    I am thinking of getting a new car soon and would like to protect the
    fabric from stains. Does anyone out there use Scotchguard regularly on
    their auto carpet and fabric? Does it work well to make stains come
    out easier? How often do you need to re-apply for it to be effective.

  2. It does work, better on some stains than others. As to reapplying,
    Read The Instructions on the can...

    But remember it works just as well if you buy a can of Scotchguard
    at the market for $10 and Do It Yourself as it does when you pay the
    dealer $200 for the "Upholstery Protection Package" and the lot porter
    grabs a can and sprays it on for you. ;-)

    Make sure you get the reformulated version. It may not be
    as deadly as the original version:
    "perfluorooctane sulfonate"
    (cancer, exema, liver damage, birth defects, brain damage, etc.)

    I think I'll deal with dirty upholstery.

    speaking as a commercial carpenter who comes home filthy every day, yes,
    scotchguard works. In my case, I still keep a blanket over my 2001
    Taco's seat... The truck's interior stil looks new but for the mats, and
    steam cleaners fix that.
