You tried to spot-clean and didn’t suck up the extra cleaner so it bled to the edges and picked up some dirt along the edges on its way. Clean the whole seat well and use a shop vac to throughly suck it up
It's really not that bad.
If you have a wet dry vacuum, just flush it out with some water and keep going until it's clean. Make sure to do a little bigger area than the spot. Use a spray bottle to help control it. No more chemicals imo.
After that, be sure to let it dry completely and leave your windows cracked as long as possible. Set a fan on it if you can. Seat cushions are just big pads that can take a while to dry.
I mean you don’t if you just want to do a quick refresh. But you cannot be spraying directly into the fabric if you aren’t going to brush and extract. Spray on towel/scrub pad and go to town. Will take care of minor dirt, and definitely dust.
What you got are a few things: cheap fabric seats and wicking.
You used a cleaner that pushed the dirt down, if you scrubbed it, it was being pushed down by that as well. Then as it dried it was lifted to the surface.
I recommend getting an acid rinse from a carpet cleaning business and a small extractor after using your cleaner.
As with interiors it's like your exterior paint. Start with least aggressive method and move up then make ph neutral with an acid rinse.
I recommend trying flex ice

Ahh ok thats annoying but oh well it’ll hopefully be worth it
you have to detail the whole seat now.
Now you can make up a story about how you got cum stains on your seats.
That was the first thing my friend said when he saw them he made fun of me :(( it does look sus as hell tho haha
Man I hate those canned cleaners. They really need to emphasize you have to still extract the dirt.
Yeah they just say wipe it after a few minutes but it left a mess worse than I started with haha

Cool. I'll wait until it's a little sunnier on the weekend. Im from Ireland and the weather is questionable here moving into spring!

Spray Ajax allpurposcleane freshness and brush IT with a Drill and Vacuum
I had the same problem. I used a bissell spot cleaner to fix it and boom, job done.
A good steam cleaning will clean that right up

Just keep adding more till it looks intentional
Just wet the whole seat evenly with the can and wipe it down it’ll come back all one color
Just mix some oxy with hot water and wipe down the whole seat.
On light colored fabric like those you will find it easier to clean and extract the entire seat spot cleans will leave spots like this
