scoobywho Posted September 9, 2013 Posted September 9, 2013 Anyone got any tricks for leather cleaning and revitalisation , my seats in my hawk have "dry" patches where the kids seats are and I would like to get it all looking perfect
DR Motosport Posted September 9, 2013 Posted September 9, 2013 I use meguiars leather conditioner every so ofter on the Mercedes, and also use their wipes for quick wipe overs.
davey l wrx Posted September 9, 2013 Posted September 9, 2013 Auto-Glym Leather Care is good stuff as well. I always used to put something under the kids seats to protect the car seats nothing worse than some quavers or wotsit's being ground into the upholstery by a kids seat!
scoobywho Posted September 9, 2013 Author Posted September 9, 2013 Thats the plan after I get the shape back in the seats davey, found all sorts of weird foods under them lol
mugs Posted September 9, 2013 Posted September 9, 2013 I use Autoglym leather cleaner and a soft nail brush to clean then Autoglym conditioner applied in a heavy coat, leave overnight then buff off the next day. I have used this stuff on my wife's old Mercedes, her current coupe and our BMW Z3, all with good results.

scoobywho Posted September 9, 2013 Author Posted September 9, 2013 I have some good stuff, let me look it out. Tomorrow is tribute day maybe its clay barred and washed so fsr
Bryan d Posted September 15, 2013 Posted September 15, 2013 I use baby wipes on the lether seats in the house word better than the lether wipes in our cleaning pack lol we 3 kids we have plenty lol
scoobywho Posted September 15, 2013 Author Posted September 15, 2013 Ive been using them on it lol seems to ha e sprung back lightly but need to get some sort of care cream onto it, planning on keeping my hawk for the foreseeable future, (so I can sneakily buy another classic)
corsa Posted September 16, 2013 Posted September 16, 2013 After yesterdays detailing day DO NOT use baby wipes as they clog up the pores in the leather, hoover,clean with a detail spray then apply a butter creme,results are unbelievable and also cares and protects your leather. If in doubt drop the chemical guys in Cambuslang an email or go visit them. D

mugs Posted September 16, 2013 Posted September 16, 2013 also, if you have sagging you can heat the leather with a hairdryer and it will shrink back to original. there are lots of videos on YouTube showing how to do it properly.
scoobywho Posted September 16, 2013 Author Posted September 16, 2013 Ive used supaguard care cream on it today and it seems to have resprung, im going to go to chemical guys and get theur stuff and do the lot
