How to remove urine from car seats

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Checks and maintenance

This suggestion is valid for those transporting children, elderly people, or animals, who may urinate on the seats of our vehicle. The main rule is to remove it as quickly as possible. We blot (without rubbing) the excess liquid with an absorbent cloth, then mix warm water and white vinegar and put it in a spray bottle. Spray the affected area and let it sit for 10 minutes. Blot again with a clean cloth to dry. Spray a specific degreaser for car interiors (like the MA-FRA that we can find on Amazon with the code B07NF4D15D at the price of 12.57 euros, free delivery for Prime customers): it is recommended to NEVER use household detergents, which could damage the fabric and leave stains. Let it sit for a few minutes, then wipe with a damp cloth (just water) to remove the product residues; dry as much as possible with a dry cloth and then open the window and park the car in the sun to speed up drying. If the seats are leather, we will need to use specific products for leather, as vinegar could damage it.
