Title: leather cleaner
Post by: pauls on 27 April 2016, 12:57:48

Anybody got any tips to clean the cream/grey leathers seats. tried all the usual stuff thats been on here before but nothing is cleaning the ground in dirt. I was thinking of either trying to dye them black or put up a wanted add.

Auto-glym do a very good cleaner, and food for leather, also baby wipes work well  :y
Also try Wilco for leather sofa cleaner.

Whatever you try always do a small test first, car leather and sofa leather are not the same nor are the way they are treated.  What's good for one is not necessarily good for the other.  Neutral baby wipes are quite good as biggriffin mentions.

I used Simoniz leather wipes with added carnauba wax in the v70. Makes the leather smell nice just don't go for a spirited drive after treatment lol you'll end up in the passenger seat

I use autobrite leather cleanse with a small nail brush.  Generally a cloth isn't good enough. I then use their cream to put the oils back in to the surface of the leather.

I know this sounds awful but when i had an Audi A6 2.8 Quattro back in the day, the cream leather seats were very heavily ingrained with dirt, none of the gentle cleaners would do it....so....i used a wet cloth with Jif :(......it worked a treat, and quickly, i then added a leather nourisher straight after, they were just fine and i had the car for years.
