Answer 2

Leather upholstery has always been synonymous with luxury. Do-it-yourselvers have two options for attacking stains on leather upholstery: using household products or a commercial cleaner formulated especially for the job. Either way, the sooner the stain is addressed, the better—the less the stain soaks in, the easier it is to remove.

First you will need to do is a test.
To do the test spray the cleaner, using the back edge of the cushion on the leather part. Spray a spot about the size of a quarter and wipe it with a white towel and let it dry on it’s own.
If you get colour transfer onto the towel it is not safe to clean.
If there is no change in colour and no watermark then it is safe to clean or spot clean.
If there is a watermark but no colour change it is safe to clean only thing is you will need to clean the whole thing. (to stop watermarks) you can not spot clean.


If you want to try household cleaners, begin with a solution of water and "neutral" soap (one with a pH factor of 7). Dawn dishwashing liquid (4 or 5 drops into one cup of water) works good.
Regardless of products used, begin by blotting liquid spots with paper towels. Massage the solution onto the spot with a soft, terrycloth towel, turning the towel often. Wipe the area dry immediately; use a hairdryer held away from the seat if necessary to avoid getting a ring where the soap and water were applied.Be cautious about attacking stains all at once to preserve the upholstery's protective layer.

Remember to always due a pre test with all products that you try.

remove the milk ether wet or by rubbing it off then get some saddel soap and go over it . after that see how much the color bleeds and if you can get away with it go over all of your leather with the saddel soap to keep it moist and then you might want to put some leather cream on it and your seats will out last the car.
( ask your dealer for directions and products safe for cars)

Answer 4

i warm towel in hot water and then go over the seat after the first wipe down with leather cleaner and your seat will will be fine.. I'd think you should worry more about your kid instead of a materialistic vehicle that could be totaled tomorrow or repossessed

Answer 5

Murphy's oil soap. It will help the leather maintain it's natural oils and won't harm it as other soaps would and just using water won't get the smell out. Good Luck

Answer 6

haha, nice, fried chicken. Yeah, take a cotton towel, and damp it with warm water and a little soap for the smell and like scrub it a million times and it should go. I puked in my dad's new car. he freaked out...

Answer 7
