Mmmmm.....probably 2 options here.

Replace the seat or have it retrimmed.

Oh that sucks :?

Is the paint on the seat flat or can you feel it with your hand when you run it over the seat?

What colour is the seat?

Would you consider using VHT vinyl dye on it if you could get a close match?

I can't think of anything that would remove the paint without damaging the seat...

You could scrub it with a brush and soapy water and see if some of it comes off... but still be carefull not to damage the seat.

Whoa, way to go with the freudian typos ;)

With regards your seat problem, can't hurt to try thinners on it to lift the paint. If the seat gets damaged, try vinyl paint - it actually works a treat.

That was the first thing I thought.... but, if its vinyl, it will probably melt......

But..... if its stuffed anyway, what harm can it do?

I love vinyl paint.... My patience for auto triming is next to none..... so I go through a few cans of that stuff when ever I have to do an interior :lol:

WINDEX, works real good, spray it on, let it sit, spray again, rubb it with a dull knife ( butter knife) n scrub it off. Windex works real well on vinyl and cloth . just be patient, it takes a few goes and if its cloth dont scrub too hard as youll fuzz up all the fibres.

If all else fails rip it out cover it in BIOZET and rub it in and pressure wash it (not too close with warm water) stand it in a corner with the face of the seat up and let it dry but that will also take time. I know both suggestions work as ive done both before on my Clubsport

well i don't know if this will help but...i was told by some mates at the RTA that when vandals spray graffiti they use aeroguard & spray it on the signs & apparently works best :shock: ....at least you won't have any problems with mosquitoes :)
