Protecting Vinyl Cushion Covers

I received 2022 Tab 400 recently and was delighted the cushions exteriors are made of a vinyl material. The bottoms are fabric so they can breath I guess. So after eating at the dinette we discovered smudges. Innocent enough with fingers and palms that hadn’t been washed. So I decided to use a 3M product I had used on my boat and old truck vinyl seats. It gave my grey vinyl a darker luster and sheen. Before they were dry and a bit of a lighter grey. Any other products or techniques in cleaning, conditioning and protecting your cushions? I also lay a blanket on the cushions when it’s in lounge mode. Oh and I used carpet matting to prevent the outer bottom cushions from slipping loose. And put old towels behind the backs of the side cushions to give a bit of a recline.

    Before pic: shows vinyl was a lighter shade and also shows underside fabric.
