My seat belts need a good clean as they have not been cleaned from I don’t know when. Do any members have any good cleaning recommendations or techniques for cleaning them.
Thanks
 
Fabric washing detergent and a brush works well.
 
Use a couple of clothes pegs to stop the belts retracting while they dry. After they have dried give them a spray with dry silicone, this will make them retract better and stop dirt build up on the webbing.
 
Pull them all they way out and shut the door on them. The pressure wash them when you wash the outside, making sure the buckle is still in the car
 
I have been warned against the jetwash technique as it could harm the integrity of the fabric and you might only find out a few milliseconds before you smash your brains out on the steering wheel in a crash.

However, I can imagine it would be ok to use a similar idea but with a garden hose to rinse them after using detergent.
