Default stain on seats.....

so i accidently spilled a little water on the side of the driver's seat of my tC. it has unfortunately left a spoltchy, white colored stain that is annoying the heck out of me.

my question is how should i clean this? i'm obviously afraid to use water on it, seeing as that's what caused the stain in the first place. any tips on what products to use and how to go about using them to get rid of this would be much appreciated.

along these same lines...

if you just washed or it had been raining and the roof/rear hatch were wet. be careful when you open the hatch because the water that runs down the channel may drip inside. i had that happen after i washed and a little went down into the backseat. luckily it didn't stain but just something to be careful of

You might want to try some upholstry cleaner. You'll probably want to clean the entire seat so everything looks even. I've been pretty impressed with Tuff-Stuff in the aresol can. You can get it in the automotive section at Wal-Mart.
