Cleaner recommendations for softex seats (TRD ORP)

[2222CareBearStare]

Any cleaner recommendations for the seats in a TRD ORP? I don't care for the shiny look and slippery feel, but want the seats to be clean and smell good.

I use P&S Express Interior. Works well, foams well, and leaves a clean smell. I'd pair it up with a scrub ninja, but a microfiber towel works just fine

I use Adams too, really good.

I use Adam's Polishes All-Purpose Interior Cleaner.

Thanks. The All purpose interior cleaner Gel, or the total interior cleaner? Adam's website mentions making sure the gel one doesn't remove the dye from the seats, and I don't want to chance it on a brand new car.

Do you mean the "Total Interior Cleaner" or something else. Maybe you can post a link... They seem to have a lot of products and weird naming.

Preventing damage to leather surfaces

Observe the following precautions to avoid damage to and deterioration of leather surfaces:

●Remove any dust or dirt from leather surfaces immediately.

●Do not expose the vehicle to direct sunlight for extended periods of time. Park the vehicle in the shade, especially during summer.

●Do not place items made of vinyl, plastic, or containing wax on the upholstery, as they may stick to the leather surface if the vehicle interior heats up significantly.

Cleaning the synthetic leather areas

Remove dirt and dust using a vacuum cleaner.

 Wipe it off with a soft cloth dampened with neutral detergent diluted to approximately 1%.

 Wring out any excess water from the cloth and thoroughly wipe off remaining traces of detergent and water.

Remove dirt and dust using a vacuum cleaner.

Sounds like Dawn dish soap and water to me

Sorry, Total Interior Cleaner.

I had a 2020 Rav4 Adventure with softex seats before I got my 4Runner, and whenever I had to clean the seats, I just used some soapy water and a microfiber cloth.
