Which Leather Treatment?

ThePrisoner · Post by **ThePrisoner** » Fri May 04, 2007 9:04 pm

My drivers seat is starting to look a little worn and is showing signs of almost cracking. Now it hasn't started yet but before long it will do, and I want to treat it before it does.

Does anyone know what stuff I need to buy and how to treat my seats, want to try and keep the mine like the back ones. lol

Anyone treated their leather interior with anything?

Oh forgot to add, there is a slight scuff mark, leather cream / cleaner wont solve that but what can I use to remove it or restore the scuff back to how it should be?

is it black leather? if so try shoe polish, just make sure to rub it all off afterwards

I find the huggies wipes work better than the johnsons ones for cleaning, there's a bit more texture to them so you can scrub a bit, but then again I've got a light colour interior.

Once it's nice and clean I've got to agree that the Autoglym Leather Care Cream is brilliant stuff. I also bought the Autolym Leather Cleaner when I first got the car but that's not so good, baby wipes are better.

Yeah it is, so I just rub shoe polish over the scuff so it blends back in with the leather, then rub it all all of afterwards, and then treat the whole seat with autoglym leather cream/cleaner.

Sounds like a plan for tomorrow when I get bored.

yep thats it, you just really do have to get rid of all the shoe polish otherwise your clothes may change colour

get some hide food from a saddler,and rub that in until the leather stops soaking it in,then wipe off the excess,it does make a difference,i used it on an old PB CRESTA i had.
