Seats in our Audi are 1/2 n 1/2 and the inserts need a bit of a clean, was wondering if anyone on here has some tips for techniques or products?

or if there is an alternative insight website somewhere smile ?

cheers

Funnily enough, www.alcantara.com - look under Maintenance for the pdf on how to care for the material.

not completely sure it's Alcantara now scratchchin are they in fact (suede v alcantara) that different? if not, then I guess the methods for cleaning must be similar.

Alcantara is a man made material that can be washed. Suede, primarily lambs skin, should not be washed, in fact moisture will decrease the life of suede.
