It's not suede, which is a form of leather. The OEM USDM ITR seats are a cloth called alcantara to provide a little grippiness in hard corners.

Are the seats actually soiled or are you just trying to bring the nap back?

I want to clean mine as well. No stains or soils just want to keep them looking good. What do you guys think about the stuff they use on shoes to keep moisture out? Do you think that would help protect the seats from any mishaps?
