Heh, I noticed on the RX-7 forum someone decided to try and take credit for my pic, so I added my name in the bottom left corner. Thanks and don't take credit for something that you didn't make.

i don't get it. what seat was it under. driver or passenger and front or back of seat. first of all, it it was driver side and in front of the seat it would have shot all under the steering wheel not front of steering wheel. and if it was behind the front seat the back seats would be worse and no way can get the steering wheel like that.

You might try a product called "goof off" but get a good auto detailer to use it on the upholstery or rent a machine with an upholstery attachment or a carpet cleaner who has one. Soak the areas with goof off and follow directions. Good luck. The product works well.

He mentioned something about making the mistake of trying to remove the can from under the seat while it was spraying...maybe that's how it got on the wheel etc.

Hey, I'm just as concerned as you are, but when someone metioned "make an 'owned' pic of it", I just got inspired. I really hope his car turns out okay, but these pictures just shout out for the photoshop treatment.
