how do i get mechanic greese off white leather seats and door panels?

Question

for my leather seats in my corvette

Answer 1

use waterless hand cleaner its the same thing that mechanics use and it is good for your hands

Answer 2

I would try a small section at a time 1st, but maybe the hand cleaner that mechanics use called goop. Use a small amount on a clean rag and scrub the affected area, wipe with a clean rag and follow up with a leather saddle soap type cleaner. Start with an area that you wont see easily first, if it doesnt discolor that area than you are good to go from there.

Answer 3

I don't know if this is something that you will work on leather but something similar happened to us. We had a sheep skin that got badly stained with grease from the closet door. I sent it to the dry cleaners and it came back better than new. I asked the dry cleaner what he used and he told me that white gasoline. Ask a dry cleaner where you live what they use for those types of stains and maybe they can help you out.

Answer 4

Miraclean 500, spray it on and use a soft brush, then wipe it off. Castrol Superclean and Whitmore Safety Solvent would also work. I would use the Superclean as a last choice, however it would probably be the easiest to find.

Answer 5

This will sound weird but it does work...really. Go buy you some aerosol BRAKE CLEANER. Spray it on the grease...and wipe it off...may take a couple of tries but it will take the grease away. There will be a residual odor left from the brake cleaner but it will go away after a few days.

Answer 6

first make sure it,s real leather, if it is get a bottle of a product called goof-off it will remove anything , but is it is plastic it will melt it if you leave it on to long. I buy it at Lowes or Manards.

Answer 7

Go complain to the mechanic who put them there.

Answer 8

Answer 9
