Default Best way to treat/clean Nulux seats

What is the best treatment for the 2015 IS 350 f-sport seats

I had to take the passenger seat out because of a mouse dying under the carpet.

So, I have the seat in my living room and figured I would treat it best.

This has been discussed before. Correct me if I am wrong but the winning methods came down to water and a micro fiber to clean it and if you want to add some protectant, use some 303. This method has worked great for me.

I'm sure it would be fine, however, personally, I'm not a huge fan of those Armour All leather wipes or leather wipes in general. I'll usually wash with water and a microfibre. sometimes I'll use some baking soda in the water, then finish it off with a sealant.

I personally haven't tried it yet but I've read that Lexol Vinylex works well. Will try that soon.

Personally I don't like using product in my car. I've been able to keep it clean by just wiping it occasionally with a damp microfiber cloth.

I know our cars are Nulux* and not real leather, but I still find baking soda and water work perfectly fine with our cars. I originally found this concoction in one of my dads old Cadillac drivers manuals for cleaning the seats and have carried it on to my other vehicles and this one as well, seems to work well for me.
