you can clean them with any cleaner, I mix a small amount with hot water and scrub with a wash cloth or terry type cloth. You can coat with any leather conditioner.
The trick is to not put too much of anything on them , so just use damp cleaner and damp conditioner. dont try to soak it down, you arent supposed to use an excess amount anyway

+1 on cleaning out the vented seat holes with a vacuum, but it should have been done while the product was still wet. You may have to dampen slightly with a damp towel to get it to come out. The dealer did tell me not to use anything but distilled water on a microfiber towel, but I don't listen to well at times

I have had good luck with Wolfgang leather cleaner and conditioner on my GTS with vented seats, and the trick is a little goes a long way. Dampen a microfiber towel with the cleaner and wipe everything down paying attention to steering wheel, shift ****, door pulls and anything that has lots of contact with skin oils. Evenly rub a quarter size amount of conditioner into a poly foam applicator and apply a light but even coat, buff off a few minutes later. It has not affected the stitching on the dash or seats, is not shiny or slick, and shows no signs of accumulating in the vent holes of the leather. I am not impressed by the smell, and am not sure why all the reviews say it smells great, but it appears to be doing a good job as a leather conditioner. I also use it on all our leather seats and couch in the family room and they look great.

Good help! Thanks to everyone for their advice, I'll get cracking on this ASAP and let you know how it turns out. I'm sure I am not the only Knucklehead to jack up their seats like this.

Leatherique is an incredible product that I've used to restore seats for years. The rejuvenating oil is an oil and doesn't dry hard, so I can't see it plugging the holes. The cleaner is great for removing the oil and regular maintenance. I tried all of the auto parts store stuff, I won't be going back.

I use a spray foam (resembles shaving cream, only lighter) to clean, spray on, wipe off, then the Meguiar's wipes for conditioning. And, yes, it helps to have the ventilation on while doing so.

see this video for the long method


or just use chemical guys leather cleaner, spay 2-3 times on a microfiber cloth and simply wipe your seats.

Does anyone have long term experience with Zaino Z-10? Other non P-Car forums speak highly of it, but I don't want to experiment on a investment vehicle. Thanks!

Been using Zaino Z10 for about 10 years. Great product. Great results.

That's what I have used successfully on perforated leather for over 10 years and it's still my go to product. Only other product that seems to get consistently good reviews is Zaino Z10 and Leather Masters. I have and still use Leather Masters but lately I keep reaching for the Leatherique in all our cars.

With any interior cleaning/conditioning product the best approach is to spray/apply the product on a microfiber first and then wipe the surface. This will allow full control of the application so no overspray, no extra product usage and typically better results.

Perforated leather can easily collect dust, dirt, grease, and grime, all of which accumulate into nasty gunks. Since the car seats are where we sit and contact the most, an important part of car care and maintenance is knowing how to clean perforated leather car seats.

always read which bottle you are pouring the cleaner from, Pinnacle Brand uses the same generic label and bottle for almost all their stuff making it easy to reach for the wrong item.

Using the shop vac and lightly pulling out the cleaner sounds like the ticket.
