    I noticed there are some water-marks on the back seats of my car. The seats are light grey, and it shows up pretty well.
    Could anyone recommend any products I could use for a DIY fix? Don't really want to fork out €€€ to valet it.

    I have the same problem (it's not a Ford by any chance is it?). Some generic car foam upholstery shampoo helped quite a bit, but it's still there if you look hard.

    use a water based solvent and lots of elbow grease and really get the whole seat wet. If you can pull the seat out. I had the same problem from some flowers on the back seat. It worked but I had to get the seat really wet and use a nail brush on the whole seat. Mine was a velour type cloth seat and grey too. I think the solvent I used was an autoglym upolstry cleaner.

    Autoglym Interior Shampooo is very good if you follow the instructions carefully. Halfords, about €7
