    teal32 It's time to get the '40 Chevy ready for the season. The interior could use a good cleaning. It's gray tweed and leather. I know that some people on the site think tweed should go into the trash, but that's not an option now. I'm wondering what people are using to clean tweed before I go out and buy products. Thanks in advance.

    A wet vac can help get the water/cleaning solution out after you're done scrubbing - make sure the end of the hose is clean first.

    hand steamer is by far the best.

    If it`s sculpted on foam, don`t over saturate it.----If you have to ask why, get it done professionally.

    Da34guy has it right. I've used Diluted Simple Green on my seat covers with great results.

    Also what nice with the steamer, as it takes out the wrinkles and tightens up the tweed !
