I have the same ones. I was hesitant at first to use them cause I thought I was cheating but no way! After using them once it makes life so much less stressful and the spring loaded part actually pushes the material down some so you have less of a chance of wrinkles or puckers around corners. Well worth the $20.

Thankyou for the responses! I choose to just go with the color that I had and to not distress it. Im going to re-do the seat again because it's actually for my personal bike. I will keep all these suggestions in mind when re-covering it once again.

It depends on what the stains are. I know sometimes WD-40 works pretty well on glue and other hard to get out stains. It's worth a shot to try. I have never had it ruin anything but I would test it out in a small corner first.
