Default Stained my back seat

I got a big pizza greese stain on my back seat from a couple of days ago and I was wondering if there is a good way of removing it completely?

Shampoo with dish soap... well that would be my first guess

I would use a carpet/upholstery cleaner first. Something you can spray on, let soak, then either dab or vacuum off.

Blue Coral from Wal-mart is what I use. It is color safe and gets out most stains. Like $4.

I'd go to a detailer. They have great products. Better than anything you or I could buy in stores. I had some grease on my carpet and they used a degreaser and some sort of air compressor to wash the stains out. Came out great! You might pay a bit for the work, but it would be worth it.

I don't think it was a shop vac. It didn't suck the water and degreaser out, it forces (or pushes?) it out with pressurized air. (For lack of better terms)
