If they are like the seats that came in my C230, the seating surface (center section on the front of the seat) is leather and the rest is MB Tex. I used Lexol on the leather part. The remainder I cleaned with a damp cloth.

SO there is two different types of fabric used? Do you use a microfiber cloth or a cotton towel?

This is a picture of the seat that came in my car. The center part (with perforations) is leather. The rest of it is MB-Tex. I use a cotton cloth to clean both materials. I have had inadvertently sprayed Lexol on the MB-Tex. It does not seem to bother the MB-Tex.
