They are the cloth option seats. They are a kind of low pile woven knit. I spent the better part of 2 hours on one seat. I used biokleen traffic lane cleaner and lots of agitation, didn't even make a dent. My steamer is in the shop but the customer told me he had 2 previous detailers steam them to no avail. I am thinking the steam has set the staining.



I was planning on picking up a Tornador though I am not sure this is the application for it. The customer says the staining is most likely sweat. The location of the stains (lower lumbar, outside tops of the seats) supports this. I have just never seen staining resist like this.
 
Cheap cloth, old stains, you are going to have a real tough time with those seats. Same crap they use on Saturns, Mazda3s and Ford trucks. Stains seem to set so easily and sweating into the seats make it worse. Carpet is garbage too, guess you noticed that when you vacuumed it though.
