Default Recaro millenium seat cleaning questions

i am planning to put recaro millenium seats in my car that has been sitting in my basement for a while. the bad thing is that is just a little bit dirty and need some cleaning. i believe this seat is fabric or alcantara. but my question is would steam cleaning be better than going to to get some spray from the store? im afraid that if i use some type of spray bought from the store will do more harm then good. i've never done steam cleaning before so i don't know how the outcome is? is it really good? i know a local place that does steam cleaning for interiors. well here is what the seat looks like. you can't notice, but the middle is a bit dirty.

Water and a cloth. If that doesn't work, I hear Woolite is pretty good.

I always use woolite with hot water in a bucket and dip a towel in there to wipe down my cloth/alacantra seats. Keeps them looking great!

We steam clean RECAROS all the time and they come out great. Just use a mild cleaning agent and don't put to much pressure on it so that it stretches the material. You will be amazed at hoe much dirt you will get out of the seats. You should be fine! Good Luck!
