Default Greasy spot on new interior

I transported one of my bicycles in the back of my brand new Pilot and the chain ring made a greasy mark on the back of second row passenger carpet that attached to the seat. (f the seat were laying down it would be part of the cargo area carpet) The interior is grey so of course the spot sticks out like a sore thumb. Before I experiment with various carpet spot cleaners....I thought I'd ask you guys.

Any recommendations?

Try Simple Green, it's a pretty effective grease cutter. Many Tacoma guys have used it to clean their engines with great results.

We use Sparkle glass cleaner... yep sounds stupid, but grandma taught us.
It is not the best glass cleaner, but does a great job on carpet.. took grease from my step sons work boots out, pet stains of all sorts...etc..
Just spray it on and use a clean towel or paper towel & rub back & forth ... may have to repeat if deep embedded stain


Buddy of mine swears by 303... link is below
