Did you use a "Holts type" can of cleaner? This is the normal way to bugger up the look of the cloth.
A simple scenario....would you wash your hair and not rinse the shampoo out?
You need to use a Vax or industrial carpet cleaner on the seats to clean them properly. Dont worry about vanish or cleaning stuff just warm not hot water will do the trick! You can hire the equipment from hire shops or some Band Q type places...
If you really are worried about spraying water about and i dont blame you, use a hand held "flit" gun or similar device to spray the water with more control and then use the wet and dry cleaner to suck it dry again. Leave the windows open for a few hours and all should be well again.
If really worried, damp a sponge and wipe it all over and see if it makes a bit of diference. i doubt it but worth a try.
I have cleaned all my cars for the last twenty years with a wet cleaner probably twice a year and its never hurt any of them including my blue clothed Multi!

Just dont get it tyooo wet...slow and careful is the order of the dya!
