i use a damn (not wet) cloth and some fabric cleaner... diluted so it doesnt fade the material... works ok... but doesnt bring it back to life...
but meh good enough for me...

would be good to hear proper instructions from someone in the car detail business thou :)

get meguirs cloth and trim at ur local autobahn cost me around 18 bux a bottle. Spray it onto the dirty areas leave for 5 mins den use a damp towel to work into the applied areas. Does a good job! u can also get urself a bottle of scotch guard. about 30 bux a bottle and apply it once eveyhting is dried to protect the seats later on. Beware! do this too much and ur suede like any other material which is cleaned often will eventually wear it out!

well, when I was using the material for my rear seat, I just washed it woolen cycle woolen wash 30 centigrade ... worked like a charm. But it does invovle getting the whole covers off and that can be a bit of a pain ...
