How old is the car Justin? The thing with alacantara is that it does tend to loose a bit of colour if you use some
Really strong stuff! I've only seen this happen once of twice mind out of hundreds  :signLOL:
My advice would be to use a light mix of water and Megs carpet and interior cleaner-the reason for the Megs is that your meant to use it from the bottle I.E spray it straight on, this means it's a fairly safe mix as it is so just use a small amount a a dilute down to be extra safe, try it on a small area 1st just to make sure you get no colour run, I doubt you will but there is always the risk,

Spray it on and work it in lightly using a soft brush and then vacuum  the area to remove most of the fluid you just sprayed on, then use a neat water mix or some more interior cleaner to remove the rest of the crap you just brought to the surface using the vacuum, repeat process as required  :happy2:
You've got my number if you need any help
