Thank you
I have not been able to remove the blue stains. If anyone has any ideas please let me know. I hope no one else makes this mistake. I was just showing someone how the wiper worked with spray
As you know it sprays out with a lot of pressure. Only took 3 drops to stain the door. Live an learn I guess

I had a similar dumb moment a couple days ago. (i dont have. ct though).
I walked up to my model x and hit the unlock to show off my headlights to a friend and and i guess it was already unlocked so my passenger door popped open. The wind caught it and it hit my wifes car. I didnt even know i could open the passenger door like that lol. Needless to say i turned off the auto open doors

There's no doubt that the factory-installed washer fluid is... unsavory. I dumped mine at the first opportunity.

Tesla has used white for the interior for quite some time, so there are a number of threads over on TMC addressing this issue.

Basically start with gentle cleaners like soap, or a Magic Eraser, working gently...

I am not sure how the fabric will respond but curious if a little baking soda and peroxide can help remove these surface stains. That's annoying, sorry that happened.
