Removing Jean Dye from Lexus NuLuxe Seats?

[Stage3]

Well, I figure I'll use this as my introductory post. Hey everyone! My name is Carlos and I'm an experienced weekend detailer. A friend of mine has a 2014 Lexus IS250 with Grey (might as well be white) NuLuxe interior and she has managed to (as expected) transfer blue dye from her jeans to the seat. It's not really bad in it's current state, since she's had the car for less than 1 year, but you can tell that the transfer is taking place as the drivers seat now has a blue tint to it. I remember when she bought the car, the dealer said that it comes off with soap, water, and elbow grease. Well, we tried that with no luck. I also tried Detailer’s Pro Series Total Interior Cleaner with no luck. My biggest concern is that since it's not leather and not vinyl, I don't want to treat it like those materials and possibly damage the material. Does anyone have any advice for this material? I've removed jean dye from leather seats before, but I just don't know if I should go the same route with these seats. Thanks in advance!

I've cleaned this off several seats with an all purpose cleaner and warm cloth. I believe it was Optimum Power Clean I used....

Thanks! How much effort did you use? The last time I cleaned leather, it took a bit of effort and an interior brush, but it was much more engrained than this seat. I haven't tried with a warm cloth yet, so I'll give that a go next. Thanks for the tip!

I rubbed it briskly but it didn't take a ton of effort to remove it and both were leather, one gray and the other saddle.....

I am not trying to be a smart a$$ ,but did you look in the owners manual?
I know the toyota Prius recommends a special cleaner for the seat material they have.

I use 1z deep plastic cleaner and leather master ink stick.

I used the einszett deep plastic cleaner as well to take jean dye out of a 2013 Lexus gx460's driver seat. Worked very well.
