Default Perforated Seat Cleaning?

For those with the perforated seats...how are you cleaning the dirt stuck in those holes?

^ hahaha I have some of those stubborn white specks of dust stuck in them, but I haven't tried to take them out yet. Maybe sharp needle-nose tweezers will do the trick?

Natural bristle brush for cleaning leather upholstery + good leather cleaner + powerful vacuum cleaner.

Try a vacuum with the crevice tool. If that fails, give the spec a poke with an awl or toothpick whilst holding the vacuum near. The loosened particle will either get sucked up or pushed into the seat. Either way, it is no longer visible.

I always spread the seat seam crevices while vacuuming, giving the suction a chance to clean things out. Accumulated dirt tucked in there can lead to early stitching failure. Amazing how stuff accumulates there if one doesn't keep after it.

Best cleaning device I've purchased in a very long while if you have a compressor.
