Pirelli Edition alcantara seat advice
« on: February 08, 2017, 10:25:15 pm »
Need to clean/treat my seats. Im covered on the leather part but havent got a clue for the tyre tread alcantara section of the seats.

Any recommendations for cleaning and protecting products for this section of the seats ?

cheers, andy

If they're already dirty some alcantara cleaner and a light brush/ microfibre dab and twist, followed by a light brush or hoover to stand the fibres back up.

Then to keep them clean easier, gtechniq Fabric protector

Alcantara is extremely durable.

I had an alcantara flat bottom steering wheel in my 3 series and this guide helped me make it come up brand new:

Mine was 10x worse than the one in this guide but with some elbow grease it came up new!

thanks guys, they are not too bad in all honesty but I've treated the leather part and might as well make a full job of it, wish me luck!

How'd it go? also once you have restored it the general consenus is to use Gtechniq i1 Fabric protector, to help fight dirt
