Sorry 16:9 is a looser guy. I guess we all have preferences but 16:9 sucks for web, sucks for docs, sucks for books, it's only good for video.
Someone in another article recommended the Alcantara cleaner on Amazon this is the first one I saw... didn't do a deep search.

What spray cleaner do you guys use to clean the alcantara?
I was wondering if this $20 Sonax cleaner was worth it: https://www.amazon.com/Sonax-206141-Upholstery-Alcantara-Cleaner/dp/B00BBWJ16U/ref=sr_1_sc_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1494953995&sr=8-1-spell&keywords=alcnatara+cleaner
or can I get away with a $3 bottle of Tuff Stuff? https://www.amazon.com/Tuff-Stuff-Purpose-Cleaner-Cleaning/dp/B0009PCPNQ/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1494953867&sr=8-4&keywords=fabric+cleaner
edit: or can I even get away with just vacuuming and using a damp microfiber cloth?

This is the product I use whenever I'm detailing a clients car with Alcantara, suede or another kind of fabric, it works wonders and won't damage the fabric.
My team has a few hundred Surface Laptops that they support. I can attest that the link below works great. Spray it on, brush it in a bit (soft tooth brush, dry rough fingers that we are too manly to put lotion on, etc.), wait 20 minutes, wipe it off.

Mine is 1 year old and looking like this:
lower-right corner
lower-left corner
upper-right corner
EDIT: I tried all sort of things, including Sonax but nothing changed.
Pretty much the same as regular cloth. Alcantara requires special cleaning products though and to be a little more gentle when rubbing the product in. I feel that stains stick to alcantara more compared to regular cloth, so you will have to repeat product applciation a few times, which can be time consuming. Product
What year is your car?
Leather no it shouldn't crack like that after a year.
Alcantara, yes it can. Alcantara is terrible and is nothing but a royal pain to restore/care for. I use this to treat my alcantara.
They're a blend of Alcantara with some sort of polyurethane to make them more durable.
I use this stuff every week with a damn cloth per the instructions. It works well enough, but there's still a faint discoloration on the palm rests when I'm done. In some lighting it's barely visible, outdoors it's very noticeable.
I may try the toothbrush instead of cloth, though. Thanks!
I believe this is it: SONAX SONAX (206141) Upholstery and Alcantara Cleaner - 8.45 fl. oz. https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B00BBWJ16U/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_nyEHAbCZVRXHP
Haven't tried it because my Alcantara still looks nice but it does have good reviews.
I've been planning to buy a bottle of this for a few weeks to clean mine. It's probably snake oil in a bottle but it's still cheaper than inkjet printer ink!

I left mine at airport security check and the airport had to mail it to my house. The person put tape on alacantra keyboard backside, and wrote my name on the tape in pen. The pen marked past the tape and resulted in an inch long pen stain on the alacantra keyboard that I use on my surface pro 3. I successfully removed the blue ink line with the product link below. Just follow instructions. I highly recommend using the brush that is recommended under the "frequently bought together".
I will add that I used a high power stand fan to dry the alacantra area after I have finished cleaning it with the brush.

Hi,
Maybe try this one:

I don't tried it yet, but apparently it works well with surface covers.
Have you tried this stuff?

When I had my SL, I treated it monthly with this. I never let it get too dirty but any minor dirt/stains were resolved by using this.
I haven't tried it on mine, but I've read that an Alcantara cleaner like the below works well:

There's others, and if you read reviews you'll find people who've used it on their Alcantara Surfaces with success. The only reservation I would have is with later versions of Alcantara (ie. Surface Laptop) which supposedly have a different protective layer than the Alcantara Touch Cover, which I have.

This is what I use for the alcantara in my personal vehicle, works wonders!! https://www.amazon.com/Sonax-206141-Upholstery-Alcantara-Cleaner/dp/B00BBWJ16U/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1483915379&sr=8-1&keywords=alcantara+cleaner
Paper is a fabric too, why not compare it?
> good luck getting it fully out without damaging your device.
This is where you're wrong, an alcantara cleaner can easily clean stains/dirt (read the reviews, people even mention cleaning their SP4 alcantara keyboards effectively which isn't coated like the surface laptop).
