Autoglym car interior shampoo did mine brilliantly, but they aren't alcantara. I think it will be the same though.

Chris,

Found this on a furniture web site;

ALCANTARA
Cleaning and care
Alcantara is a soft and durable faux suede, easily cleaned using just mild soap and water. To keep your furniture looking new simply wipe over with a damp cloth periodically then give it a soft brushing. Removable covers can be machine washed @30C. Allow to dry naturally, replace covers and brush over. Under no circumstances should solvents or dry cleaning be used.

Spillage removal for Alcantara and faux suede
Egg, beer, milk, cream, chocolate, ice cream: wipe with mild detergent solution then rinse.
Blood: mild detergent solution, repeated several times if necessary.
Coffee, tea, wine, grass, ketchup, alcohol: wash off with mild detergent solution, if discoloured treat with citric acid solution then rinse well.
Chewing gum: liberally apply with ethyl alcohol and remove.
Fatty foods, ink pens, shoe polish: dab with a clean cloth soaked in ethyl alcohol then treat with mild detergent solution and rinse off.

I'd test on an inconspicous bit first just in case.

DaveW.

thanks guys, they arent stained as such just with them being blue after 3 years they are a bit grubby. I will try a bit of soap and water and see what happens.
