Freeze it, ice cubes in a freezer bag so you don't soak the seat and once its frozen solid it'll chip off. Takes a while and you'll need some patience but works a treat..

I've used this method to get it off clothes, I chipped away using my finger nails so no chance of any damage. You just need to keep feezing it as it softens when it warms up. Shouldn't damage the material as long as you take your time
