    Ok may have had a doll in the back of the car at the donegal international weekend and she got glitter all over the leather, suede and plastics and even the roof lining!.. I've tried auto glym leather cleaner but hasn't really helped...
    Any other suggestions on removal?!

    Assuming the dolls name is Glitter, just deflate her :-)

    Just keeping your post active hopefully someone with an idea is along soon.!

    Maybe one of those brushes that removes dog hair or a tape that doesn't leave residue?

    Thinly veiled "i got some at the weekend" thread? :D

    Have you tried a hoover and upholstery brush?

    Haven't tried using a brush cause don't want to damage the leather, have only used damp cloth and leather cleaner.. Also have auto glym leather balm but think it's more of a protector/replenisher rather than a cleaner...

    I'd say a brush with softish bristles would be fine. AG's Leather Balm will do nothing except nourish the leather

    As said, as soft bristle brush to help lift the glitter, and perhaps with the aid of a vacuum to get rid of it once you manage to stir it. The worst about glitter is you might stir it, but it will just shift and stick somewhere else!

    Did it wash off OK?? :P

    OP, why don't you just phone the Escort Agency where you got her and ask them how they remove glitter?

    You've been looking for advice from the wrong professionals...........

    Feel your pain glitter is a scourge gets everywhere and when you think its all gone you spot some more.

    What about something like a lint remover http://www.ebay.ie/itm/3M-Scotch-Brite-Lint-Roller-Lint-Pet-Hair-Remover-Clothes-Fluff-Remover-x-4-/271426429352?pt=UK_Home_Garden_Kitchen_Steamers_Cookers_PP&hash=item3f3246a1a8 just try it somewhere not too obvious first
