If you have invested in leather car seats you will know that they add to the luxurious look and feel of a car. Leather seats are also long-lasting and can handle a lot of wear and tear if looked after properly.<\/p>\n
There are many ways in which you can clean your leather car seats and there is a wide range of leather car seat cleaners available on the market. Some cleaners are very effective others are frankly a waste of money.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Leather, like most other materials, can get dirty or damaged from normal use, wear and tear. Dirt, grime, grease, as well as body sweat and oil, can get into the pores of the leather and require cleaning. Cleaning car leather seats can very time\/labor intensive and in most of the cases require a certain extent of finesse. However, it is possible to do a great job yourself at home.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n With the right leather cleaners, you will be able to bring the leather back to life with a less effort. Once you have done that, you should keep it protected and soft. This is where a good quality leather conditioner comes in handy.<\/span><\/p>\n The <\/span>Chamberlain\u2019s Leather Milk Conditioner and Cleaner<\/a> is my choice for the best car cleaner and conditioner for leather seats. That is primarily because of its impressive cleaning results against the dirt and grime and all natural ingredients.<\/span><\/p>\n Leather Honey Leather Cleaner<\/a> is my pick for the best car cleaner and conditioner for leather seats for the money. The product is 100% non-toxic one and can be used very long time because of its strong formula (it needs to be diluted before use).<\/span><\/p>\n Chemical Guys Leather Conditioner and Cleaner<\/a> is really a quality product with which you can achieve impressive results. It is universal because it is suited for all types of leather (both cheap and fine leather). This product is very popular.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Before beginning the real cleaning process you should consider vacuuming the leather seats removing the dirt and debris from the crevices. Then use the following DIY recipe to prepare a cleaning solution: Prepare a mixture of warm water and Castile soap<\/a>. For the solution use the following ratio-5 parts water to 1 part soap. Using a dampened cloth with this solution, wipe dry the seat surfaces. Then with the aid of a second damp cloth wipe clean the surface of the leather.<\/span><\/p>\n It is well-known that white vinegar<\/a> works very well on leather. Olive oil<\/a>, on the other hand, can be used for polishing the leather and dissolving the old oily stains. As soon as these stains are dissolved they can be cleaned afterward with the help of vinegar. As a final ingredient, you should consider adding an essential lemon oil<\/a> to the mixture. Because of the fact that leather is in its essence a processed animal hide, this oil will moisturize it and give it the all needed perk.<\/span><\/p>\n Below I am giving you the necessary products for preparing this cleaning agent:<\/span><\/p>\n Steps through which the cleaning process passes:<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n Vinegar is probably the best DIY leather cleaner, because of the fact that it does not damage the surface of the leather. The Ph of the leather is slightly acidic and varies between 4.5 and 5.0. Other traditional household leather cleaners usually have a more alkaline ph and that is why they are unsuitable for leather cleaning.<\/span><\/p>\n Necessary products you will need for the cleaning process:<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n Steps in the cleaning process<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n Using liquid dish soap is another way of cleaning your car seats. A solution of dish soap and water is known to be very effective against a variety of old and obstinate stains. For further assistance in the cleaning process, you can use a microfiber glove. However, the major concern is leaving behind detergent residue.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Necessary things needed for cleaning:<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n Steps for the cleaning process<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n Toothpaste is another common DIY cleaner. However, cleaning of your car seats with toothpaste can be very messy. The cleaning process is not complicated but also not very effective. <\/span><\/p>\n You should just put a small quantity of toothpaste on your old toothbrush and brush the leather. Generic toothpaste can be used for cleaning stains on the surface of the leather.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n One of the main ingredients of the white toothpaste is abrasives. These abrasives are specially designed to wipe off the plaque from the teeth. That is why they can are used for cleaning leather surfaces also.<\/span><\/p>\n Toothpaste can also work as a deodorizer and can deal with that old smells which have seeped through the leather of the seats.<\/span><\/p>\n Necessary things needed for the cleaning process <\/b><\/span><\/p>\n Steps in the cleaning process:<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n Nail polish remover is especially effective in cleaning stains from spilled food or beverage. Acetone based cleaning is only required for very dirty leather such as stains. You should try cleaning with ‘softer’ chemicals before you try this.<\/span><\/p>\n The important thing when using this method is to make sure that it is an acetone based polish remover. If that is not the case the cleaner simply won\u2019t work.<\/span><\/p>\n You should have in mind that pure acetone can shrivel your skin and be hazardous to breathe so be sure to wear gloves and ventilate the area if using it. This is why using pure acetone is not advised.<\/span><\/p>\nBest car cleaner and conditioner for leather seats overall<\/span><\/h2>\n
