  1. Let the cleaner cool, and then pour it into a small spray bottle, using a funnel as needed. Do a quick spot check before using to make sure the cleaner doesn't discolor your car seat fabric.
  2. The next time you're dealing with a spill, spritz the cleaner onto a paper towel or soft cloth, and dab it onto the stain. Or use it full force with this complete car seat cleaning method!
