Cleaning Seat Stains

My Fit fabric seats stain very easily, even snow stained them yesterday. The only liquid in my car is coffee, so I'm assuming that might be the culprit. I've tried a carpet cleaner, with zero results. Any thoughts?

Thanks a million!

Try Woolite and Water Mix and agitate it with a brush or can also use a good APC and dilute it with water and spray it on the stain and once again agitate it with a brush and extract the water/stain with a shop vac or something similar.

I spilled one of those bottles of Starbucks Fraps on my passenger seat. I got a cleaner from Pep Boys and it worked fine. Only thing I can say atm is that it was in a yellow/black can with a brush.

When I get home later tonight I'll get the name and post it.
