Leather seats

[CorradoT5]

Hi guys, i've been using the meguiar's cleaner and also the conditioner on my 1991 corrado leather interior. what I saw on the bright towel is that it was getting dark from something. seats weren't that dirty, car is barely in use and it is always clean inside. what I think is that it was clor from the leather (black leather).
what do you think? is it possible? those are old seats yeah, but those products are ph balanced aren't they?

Re: Leather seats

These products are super safe and I have never had problems with them. I have also heard from a few others that they perform excellent on uncoated and coated leather. My thought would be that it is just grime hidden by the black seat. I don't think you would be getting color transfer unless you are scrubbing really aggressively.
I always try to keep my seats clean, but leather always seems to pick up lots of grime even when I'm careful about it.

If you have pictures of what it looks like they might be helpful in identifying the cause.

Very cool to have someone on the forum from Israel!

Re: Leather seats

From experience the Meguiar's leather cleaner and conditioner works great. I can scrub my leather seat with APC+ until the towel looks clean and then I will use the leather cleaner and pick up more dirt/grime onto the towel. I just think the leather cleaner will clean what you can't see with the naked eye. That's what it's specifically made for is to clean leather.

Re: Leather seats

Most leathers are coated with a protective film and considering the age of the car, my guess is that possibly the coating has failed to some degree and there are some dye transfer from the leather.
