So I've got a 1988 Mazda Rx-7 with cloth interior. It's in pretty good shape considering its age, but the driver's seat and driver-side side door panel has noticeable dark brown spots. I also managed to drip some krazy glue on to passanger side seat while vainly attempting to glue a busted trim piece. Any thoughts on what I can use? Obviously I don't want some oxy shit that will leave a big white spot or something.

razor blade..........no cleaner will remove that, you'll need to cut it out or use a solvent which will at least f up your uphosltery a little bit

I have some professional spot remover used in professional detailing (I detail aircraft). I rarely do the interiors, and havent used this product yet. if you want to come over to my house and try it, you are welcome to. It claims to leave no spots.

club soda works very well.

Stains, Oxyclean is king. I would try normal cleaners first to actually get it out, then use oxyclean to remove the pigments. It won't affect the color of your carpet (unless it's dirty as shiznit)

^^^^ I may take you up on that if all else fails. Thanks for the offer.

^^ i've had bad luck with oxyclean (or some knockoff oxy thingie) leaving white spots

^ I may try that first.

Btw guys this isn't really carpet so much as a cloth door panel and a seat. I tried a little bit of sandpaper on the Krazy Glue spot and it made the spot less visible.
