Default Seat Cleaning

Can anyone recommend the best method of cleaning the velour type fabric of the seats, that is not all leather seats. Thanks,

If you have the 'regular' seats, that insert is a fabric called Alcantara

I have that in my 2017 and use Tuffstuff upholstery cleaner on it

Amazon Amazon

Whatever cleaner you choose, do a spot test in a not-so-obvious location to check for colorfastness.

I spray the TuffStuff on the seat, gently work it in with a clean terry towel that has not been subjected to ANY fabric softeners. (All of my car towels are washed separately from other household towels, go through 2 rinses, NO SOFTENER, and dried). Then I take a second terry towel to the surface to 'fluff' the nap and help dry it.
