SONAXUpholstery and Alcantara Cleaner (206141), Foaming Alcantara (Synthetic Suede) Cleaning, Dirt and Grime Build-Up Cleaner for Upholstery and Alcantara, 8.45oz, 250 ml

Sonax cleaned up a 9 year-old Alcantara center console cover that was shiny after years of sweaty forearms and body oil. It was used with a suede brush and suedstone afterward to lift the nap. Sonax left the console looking like it was new, and the fragrance is refreshingly clean and simple, not cloy in the least. Both cars in my house are filled with Alcantara, so we're looking forward to cleaning the rest of the interior.

I have had my Alcantara steering wheel for about 2 years now (I am the second owner); it was in very good condition when I purchased it, however, I hate to admit this, but I had yet to clean it….until this afternoon; the top portion of the steering wheel was so matted that it looked (and felt) like smooth leather - shiny and tacky; I thought it was beyond saving, however, with this product, it brought it back to life with very little effort; I sprayed some of the foam on a clean microfiber cloth (I used white to see just how much grime I was lifting out) and basically went through every part of the steering wheel scrubbing…. with just my fingers …..and I couldn’t believe how much grime was embedded in the Alcantara; after scrubbing, I let it sit for 10 minutes, then took a clean microfiber cloth and firmly twisted it back and forth around each part of the steering wheel to capture any remaining moisture or grime; the steering wheel went from matted, shiny, and tacky, to a velvety feel, where the material could be brushed in various directions (as intended)….absolutely amazing; The amount of scrubbing involved (and foam product) is all relative to the wear / condition of your steering wheel to begin with; I spent a total of 20 - 30 minutes on mine and I didn’t even need to use a brush, that’s how effective this product is; it also smells really good; thus, if you think your Alcantara steering wheel is beyond hope, think again and give this product a try; it has high ratings for a reason; also, a little bit of foam goes a long way…I used quite a bit, but the can still feels full.

Very good cleaner, does good job removing stains

The SONAX Upholstery and Alcantara Cleaner does a great job at lifting dirt and grime from Alcantara and fabric upholstery. The foaming action helps break down buildup without soaking the material, and once dried, the fabric feels fresh and soft again. It’s especially effective for steering wheels and seats that tend to get grimy over time.That said, it does require some patience. You need to agitate it properly with a brush or microfiber cloth, and drying time can be longer than expected. Also, while it works well on light to moderate dirt, really deep stains might need multiple applications.Overall, a solid cleaner if you take your time with it—just don’t expect instant results!

The wheel was looking really bad but this product restored it to like new condition with little effort. Good stuff!

Phenomenal is the only way to describe this.Years of grime on my 2012 CTSV alcantara wiped away in less than 15 minutes. Both the front seats came out 95% of the way on the first go round. The steering wheel took two treatments but everything feels like it was day 1. Amazing, amazing, amazing.Will purchase again.

I was pretty skeptical, but I was hearing great things about this product so I decided to give it a SERIOUS test. When I initially used it, I cleaned up some alcantara covered seats and they looked new. After that, I wanted to test the extreme grime potential, really see what it could do. So a friend offered to let me give it a shot on a wheel that he thought was beyond help. It took quite a bit of elbow grease but goodness, I can’t even describe the level of shock I had when I saw how much grime this cleaner pulled off of there. I should’ve taken a picture of the cup I rinsed the brush in. Completely black, darker than my soul. Wildly impressed by this cleaner, if this test didn’t prove to me how fantastic it is, absolutely nothing would. If you think your fabric is grime covered and potentially ruined, this will change your mind.

I bought this for my C8 with the Alcantara wheel and seats. When I got the car the steering wheel looked leather and felt like tar, it was disgusting. After maybe 5 short rounds of cleaning with the Sonax it is close to brand new again. BE AWARE, in my car at least I accidentally went over the red leather stripe at the top of the wheel and this definitely pulled color off of it, the directions warned me of that so I cant fault the product plus with my light pass it didn't pull enough to be visible. As far as the intended use this has been fantastic for the wheel and the two tiny blemishes in the seat.
