The dye in jeans is not ‘fast’, it leaches out into the leather due to heat from the body being transferred into the jeans. The dye sinks into the leather and is almost impossible to remove and is one of the biggest issues with light coloured automotive leathers. If you have a beautifully trimmed luxury car in light coloured leather, have enough respect for it not to let anyone ride in it with jeans. A luxury car had class, jeans, designer or otherwise, do not.

Not true, their leathers have lacquer to protect against abrasion, UV, heat and cold, various liquids that get onto them. The heavily printed/grained leathers seen on most cars are durable, but not so soft to the touch as they have a good amount of lacquer The Nappa non printed natural grained leathers have less lacquer so feel softer but still have enough to give good protection. Semi Anilies seen on the highest spec XJ/ Range Rover/Rolls/Bentley/Aston Martins have less lacquer still and a more softer natural feel but still credible protection Aston did a limited run of 100 vehicles some years ago with no lacquer or paint, just dyed through and therefore no protection. In spite of discussing the leather type and potential problems which each customer, they still get complaints. It is suicidal to put natural leather with no paint or lacquer in an automobile as it has no durability, and no protection against the sun or heat, or any stains or dirt that are bound to get onto the seats at any time. There is a lot of BS written about leather, and quite often the customers believe it.

I drove a Lincoln Town car as a Taxi and before every shift I wiped down all the surfaces in the car with non-alcohol baby wipes. Had many people tell me it damages the Leather. That car had nearly 2 million kilometres on it, probably half a million by me, and it had the nicest leather in the fleet. Always used a different wipe for the back of the seat than the bottom, changed the wipes often and never used the same wipe on different surfaces. My car was always spotless and fresh smelling. I kept such good care of it the owner of the company would always (frustratingly) take my car when he needed to borrow one of the cars. 1. Take the car to the car wash 2. Wash the entire exterior. 3. Dry the whole car 4. clean each door jamb and door completely including meeting surfaces, handles, door cards etc. 5. clean all seats and seat backs 6. Clean divider and cup holders 7. Vacuum and freshen the carpet 8. Wipe and clean all the pillars and any surface the customer may come in contact with. 9. Clean the wheel and door handle and contact surfaces. 10. Do the rest of the front at slow times when customer isn't in the car. The dispatchers said they got so many requests for me that they had to refuse requests because it would cause conflicts with the other drivers.

I have a weak left leg from a back injury and I lift my left leg up into place. Common sense tells you any repetitive contact with leather will wear it. Add in hard contact with purse, keys, gun holsters, etc will damage leather faster. I am not a fan of leather seats, but our last car has them and they are a PIA, and cold in the winter and hotter in the summer. We have heated seats, but not cooling seats. And many manus are charging a subscription to "perks" like "heated" steering wheels/seats now. ......The automobile industry is killing itself slowly with greed and stupidity.

The outside edge of the drivers seat is the very first thing I look at on any cars interior to judge wear and tear and to see if it's a grocery getter or freeway flyer. But no, it's not something I was told and I believe you're the first I've heard mention it. Thanks for spreading the word

I live in Japan, and was always amazed that I never saw any car with torn seats here. I then learned that to pass the bi-annual inspections in Japan, cars cannot have hole or tears in seats or carpets, nor can they have dents, and even the paint must be intact. This would have disqualified pretty much every car I ever owned before I was 30 years old. If you have a car with torn leather bolsters, there are Japanese detailers who can and will remove any scratches, tears, or holes, and they do an incredible job.

I understand and completely agree with how to get in and out of the car. However it's not always going to be that easy. I've just bought a very low mileage SLK and it has side bolster damaged seats 🤔🙄 but as the car is so low and the doors are so big you will have to be able to fully open the doors to be able to allow you to enter the exit the car as you have described and that's not always going to be possible especially if someone parks too close to you. My other sports car is a 1955 MGTF which has rear hinged doors so it encourages and promotes the entry/exit method you are showing us. Good video and interesting 👍 Kind regards Paul 🇬🇧

That’s why you clean the leather with balanced PH solution then apply moisturizer or conditioner… leather will shrink and crack over time without taking care of it. I’ve met master leather artists from Testoni Bologna and Stefano Bemer they all advised me to use good quality conditioners on leather,not too often…even a man told me to use extra virgin olive oil. So conditioning the dead skin material is very important just be careful not to use cheap products.

Thanks for a great video Darren. Due to spinal failure, I have been shown how to get in and out of a car to prevent further spinal damage, not to protect the seat coverings. On a similar note I believe Saab developed a swivel seat that meant you not only didn’t damage side bolsters, there was almost zero wear on the seat covering. Question: is there any point in putting CarPro ‘Leather’ on my new car’s seat to even help the coating already on the leather?

So, other than being careful getting in and out of the car, what is the best coating to use on the clean leather?
@Ojb_1959
@Ojb_1959 Жыл бұрын
So in reality your not cleaning or conditioning the actual leather. Your cleaning the sealed coating on it and I guess conditioning it as well. If you can’t condition the actual leather then it’s best to keep it out the heat and sunlight or it will break down quicker with age. I’m wondering if car seat covers are a good idea since there could be abrasion issues and compatibility issues between the two materials.

"Do not drag your ass on the side bolsters when you get in and out of your car!" Lol this is the realist advice ever. Also I used to clip my keys on my hip, but my ex asked me nicely to not have my keys there when I got in the car. I didnt even think of buttons or keys scratching but it makes total sense!

Great explanation video. I have a Laramie truck it's different to get out of truck. What products and brands do u to protect the leather from friction. I used conditioner by Jay lenos. But u said no. Lucky me used only once. Just bought truck couple weeks ago. I see there's been wear on the seat from previous owner

Nop... no one. But i have figured it out. Soooo more important to me was the part you talk about CLEANING the leather. When i went shopping i found all kinds of materials for leather but none for cleaning. And it seemed to me that i am skipping a pase. So. Can an APC be used for leather? Or it must be something special?

Or another realistic reason is car companies just give lousy cheap subpar leather. You shouldn't do gymnastics to get into a car. The car company for 70 grand should give higher quality material !
