Just wanted to find out what is the best cleaner out there for the leather. I have the parchment interior on my 05 WDP and my blue jeans are staining the seats. Thanks.

 

There are a number of products available. I use Megs Gold Class. Try this one to get you started. You might wanna check the Wash & Wax forum or you can use the search feature.

 

i've used Lexol product for many years:

Lexol Leather Cleaner (orange bottle)
Lexol Leather Conditioner (brownish bottle)
Lexol Vinylex (funky green bottle)

 

Thanks allot both of you. I appreciate the info.

 

I use Lexol as well. You may want to check the Wash & Wax forums for more info.

 

I use Lexol, seems to work great!

 

lexol..

then zaino leather conditioner...check my thread, i got lots of info about this stuff

 

Great stuff.

 

Cleaning- use a soft horse hair brush (Groit's Leather & Interior Brush) and/or a vacuum to remove any dust, apply a cleaning solution (Water /Woolite® or Dreft® 6:1 ratio or stronger) on to an applicator pad and apply to one area at a time (i.e. a seat back). To remove stubborn dirt or grime gently agitate the surface with a boar's hair cleaning brush (this will not harm the leather) then use a clean, damp Microfiber towel to rinse.

Maintenance cleaning- use a cleaning solution (Water /Woolite® or Dreft® 10:1 ratio) on to an applicator pad and apply to one area at a time

Stubborn stains- dependent upon the leathers condition or how dirty it is consider using a leather-cleaning product. (Leatherique's Prestine Clean, Groit's Leather Cleaner or Autoglym Leather Cleaner)

Couldn't have said it better myself.... except the colour (color). Vinalex isn't green in the US is it?

Oh.. and the Lexol "cleaner" is like soap.... you'll need water to make the seats clean. I've used Lexol Cleaner on my buddy's dad's Accord's leather seats.. the back seat was "owned" by a doberman, so the seats were scratched and the colour of the grey (gray) seats was slightly tinted brown. After applying the cleaner (soap) from my spray bottle (I have my personal 500ml jug, the direction were on the jug, not my re-fillable spray bottle) I noticed that I was just moving around the dirt and nothing was coming clean, so I added a little more Lexol cleaner, still moving around the dirt without picking it up. I thought to myself "is this really the best leather stuff out there?, it isn't working". So I did what every man is reluctant to do... I read the directions off the jug "after applying the soap, wipe away with a clean damp cloth". I felt like an idiot, so (I'm thinking) JUST LIKE SOAP WHEN YOU WASH YOUR HANDS The dirt doesn't go away until you run your hands under water.. So I grab a wet terry cloth towel and with one swipe across the seat it was perfectly clean, left a bright grey strip down the center of the brownish seats.... I figured it out.. The seats came perfectly clean after a couple wipes from the terry cloth.... now I know why they use Lexol on horse saddles, "it gets all the sh#t out"

 

Where can I purchase these Lexol products??? Thanks.

to clean the leather a sightly damped cloth would do it

but conditioner you need a gd one

 

I use Lexol on the leather and the Einszett 1Z line on the rest of the interior detail.
