I used to hand wash mine in the bathtub with detergent after removing the foam inserts. Not sure if mine were manufactured the same as yours though.

The seat cushions that came with the kit when I acquired it were used and had a coke soaked in one of the seat bottoms . I cut the cushion open at the aft end and removed the foam . I was able to get the coke out of the foam with soap and water . The cover washed in the machine , turned out pretty good

Fox1 - Keep in touch. I'd love to hear more about your KFL engine when you get it up and running. They are very rare and we never hear anything about them.
