Also, moving your thread to Detailing 101 since you're asking a question, not sharing tips and techniques for cleaning Alcantara.


My personal advice to anyone reading this into the future... avoid cars, truck and s.u.v.s that have suede and/or Alcantara fabrics because they are such a pain to maintain and take too much extra time and care to avoid screwing them up.

Stick with leather, cloth or vinyl, time-proven materials that the average person can work on and maintain.

I know Swissvax makes a specific cleaner, not sure about any others.

This is your best bet.

Be careful. I've left permanent stains on my STI seats from using products weren't safe. I'd say try using regular water and MF towel with light pressure.
