DIRECTIONS:
Make sure the surface is clean and free of dirt. Shake well. Test in an inconspicuous area. Spray 6-8″ away from the surface. Spray evenly and thoroughly but do not oversaturate. Remove any excess by blotting with a clean paper towel immediately. Allow the surface to air dry at room temperature for 30-60 min. Reapply and allow the surface to air dry at room temperature for an additional 24 hrs. It may take up to 72 hrs to achieve peak repellency. For best results, reapply every 4-6 months.
What makes DetraPel® different from its competitors?
Non-Toxic
DetraPel® formulas are non-toxic. Fluorochemicals / PFAS found in other liquid repellents are harmful and have been linked to cancer and birth defects. DetraPel® formulas are water-based PFAS-free using only natural and safe ingredients.
Longer Lasting
DetraPel® formulas can last up to 6 months if applied properly. Other leading brands only last a few weeks to a couple of months.
Safe On All Surfaces
DetraPel® sprays are invisible to the eye and don’t change the look or feel of your fabrics. Other leading brands may leave behind white streaks or damage the surface they are applied to. With DetraPel® you can rest assured that your fabrics will stay looking new longer.
What are fluorochemicals and why are they dangerous?
Check out our fluorochemicals / PFAS page to learn more about their dangers to humans, pets and the environment and how to reduce your exposure to them.
How soon after applying DetraPel® Auto Fabric & Carpet Protector, can I use or drive my vehicle?
We suggest applying two coats of DetraPel® Auto Fabric Protector, 30 minutes apart and leaving the solution to dry overnight. It is recommended to leave any sprayed surface untouched for 24 hours, however if you’re unable to wait that long – please ensure that the protected surface is dry before using it, as it requires time to cure. Please keep in mind that drying times may vary depending on temperature and humidity levels.
What sort of surfaces can I use DetraPel® Auto Fabric Protector on?
DetraPel® Auto Fabric Protector is safe to use on almost any fabric surface in your vehicle. Your seats, carpet, floor mats, headliners, door panels, trunk mats, dashboards, booster seats and more can last longer with DetraPel® protection.
Can it be used on smooth leather or vinyl surfaces?
DetraPel Fabric Protector is not recommended for smooth leather, faux leather, or vinyl surfaces of any kind.
How long does it last?
Depending on the use case, one coating of DetraPel® can last 4-6 months if applied properly. Reapply DetraPel® after every time you clean your car interior with water or a solvent-based cleaner. Protected surfaces that encounter high abrasion (such as driver’s seat and floor mats) may require reapplication more frequently.
Is DetraPel® safe to use on infant car seats or near my kids?
Absolutely. At DetraPel®, we put your family’s safety first. We want you to have the peace of mind in knowing that our products do not contain harmful chemicals that are known to be dangerous to you, your kids or your pets. So rest assured you can safely use DetraPel® on any infant product.
Will it change the appearance or feel of new seats?
No. DetraPel® does not change the look or feel of any protected surface. However, we do recommend testing in a hidden area for compatibility before a full application.
Do I need to use any special fabric or upholstery cleaners to clean stains after treatment?
No. In most cases a spill on a surface that has been protected by DetraPel® will not penetrate the protective barrier. A liquid spill will bead up and roll off or sit on top of the treated surface. Use a dry cloth or paper towel to wipe/dab up any remaining liquid. If the spill occurs with force or is left to sit on the surface, then the liquid will begin to seep between the fibers of the surface. A quick response is ideal, but when it’s not possible you may need to pour a small amount of water on the area that has been penetrated. The water will lift the colored liquid off the surface’s fibers. Lightly wipe/dab the wet surface until it appears that the stain has been lifted. The surface should dry without any staining. If there still appears to be some staining, pour a little more water and dab again. In very rare circumstances you may need to use soap to remove the rest of the stain.
How much can I protect with one can of DetraPel®?
A 200 ml (6.8 oz) bottle can cover 20.4 ft²
A 150 ml (5 oz) bottle can cover 15 ft²
A 75 ml (2.5 oz) bottle can cover 7.5 ft²

As a parent of two toddlers, I love how much easier this product makes it to clean up after them in the car. I’m also a fan of it being a green product that actually works!

My kid spilled juice on the back seat and I was able to clean it up very easily. Totally worth it.
Brian J. –
This works better then Scotchgaurd, Would recommend over other products
Rick –
I own a detailing business, and I can confidently say this is one of the best water repellent products out there. We’ve gone through many products, and usually with the non-toxic ones you sacrifice on performance. But DetraPel works well and our customers appreciate that it’s a greener product.
Charlie Adams –
Comes out in a fine mist. Make sure you do at least two coats. It’s good to go side to side on the first coat, then up and down on the second coat. That’s how I make sure that I haven’t missed a spot. If you don’t do it like this then chances are you will have holes in your coverage and won’t be satisfied with the performance.

Saved my coffee from ruining my front seat!

best one i’ve used and no bad smell
josh c –
This product is great. The only thing I would say that you have to really give it a lot of time to dry, and to let it dry even longer in the hot, humid weather. The bottle says 24 hours, but it took closer to two full days with the humidity.

As a mom I think this product is super helpful. I’m cleaning out the car less often now, simple rinse and paper towel to clean up any food spills on the back seat! 5 stars!

Eduardo Javier –
I found this at Advanced Auto – it’s way better than the Scotchgard I used to buy. Plus i heard that Scotchgard is pretty toxic, so better to use a more eco-friendly product that works well too.
