Did a search and found some ideas involving Woolite and distilled water, however the speed yellow belts in my '03 C4S are getting dirty - and I'd like to check to see if anybody else has cleaned their color code seatbelts.

I want too clean my SY belts also, and not sure either.

I've had good luck with simple green on light colored seat belts

I would have thought your not supposed to use any chemicals on them what so ever as with any safety harness.

yellow seat belt cleaner.... What else?

Not sure but a mild mixture of soap is the usual manufacturers suggest. Pretty much like woolite and distilled water. I think they suggest distilled water since some places the water is stronger than some cleaners. I know down south in lousiana the water even comes out of the tap brownish and will knock you out from the chlorine stinch.

Shaving cream. Plain, cheap, shaving cream, not the Gilette gels, or anything like that. Spread it on, then wipe it off which a soft, damp cloth. It's what we use for cleaning our body armor without ruining the material. Works great.

Only cleaned my shell once. Most of the time cleaning it was Lysol it then leave it plopped over the gunners shield or if I wanted it to soak in deep and not dry fast, fold it on the seat. Best bet is get it off and dried right after a mission by leaving the wet against the body portion exposed to the air. The longer it stays wet the bigger chance of bacteria growing.

For the belts you really want to get all the way through the material and flush the dirt and oils out with out damaging the material or leaving it exposed to any chemicals. So pretty much I figure thats a mild soap and water. Be sure to rinse the soap out good maybe just having the water running through the material. I wouldn't make an effort to flex and twist the belts while washing and rinsing. Best to find a soft brush like barbers shaving brush softness to poke at the webbing to clean in deeper. Then when your 996 breaks down on the ring road of afghan you can use the brush to clean the dust from your weapon. Of course thats after you use it to dust the a/c vents outlets

I've had bad experiences with stff like sponges and such that break down and leave their particles on the piece being cleaned plus they don't get into the little spots like a soft brush will.

Good luck.

I've used Folex with great results, it's sort of a wonder spot-remover for almost anything, and is safe on almost anything. Pick it up at nearly any grocery or CVS/Rite-Aid type stores.

I've tried Tuff Stuff, great for carpets and belts

Last night I had to use "fast orange" hand cleaner to get grease out of our light carpet (Damn CV joint grease on my shoes!!). And it worked really well. I bet it would work on the yellow nylon webbing.

Try Windex® just might do the job...

Lots of good suggestions, about 9 so far. Wonder if Porsche has a recommendation???
