If it is fabric (-wool) that is stained, a steamer is the way I clean them. A detail shop will likely use a tool called a soil extractor that immediately removes most of the moisture. The steam actually causes the dirt to release from the fabric fibers. Removing the loosened dirt without smearing or re-embedding it is where the difficulty lies.
