any low pH solution will neutralize reg coffee stains (vinegar) decaf is more problematic!



FYI, DOT cautions against cleaning seatbelts, as use of `harsh` chemicals will degrade the integrity of the fabric in the belt... potentially severe liability issues - in theory, anyway.



Good Luck!

For sure vinegar will work. You could also try a vapor cleaner - even a cheapie (Scunci)from TV will work on a stain like that.

I would also throw in a vote for the steamer if you have access to one. Santa brought me a Daimer this year and I am still having fun finding places around the vehicles and house to use it, amazing.

Oxi-Clean Miracle Foam/Oxi-clean. You can get it in a spray bottle. This stuff just cleaned "melted butter" stains out of a cotton shirt!!!!!!!!

If any one can top this than use there suggestion, because I have never seen anything that would remove butter stains, except for a pair of scisors!

I bought it last year I "Think" from Target, call them before you go.
