Re: How do you get water out of the Seats
If you have them dismantled, put each of the components into a large
thick plastic bag...arrange so that the opening of the bag is at the
bottom, get a wet/dry shop vac and seal the nozzle at the opening to
the bag on the bottom .... turn on the shop vac and let run for about
20-30 minutes. This will get most of the 'free' water from the foam.
The rest of the drying process is by evaporation .... although you can
speed up the process by 'repumping' the foam a few times in the
following days.
Then ........ go to www.westmarine.com and buy some paraformaldehyde
crystals (MildewGasz, etc.) put the crystals in the bag with the seat
and let it sit a few days in the sun, then pump down a FEW times so
that the gas enters allthe pores of the foam. This will prevent
mildew from growing ***inside the foam****. If mildew begins to grow
inside the foam it will make your seats smell like a wet, long dead
dog. You may have to repeat the paraF treatment a few times .... by
simply putting a large plastic bag (plus paraformaldehyde) over the
seat when youre not using the vehicle. Beware that Paraformaldehyde is
a very toxic gas and you should thoroughy 'air' out the vehicle/seat if
you use it.

Re: How do you get water out of the Seats
The following worked for me:
Place the seats in a small room or closet along with a dehumidifier. Turn
the dehumidifier on high and stuff what you can around the door to seal the
room. Check it once in a while to empty the reservoir. This process dried
my seats out in about 2 days.
