I do have a suggestion to remove grease from seat
belts, and particularly from the shoulder belt portion of newer cars that have
gotten into the greasy door striker by accident. I don't think the
chemical properties of today's WD-40 will weaken the fibers any and within
several hours it completely evaporates.
Spray the WD-40 directly onto the soiled area and
keep spraying until the grease has dissolved. Let dry.
I have used this several times on the shoulder loop
of my old Dodge van which just doesn't retract anymore like it used to and gets
stuck in the door latch.
If someone does know for sure that WD-40 will
damage the belt, please let me know!

Subject: How to clean seat blets
properly?
Any thoughts on how to clean seat belts properly? I had read somewhere in
my too distant past that you could soak them in solvent (lets say Varosol as
an example) then take them to the car wash and blast them with the
spray. Mine are really dirty having laid under the seats in a
convertible so they have rust stains from the seat springs as well as dirt and
grease. Thanks in advance.
