Classic seats!

Does anyone have any tips for cleaninmg up leather seats, somewhere along the line a previous pwner has loved his cigars etc, the seats are in good nick except for the build up of cig smoke. I have trried the off the shelf stuuf but not much happens?


cheers J

One of the best things I have found is the auto gimp, leather cleaner. put it on, brush it round and then wipe off.
Or the way I do it. Put loads on with a softish brush. Ajitate it a lot then wipe off. Buff afterwards with a clean, dry lint free cloth.

Or you could try using baby wipes. Just make sure they are the ones that have lanalin.

When you have cleaned them make sure you use a good quality leather feed/care cream. Otherwise they dry out and crack.

you could try saddle soap wipes/ cleaner, although they will leave a dull finish and slightly darken the leather but will keep it soft and supple.. have a look in any tack shops etc. Dont use the stuff you get in a bar form as its a long winded job & can be sticky!, the spray bottle or ready to use wipes are better.
