People recommend a woolite to water mixture to clean alcantra. I don't spray anything on my alcantra seats to protect them. They are still one of the cleanest sets of recaros I've seen. I have a fabric brush to clean them every once in a while to get the dust and dirt out. That seems to work well. Alcantra seats seem to develop a dark or smooth patch where the seat belt rubs against the seat so I purchased those fabric seat belt comfort guards and placed it in between the seat belt and the seat.

I see they updated their website. Years ago it was much more primitive than that. They've also updated their cleaning and maintenance section.
