Leather Seats

Recommended Posts

Can anyone recommended something to put on leather seats to keep it in good condition and give it a bit of a clean up? There are so many 'leather treatments' on the market I don't know where to start :blink:

 

Cheers :)

Autoglym do a cleaning spray and some cream that you rub in to keep the leather supple.

 

The cleaner does the job but tbh isn't anything special. When it runs out I'll get some of the stuff people use on leather sofas as it's cheaper. The cream is great though. You have to give it a few goes before you notice any difference, but then you only need to do it every 6-9 months and the leather stays soft.

my mum (the almighty fountain of endless knowledge) gave me some saddle soap and cream that she uses on her sadles for the horses which made the leather like brand new and smells like there brand new aswell

ill find out the propper name of it on monday but its the best ive used and was £9 each tube and it will last for a long time! you can buy it from most saddlerys or farm shops.

In the summer I'm always applying the Autoglym cream to the leather, especially the areas that seem to dry out from the sun.

I thought you had cloth seats Kris?

 

Cheers for the replies. Pony, there are a couple of farm shops near me so if you can get hold of the name of the saddle stuff that would be good :)

Nope I have leathers. Maybe you were thinking of Paul, he had the velours in his now sadly deceased phase 2.

Looks like it probably is.

Is it really ok to use it on leather car interiors though?

Once you've got he seats all tasty and clean, treat them to a weekly wipe down with baby wipes - honest! Cleans, conditions, and a fraction of the price of specialist wipes.

Any good tips for giving the alcantara a bit of clean? Scared to ruin it.
