Default Cleaning JDM ITR seats?

Can anyone give me some suggestions as to what I should use to clean my JDM Type-R seats? They are far from filthy, but I need to get the little bit of dirt that is on them, off. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated as I need to get this done for a show next weekend. Thanks alot,

Ben

PS sorry if this has been asked a lot before but I searched and didn't find anything.

Go to some asian car accesories place in the city and look for wet towels seat cleaning packs. They do wipe and clean very well since design for common family soy sauce accidents!

personally, I prefer not to use any cleansers with chemicals, so I juts stick with some warm water and a towel. Works pretty good.

^^^I read somewhere that water will ruin the finish? I am with you on staying away from chemicals but if it isn't possible there's nothing I can do. Any more suggestions?

you aren't soaking it in water, just a slightly damp cloth does the trick.

No what you gotta do is go to wilsons leather store buy a suede cleaner which is gonna be this long eraser and a brush and that should do the trick

^^^Well I actually found a suede shoe brush in my dad's shoe cleaning stuff and it cleaned them pretty well. I just need to get out the dirt on one seat from the seat belt rubbing, and the driver's side from people getting in and out.
