What kind of cloth seats in a 05 Corolla XRS?

I was always wondering what kind of cloth or type of fabric are my 2005 Corolla Seats. They are not leather but they are more like meshy(?)

Also. how do i go about cleaning them? Getting rid of stains?

Thanks.

Yes, it is a very special lightweight micro-fiber hollow-fabric meant to be very grippy and very durable. It is much better than leather in practical terms.

It is actually quite expensive if you check the price. I remember Toyota gave me a full cleaning kit when I took delivery of it and it had a fabric cleaner as well. You might want to check with your dealership for a fabric cleaner you can use.

I used Blue Coral Dri-Clean upholstery cleaner on my '05 XRS after the "candy bar incident". It worked, though it took a couple treatments before it looked perfect. Good luck!
