Default best stuff to clean cloth uphosltery

I know this is not a corvette question but what is the best product to clean cloth seats with? Buying my son a ZR2 blazer that looks ok but the seats are dirty. Not torn but soiled with dirt and coffee stains it looks like. Anyone have any ideas what product works the best to remove grime?

I own a carpet cleaning company and when I clean upholstery in a home or car I use a cleaner that does not soak into the pad, you only want to clean the fabric and not the padding, otherwise it will take for ever to dry and as it dries dirt from the padding will wick up into the fabric. buy a chem made for upholstery, use a medium brush to agitate then rinse with a wet cloth, put a fan on it to help dry.

Do not use carpet cleaning cleaner, it is made to soak into the carpet, not stay on top like an upholstery cleaner.

Have had very good luck with two over-the-counter products:
One is Tuff Stuff Multi-Purpose Foam Cleaner. It's cheap, available everywhere and does a real good job.
The other is Blue Coral Upholstery Cleaner.
I use them in much the same manner as described in the video.
