Leather Problem Cause by cleaner

Hello...
I used Amorall leather care spray on my acura tl 1999 leather. I sprayed on some areas, and I noticed after it dried, it left like a spray mark (whiter than the leather color) on the leather...

I don't why it is doing this
Can someone give a some advices on how to get rid of the spray mark??


thanks

try using a soapy water solution and a rag to wipe the seats down. Then next time apply it to the rag and wipe on.

Get rid of the spray maybe. Some of the propellents in those spray cans could be harmful. Much like when you spray styrofoam with spraypaint up CLOSE, it melts. However if you spray it with the same spraypaint from further away, it dries fine without affecting the surface.

I use ArmorAll Leather Care (Large'ish brown bottle, sits upright on the cap) and I've never had any problems. I make sure I don't let any blotches dry under intense sunlight as that may case some magnification and burning.

Just spread evenly and quickly, try not to be in direct sunlight, and do not use it on an already sizzling hot dash.

Thats why i always apply it to the rag first, then to the dash. You also get better and more uniform coverage

I use Armorall also with great results. My seats are going on 10 yrs. old (manufacture date of Nov. 1998) and they looks great. So much so that people comment on how nice they are. I apply Armorall bout every5/6 months so that they dont' dry out and crack. The drivers side seat gets done more often.
