Washing RRC seat covers

Oct 16, 2004 8 Replies

Yeah, I know it's a bit odd!



Anyone know if they are machine washable or not? Mine are a bit dirty, don't want to knacker them.



Also, does anyone know what holds the armrests to the seats, are they welded, or bolted. One of mine is very loose & could do with a bit of fettling.



Cheers

If they are, they will have a little label in them giving details of temperature of wash, whether you should spin dry, tumble dry, iron an all that stuff. Remarkable I know, Charlotte was impressed when I found out about it - especially as it meant all my washing failled to come out the same colour...

hehehhe - I actually mean the actual seat covers, not overcovers. My washing is as good as my Swahili!

She's taking shape now, all the carpets & seats are back in & she's welded up & serviced a treat. Looking forward to going off road soon enough.

looking at the long range weather, we might be in for a bad winter, so it might have a use other than a bit off off road driving.

I was going to give it a good powerwashing today, but after last night out in Sheffield, I feel like crap!

How the f*ck are you going to get the seats into the washing machine?

(Assuming the covers that come fitted to the seats do not come off, easily, anyway...)

I feel like crap every time I think about going into Sheffield on a Friday noght...

Where did you go, by the way?

the disco ones come off quite easily, as I found out when trying to repair and reinforce the utterly crap seat frame underneath.

Dyson do like a dry clean typr powder to use with the dyson however nailing the cover to the floor may prove to be a problem......

I dunno why he don't just go for the wire brush and Detol option...

... worked for me when i got back from Thailand...

We're talking about seats here Mother, not some nasty you acquired in a backstreet hotel room late one evening! :-)

Time is an illusion. Lunchtime doubly so.
