Default How do you clean the suede seats?

I have coffee stains and other stains that i dont know what it is, (bought car used), the middle part of my seats is starting to have yellowish/brownish rings, light rings of blots of spilled liquids, yeah sounds nasty ... but im afraid to use some cleaning products which will mess up the seats, do you guys have any recommendations on products or techniques?

is300 2003 base model with black leather/ suede middles.

THANKS!

I've been wondering how I should clean mine as well! I've been told many different methods but they all sound scary as the person hasn't done it them selves yet

If they are organic stains like coffee I'd try an enzyme cleaner like Nature's Miracle. You can get it at pet stores and probably Amazon. Just spray it on and let it sit and many times stains will go away. Try it on a hidden spot first.
