Food oil stains! (interior)

My GF is one hot mama, and she has a 2005 Tacoma Double Cab to boot. Last night she was the designated driver and was taking someone home, but the girl just put her huge plate of pasta next to her and not IN HER LAP.

Anyway it spilled all over the place. We got it all up, no stains. We used one of those spray, foam cleaners but there are food oil stains from the sauce. They look like dark grey circles. (see attached pic)




Any advice would be greatly appreciated.


Mahalo,
Drew

My advice is, you should post a picture of your smokin hot girlfriend modeling the Tacoma...

OK, just kidding.

But seriously, I use a shop vac and rubbing alcohol. Spray the alcohol in heavy, then let it sit for a minute & vacuum it up. Or try the Oxy Pro. I've heard that stuff works well, too.

And pics of the friend too, if she's hot

And tell your g/f not to let people in the truck with plates of pasta next time.

I have a nice similar grease spot on my suede watch band. Happened like the second day of owning it. I have no idea how to get it out. (Helpful aren't I?)

EDIT - Okay, suggestion: get Wet Okoles or something and just cover it up!
