I used this on the carpet and the seats and center arm rest. https://www.3m.com/3M/en_US/company.../?N=5002385+8710875+8740612+3294466450&rt=rud

Safe for our suede or "alcantara"?

Yes, didnt change the feel or texture, still allows material to breathe. Our "suede" effect lol

Was just looking up the 303 fabric guard and came across a thread with this.

"Thank you for contacting Gold Eagle Co. We do not recommend using our 303® Fabric Guard or any 303® product for Alcantara, as the products do not bond well with that type of material. If you have questions, please contact us."

Thanks,

i dont think our seats are alcantara.. its suede..

Alcantara is just a copyright brand name for suede. Although our seats aren't officially alcantara it is a suede material that is probably basically the same thing.

Just used most of the can of
Scotchgard™ Auto Fabric & Carpet Protector
for the carpets and seats and it came out fine.

Emptied 2 cans on carpets & seats last Aug 2017.. seats are still looking fresh right now!

Suede brush and eraser. Add some elbow grease and it should look decently new.

they will look fresh as long as you arent dirty when you sit on it.. i havent done anything to mine and it still looks like the day i got it.. 5.5k later

Yup this. Just dont get in your car dirty. Same here. In and out car at least 5 times a day and after a year(almost) seats still look new. Car still has new car smell and i dont use anything. Just be clean.

Personally I wouldn't want to add chemicals to my car if I don't have to, just on the off chance that it might get dirty. If it gets dirty, I'll clean it then with soap and water.

The back seats, on the other hand, I want to get some Wet Okole seat covers for, when they start making them. The kids sit back there and that neoprene is so easy to clean. As of now, they don't have anything for our rear seat, but I spoke with them and they're working on it.

I had my mother take a ride in my car. She had a pen in her hair, after she got out, I noticed pen marks on the headrest of my passenger seat.

Any recommendations on how to take that out.

Tell everyone your mom signed the seat and she's famous for something.

But really... I'd go to a detailing place to see if they have any answers. I think since it's been set for over 24 hours, it's going to be a bitch to remove. If you REALLY want to try it yourself, do a search for it. I'm not sure if it's on the Alcantara itself, but I found this thread on a quick search (See EXELR8's post): https://www.audiworld.com/forums/s4...ean-ball-point-pen-ink-off-alcantara-2661285/
