So, I finally hopped on the internet and saw this thread about using Woolite and water. I did a little more research on the internet and it sounded like many people had good results with it.

I'm here to say that Woolite and water (5:1 ratio) worked excellent on the stains that were on my seats. I did use a small brush (nail polishing brush) that was recommended on AutoGeek's website as well. I think the brush helped out a lot. I used a very slight pressure on the brush as not to damage the leather.

All in all, it turned out great. So now all I have to do is condition the seats to hopefully prevent this from happening again!

Thanks for the tips Aziners!!
Do you have a pic or link to the brush you used?

Yeah, here it is. I picked it up from Wal-Mart. It's a simple nail brush that worked wonders!

Go to the laundry aisle and ask an associate for the Woolite. It was there. Sometimes it's next to the stain removers, sometimes near the bleach.

I am not sure that is the best way to clean a camel.

Maybe just a hose? I would confirm that the camel is tied up before applying any cleaners to it, though. Otherwise, you may lose your camel.

Same goes for applying any waxes or sealants to your camel, and DEFINITELY before machine polishing your camel.

My jeans can leave a bluish hue on my parchment seat.

I use an unscented baby wipe to remove the bluish hue followed up by an application of good leather balm. Works fine.
