I'm a fan of 303 Aerospace Protectant for conditioning and UV protection for all vinyl products. MB Tex is vinyl.

I use Mother's in the red bottle. Not only does it clean very well but it moistures the leather / MB-Tex for longer life.

Congrats on your great looking wagon! My 2015 is the one of the best Benz's I've owned.

Attached is a photo of some the products I'm fond of (have tried everything).

My wagon has leather so I use MB's leather foam which states for leather only. For MB Tex I'd try the 1Z products made in Germany. Here's a link to their site with reviews:

I also threw in a photo of Wolfgang's Exterior Trim Sealant which I love for the exterior.

For MB-Tex, stay away from true leather cleaners/lotions, will not help and may make the seating surface excessively slippery. Stick to warm water and mild soap or 303 Aerospace type vinyl conditioners.

soapy water for vinyl will give you the same results as with expensive and sometimes more abrasive cleaners. just make sure you dont soak it and follow up with a dry cloth right away.
