Got a dodge Magnum in and trying to determine what the center material of the seats are…

Looks like fabric made to look like alcantara.

My understanding is, that alcantara is just a fancy low nap microfiber that is made to look like suede. And it is really expensive when ordered on steering wheels and shift knobs:)

Use a very light fabric or dedicated alcantara cleaner by hand and you should be good to go.

BTW, the material looks very clean and only appears to have very ligh dirt/dust. You probably could get away with just cleaning with water and a MF towel and see how much dirt is lifted.

Yes, alcantara. I once did a Dodge Charger SRT with those same kind of seats. I used Folex, as the label directions say to use. No brushes, no steamer, just my hand in a glove and cotton terry towels. Came out perfect.

Thanks brother.
Psshh! I don't even know what to say about that except I'm not worthy. [emoji4]
Not sure if you've ever had the pleasure of meeting Mike Phillips in person, but he's cool as heck + you'll never find another person who can engage a conversation about detailing quite like him. Textbook like professionalism.

Thanks guys, we used McKee’s Total interior cleaner. Came out great! Had I known it was Alcantara, I would have used my Sonax Alc cleaner.

The car looks great. Nice work. Those seats look new, low mileage, or just very well maintained?

I was hoping there would be exterior pics. Looking forward to your write up.

I bought a new phone today... So that means my stash of “relevant photos” are no longer going to be available from now on... Thanks for jinxing it, thanks a lot! Lol. J/k.

But seriously I have none of my photos on this new phone. Guess I better get busy and make some more! [emoji6]
