One of the ways to increase the effectiveness of heavy Automotive Interior Repair is to remove the seats. For example, in a sedan, this may mean pulling out the two front seats and the rear seat bottom. In a mini-van this may mean pulling out the rear passenger seats, which in many cases are designed to be removable by the consumer anyway. Removing the seats has many benefits. Especially in heavily soiled vehicles or in the case of spills between and under the seats, this is the most efficient way to clean the inside of the car. And in the case of an odor causing spill that has traveled under the seats, seat removal is imperative to remove all the odor causing contaminants. It may seam like removing the seats will take more time. In actuality, without the seats, the rest of the interior cleaning process is much easier due to better access to the soiled area and more room to work in the vehicle. Plus the seats are now outside the vehicle, making it easier to completely clean the sides, runners, and back of the seat. And in the case of upholstered seating, there is no worry about extractor solution over spray during cleaning. Finally, you now have full access to the center console that travels along the transmission hump.
