Do NOT use a magic eraser as a standard solution - you will end up wearing away the coating. Get some good cleaning chemicals. Stay away from the big brands. Go with what the actual pros use, like Koch Chemie or CarPro. If you go with Koch Chemie, you can clean it with Pol Star and follow it up with conditioning it with Leather Star. You can use Pol Star to clean the rest of the interior as well. If you want to treat other non leather surfaces (which should be everything but the seats) you can use Top Star. For in between cleans to just wipe down surfaces you can use All Surface Cleaner which comes pre-diluted and ready to spray. Also, keep in mind that when you use a cleaner you must follow it up by wiping it off with a distilled water wet rag to remove the chemical from the surface, as per the instructions. Otherwise all you are doing is leaving cleaner on the surface which will in turn react with the dirt on your clothes/skin the next time you sit on it and transfer it to the seat. As others have mentioned, you should probably also look for a cover. Maybe not a permanent one but something you can easily throw on or off depending on how dirty you are. I have these for when I go to the gym. Also good idea to have these just in general in case it ever rains while you are wearing denim. The last thing you want is indigo transferring from your jeans to the seats. I’ve had my Tucson with the same interior for a year and the seats look perfect. Granted I’m not outdoorsy nor do I work outside. Bottom line is we decided to get these light color seats because they look beautiful, which sadly means you WILL have to baby them if you want them to stay that way.
