Recently while on a short trip we got wet in rain and ended up accidentally staining the seats. How can I get rid of the stains?

Hello All,
I am in a serious trouble. Recently while on a short trip we got wet in rain and to avoid soiling the seats on my Thar Roxx we purchased some towels locally. However later when we reached home we realised the colour was imprinted on the seats. I visited the 3M guys and even they were unable to remove it. They said if they used harsh chemicals it will ruin the leathers. I am currently still in disbelief that this colour wont go.
If anyone had similar issue please suggest what can I do.

Here’s what BHPian Catamaran added to the discussion:
Had the same issue when my Mom’s saree got printed in the seats . I took the car to the local washing station and they removed it by applying some kind of seat shampoo plus rubbing using a slightly rough sponge. It didn’t go fully though. Happened again after a week and that is when I decided to install the seat covers (similar color and pattern as the original seats).
Meanwhile, BHPian Kosfactor said this regarding the matter:
I can think of Acetone, bleach, vinegar or a fabric color remover. Try these in a small patch and see if it works. Else I suggest getting the seat cover fixed at the upholstery shop.
