Cleaning and Protection of Light Leather

The new RCZ has light leather.

What products are out there to help clean and then protect the seats from the transfer of jean dye?

I've hear of "Dr Leather" wipes?

Don't wear jeans :)

I wouldn't suggest Dr Leather wipes. I bought a big tub of them. Used once and never again. Left white residue all over my seats.

Furniture Clinic kit is great. Been using on our cars for 4 years and it keeps the leather looking like new. Also helps stop dye transfer too.

Clean regularly with the cleaner and protect every 3 months. Makes stain removal a breeze.

I would love to see your garage Kerry I bet it's an aladdins cave of lotions potions and cloths and machines :)

Can't comment specifically on jean dye removal properties, but I have used Gliptone Leather Cleaner/Protector for over 5 years on my ivory XKR leather, which has kept it looking clean, young and un-marked despite the car being nearly 14 years old! - it's wonderful stuff, removes stains and general grime (and smells great too!):

Gliptone Liquid Leather cleaner

I gently agitate it using a soft leather cleaning brush and then wipe clean with a damp soft cloth

Following that, to protect and feed the leather it's Gliptone Liquid Leather Conditioner

It's an aladdins cave alright but I really need to sort out all my products. It's a job I have planned for the next week or two.

I got the furniture clinic kit on RCZ1's recommendation as I have light mistral grey leather. I can testify it gets jean dye out and my seats still look like new nearly a year down the line!

For years now on all motors I have had, I clean and protect the leather upholstery

with udder cream that is used on dairy cows. It keeps the leather supple and does

not dry out with undue colouring.
