    I've been toying with the idea of doing a DIY project, making a synthetic suede/Alcantara dash surface for my daily, for a more 'race inspired' and glare-free look.

    How do you keep it clean though? Dashes seem to accumulate so much dust/grime. That would be my fear of getting it, say, on a Stradale.

    I used to have a car with an Alcantara headliner. I just used a lightly moistened MF cloth to clean the Alcantara. It worked very well.
