Any tips for cleaning puke off of a car seat?

DS puked in his convertible car seat this morning. Chat Icon I've wiped it down, but I want to try to get rid of the smell and stains. What do you use to clean the car seat? It's all over the straps and cover. Should I try to take the cover off and wash it? It's a Britax Marathon. TIA.

You can definitely throw the cover in the washing machine. I have done it many times without an issue.

We've done the same thing. I have even thrown the straps in too even though it says not to. They came out fine. Just let everything air dry.

ITA.

I've done it many times with the infant seat - and it air dries pretty quickly.

The manual says to hand wash the cover, but not to machine wash it. Do you think it would be okay to throw in the machine on the delicate cycle and air dry it? It's an expensive seat so I don't want to ruin the cover.
