car stain; suggestions on how to remove.
Today has been one of my worst days as a BRZ owner. I recently bought a Old spice deodorant and had it on my passanger seat. The sun melted the deodorant and got it stained all over my seat. I'm scrambling to find out a solution so I can complete remove the stain, any suggestions or past experiences are gladly welcomed. thank you all.
heres a pic, taken 6 hours after the incident.

I'm assuming it's in the cloth part. Maybe one of those hand-held carpet steamer/cleaner things for spot cleaning? You could also try Dawn detergent and a bristle brush. Either may still leave a different color or finish on the affected area, not sure it would not show after.
Personally, I'd take it to a reputable detailer. They have access to the right commercial products and hopefully have the experience to do the job without leaving any trace. Good luck...

^^^ This is probably the best advice, honestly a professional detailer could probably get that stain out of like $50 and 30 minutes of their time...tops.

^^Yes ans yes.
A pro detailer is where its at. Just check their reviews, word of mouth, or best their actual yield. If you fail, and/or cant find a good detailer that can mend it. Option C: Subaru parts, Cushion cover cloth Right $294.36

If your going to DIY, I'd suggest warm, soapy water, applied with a soft brush and sucked up with a strong wet/dry vac. May require several sessions.
