So basically I spilt pre workout on my seat a while back & if you're familiar with it,it's potent.
I've tried using an upholstery cleaner on the seat and used a wet and dry Hoover to get it up(now the whole seat smells musky lol)
Any ideas?
Any places do proper seat cleaning and how much?

I've just ordered myself an odour bomb
Fingers crossed

As Ziggy says you will likely need to wash the foam bottom of the seat.

I removed my front drivers seat and took my front seat bottom seat cover off to repair the seat heater. I was quite impatient with the plastic which clips into a channel. If you look carefully however I am fairly sure you can get the covers off by pushing a thin piece of metal down between the plastic and the part that the cover is clipping onto. I was thinking they are permanently fixed but later it looked like you can get the plastic out using a very thin tool which goes between the plastic and the metal that sticks out at that point. There are about 8 points per side where the plastic is gripped by the metal. Even with my impatience i was still able to refit the cover and it has not come undone.
 
I managed to use some proper upholstery cleaner and deodoriser and used a wet and dry Hoover and it seems to have done the trick! I've got one of them odour bomb things on the way so hopefully that'll give it that extra help[emoji23]

Good to hear you got it cleaned up. I have been meaning to have a go at doing the door upholstery as it is fairly disgusting with my trips to the dump and the car being from 2005. Looking a bit like solid crud in places. I suppose it is mainly just ordinary dust with a bit of arm grease added in and then crushed down..
 
Well I'm waiting for this odour bomb thing to arrive I've heard some good reviews but I'm not sure,steaming the seats and doors is also an option
