    Alcantra inserts on CTS-V Recaro seats

    I have a 2011 CTS-V coupe with Recaro seats, that are black leather around the edges with a yellowish alcantra insert on the back and seat cushion. The insert is dirty/stained in the area where my legs meet the front leather thigh support.

    I`ve used Leather Magic foam on it and it helped, but it`s not perfect. Would it be safe/advisable to try steam?

    Thanks for your help.

    Perhaps some diluted folex will do the trick

    Try hot water, and the wet vac it using a stiff brush.

    Warm water, Stiff brush and maybe some lightly diluted CG fabric cleaner should work great.
