a search will yeild good answers (You just need to go to the advanced options and search by relavancy to avoid seemingly random threads)
short answer...Suede brush for dust, and dabbing with a mix of wollite and warm watr for anything else. Something tells me steam cleaning is bad for the adhesives that hold the suede on

Armoral Carpet and upholstery cleaner!!!! My suede was crusty and black from mechanics putting their nasty greasy lttle paws all over it and I no **** thought I would have to have it recovered, but Armoral works miracles!!! Just spray it on and let it soak for a few minutes use a toothbrush or similar brush to scrub it (going in one direction) you will be amazed!

I steam cleaned my seats (previous owner coffee stains) and they turned out fine. but the ones on the doors are trickey to do because of thew water getting everywhere from the steam cleaner.
