Leather seat restoration/deep clean

marcos_94

Hi All,

Have noticed that the jade grey front leather seats in my BMW are starting to look quite dirty and a bit worn. Wanted to know if anyone can recommend somewhere who can give the seats a good clean and if needed touch up the side bolsters?

Thanks

You could give it a go yourself by cleaning them and see how they come up before paying someone to do it.

I use Gliptone Liquid Leather and a leather cleaning brush. My car seats were fairly clean so I didn't notice much difference but I used this on my leather couch and it was night and day.

Thanks for the links, will check it out. I had previously tried using Autogylms leather cleaner but didnt really notice a difference. I was using a cloth instead of brush so maybe thats why it wasnt a good clean.

With the Gliptone, you spray it on, wait about 20 seconds then start gently scrubbing. Then wipe with a damp cloth (make sure to remove as much product as you can otherwise it can leave the leather sticky) and dry with another cloth.

Great thanks for the advice and steps. Have ordered the Gliptone cleaner and brush

The brush bristles are sturdy so you don't need to apply much pressure. Just move it around and let the bristles do the work.
