kwalker Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 Hey there, I just wanted to see if anybody here had any experience cleaning the suede on the lightnings seats? Mine aren't filthy by any means, I just wanted to give them a gentle cleaning. What product would you guys suggest? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Team Adam's Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 Its been awhile since I've been around an "L"... is it REAL suede or alcantara? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaleenJOE Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 alcantara dylan. When i had mine i used some woolite diluted with water and in a spray bottle and cleaned them great and made them look new. If you have any fraying on your drivers bolster some sand paper can fix that as well and make it look new again.

Tundra5-0 Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 On this same subject. I have Katzkin "suedeskin" and am not sure what would work on them. Would Woolite work on these too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woolite mixed in a low concentration is safe for darn near anything as long as its not REAL suede and you don't saturate the surface. Mist it onto a clean towel and lightly wipe at any surface dirt.

No fraying yet but I know that's a common problem with these seats. What grit would you say? ~220 maybe? I am loving my truck, I need to get it polished up and take a few pictures.
