    Fabric clean and lightning fast are both incredible products. My wife’s car seats had coffee, soda, make up, and body oil stains all over. Front and back seats. I bought the light duty drill brush and went to town using both products diluted 7:1. At that dilution both products are pretty much still full strength and they still foam up excellent. I wish I could put a before and after pic up here as my words won’t do these products and justice. These do exactly what you want them to do, only better. And that my friends, is rare. Chemical guys has kick a** chemicals and I’m always getting asked now what I use to wash my car, what I use on my tires, and I always send em to YT to search up chemical guys!

      Hey Z, I hope you figured it out but if not, take the ratio numbers (20:1) and add them together. 20+1 =21 now take the size in ounces of the container you are going to put the mixture in. We’ll use a chemical guys bottle size, say 16 ounces. Now divide 16 (mixture container size) and divide it by 21 (the ratio numbers we added together). 16/21= 0.76 ounces of chemical. Now multiply 0.76 by 20 which equals 15.24 ounces…
      15.24 ounces of water plus 0.76 ounces of chemical equals 16 ounces. I hope that made sense!

    I buy and sell cars with my son as a side hustle so I've detailed a lot of cars. My son's Girlfriend bought a Honda Accord LX three years ago and tried everything to get the cloth seats clean as they were BADLY stained but nothing worked. She wanted to move to NY so last week she asked me to sell her car for her. IT had a lot of exterior detialing but I got it looking great. Now to the interior.... I used this product on her seats and they came out looking brand new! I got more for her car than what she paid for the car 3 years ago. How do I post before and after pictures? I am amazed with this product and how easy it is to use.

    Microfiber towels really revolutionized the industry. The towel method is ok, but does leave chemical residue behind that will eventually cause the fabric to get dry and tear easier over time, but it's the best method for people who don't have an extractor. The big cons of an extractor though are supersaturating the yellow high density foam in the seats. Ya have to let it all dry REALLY WELL.

    What about mixed media seating- like a blend of leather/vinyl and fabric? Will using a brush/drill damage the leather/vinyl material? The fabric is contained mid-back down to 4 in from the front of the seat and is about a foot wide all surrounded by material I imagine we don't want to scrub!

    Please clarify for me. Isn't Ligthning Fast supposed to be diluted? At least, this is what the bottle says. However, I see the demonstration applying it full strength. Which is it?

    I just got a car from a handyman and it's greased up everywhere on the fabric what do you recommend for that because I took it for detailing and they didn't do a good job. I don't have the drill to brush the seat like u. I was thinking about getting the lightning fast and a small brush and spray all the seat and seat belts and scrub it by hand and wipe with towel
