Faux suede is easily cleaned with HWE, excellent results are possible. One thing to be careful of is using any solutions with too high a solvent content as this can cause delamination.

Faux Suede is a Flock fabric....the pile (usually Polyester) is glued onto a backing fabric.... You should never use solvents....glue and solvents do not mix

I agree with DB and try not to soak it or it can wrinkle
