I1 Smart Fabric

Overall Auto Express rating

3.0

Price: £29.99 Size: 1l

I1 Smart Fabric comes in a choice of sizes. The nozzle has an erratic spray, so it was difficult to get an even coating over the fabric, yet after coating it and leaving it to dry, it performed relatively well. Cola beaded off instantly and it resisted staining from the butter. However, hot coffee defeated it and soaked into the upholstery, leaving a nasty brown stain.
