Suede Care

Greetings again! Looking for some direction again. What products can be used to care for the suede (and leather) seats in my Mustang Cobra? While the leather is easy to care for, you can't use leather cleaners/conditioners on the suede. There seems to be some products designed for suede clothing, but I doubt there would be any UV protection. I've thought about 303 Fabric Guard but it says nothing about use on suede. Any thoughts?

Suede is a pain. It'd be easier just to buy new seats. No lie.

A mixture of water and woolite and a barbers razor for the pilled fibers.

Thanks for the info. I do agree that suede is a pain (but I do think they look great). Although I'd rather avoid new seats, I did buy some custom neoprene seat covers for the front and back. Looks good and I don't worry about my kid's feet on the seats. When I really want to show off, I remove the seat covers, otherwise, better than sitting on towels! Looky-loo's do seem impressed when they see suede.

Connoly hide care will work on uncoated leather. You won't like it's kerosene smell, but that seems to be the only option.
