How To Protect Tesla White Leather Seats | Keep Your Interior Looking New For Longer

[@xzibit8614]

If you don’t absolutely need the miles during the week, charge to 80%. Then leave work Fridays with 90% for the weekend. It’s a tiny bit less harder on the battery and will make it last longer. I have a 2013 Model S performance. I only charge to 70% at work. 80% when I leave work on a Friday for weekend miles (my commute is only 11 miles). I’ll go to 100 for the half dozen trips a year. But make sure I time it so I leave as soon as it hits 100%. You don’t want it to “stay” at a high rate of charge. That accelerates degradation. 8 years later, my battery still has 95.2% capacity. On an 8 year old battery.

Jason u never made the vid for the paint correction and ceramic coating of the Tesla after the tunnel wash. 😔 loved the bloopers

[@MyGuyKirby]

All good products to help keep it protected, hope Jason is enjoying his new ride.

[@Mogsy28uk]

still prefer the Gyeon leather range, works better on my Subaru. entertaining and informative video though.

“Massage into the seats like your lotioning your hands” very curious what CAP after hours is gonna be like. Haha

Thanks Jason, very informative. I actually bought Gyeon Leather Cleaner and leather coat as well. Funny thing is: I also have white interior Tesla model 3 performance, just collected few days ago 😂. I was wondering if there is any carpet protector. Now I know, thanks!

[@ChicagoAutoPros]

Thanks for watching!

[@Mogsy28uk]

agreed, i like the Gyeon products for my Subaru, works well with the Ivory interior.

[@Vanifest24]

Same!

[@yankeesfan2726]

just curious how the interior seat protection has held up, would you still recommend this product? Taking delivery of a Model Y soon with white interior. Thanks!

[@JC-os6zi]

[@scott_cp5902]

I went to buy the product, but colorlock came back to me and said i should be using the cleaner for faux leather. Do you agree with them or should i still be using the leather cleaner instead?

[@galesal1109]

Isn’t the steering wheel made of the vegan leather ? Why are you using the plastic protection on that and not the seats?

[@abor3edcod5]

Great Video! As always much love. Great presentation very professional and clear! A great idea/video is what to do when you first buy a car like the ultimate clean protection for exotic vehicle then high-end vehicle then medium-end etc.. ❤️👍🏼🙌

Thanks!

[@dystopianpresent1544]

[@themachine8009]

I wonder if that colourlock leather kit is better than a coating for leather?

[@Hattonbank]

Seat leather is always coated by the tannery unless it is a full aniline leather

[@christeaaa]

do you recommend that leather car kit on darker interiors too?

[@eshepley]

Factory mats? Ugh! So many better choices.

[@hadihedayati4229]

I’m going to pick up my Lexus LC500 with white leather interior seats, what are you recommending to protect that?

[@galoalvez27]

Does Dr. Beasley’s make the steering wheel feel slippery at all?

[@bml33]

Does that leather protector make the seats feel slick when you get in and out of the car?

Great video! Need a feedback on the mother’s VLR product, what do you think? I use that one on my Tesla seats.

[@raysun9188]

does it make a difference to make multiple layer of the leather shield?

[@nevillejames2200]

Great video. Do you recommend using the colourlock cleaning brush?

[@slinkywinky9]

The colourlock left streaks in my black seats. Do you guys know how to get the streaks out? Is the colourlock only for the white seats?? 😬😭

[@r.k862]

Can you explain what you did? What happened?

[@1stfrompuertorico568]

Got to try that product from Dr. BEASLEY

[@ChicagoAutoPros]

It works great!

[@sanchez911]

what about sand from kids? does it damage the leather?

[@theDougAngle]

Would you suggest any type of protectant for floor mats you installed at the very end of the video?

[@pravinchelliah2850]

is Byron leather shield also good? would you recommend it or no ?

[@ZekeMagnum]

I read that you are supposed to treat Tesla's seats as plastic/vinyl since it is vegan leather? You should use vinyl conditioner rather than leather conditioner since the vegan leather won't let conditioner products penetrate it?

[@tomfrenza8049]

Doesn’t Tesla put UV protection in it’s roof glass?

[@ZekeMagnum]

yes

[@crypto_radio9653]

How frequently do you recommend doing this?

[@walterstokes3770]

When you go over the sets with the microfiber cloth should it be wet or dry

[@hegdelabs]

Can i apply leather cleaner and conditioners on ceramic coated leather seats? Is it recommended

[@scottmattern482]

Does anyone have a rough estimate to re-upholster a car seat in vinyl? I wonder if all the time and specialty products used to clean and protect a seat is worth it over the life of that seat, or what type of value do you get for putting the time in and product on regularly? I would think that getting leather with contrast stitching to match oem would be difficult and pricey, but dyed vinyl seems like it might be relatively cheap to replace.

[@Hattonbank]

PVC is about 25% of the price of basic embossed seat leather, but the work in cutting the panels and sewing all of them together is largely the same. All you save is the difference in the higher cost of the leather vs the PVC.

[@Bosshog4541]

Does this work on any white or dark leather as well or just for Tesla

[@ChicagoAutoPros]

Yes it will work.

[@ColeSpolaric]

It puts the lotion in the basket....

[@U2SuzyQ731]

What did you use to protect the exterior?

[@shakelife5054]

Why don't you use Vegan Leather or Artificial Leather protection?

[@joenguyenle7018]

what do you use to clean and dust repellant for the screen?

[@chichyiphone4]

What’s better color lock or cquarts ceramic from car pro?

[@jbmcdoogle]

Is the seat coating a ceramic coating? I was told that protecting the sticking in very important as that will wear fairly quickly

[@rook3364]

Use the wipes it work fine it won’t hurt your leather if u use the ceramic it will make your leather weak overtime

[@tomsekerchak2176]

Does Gretchnic product leave the seats slick? From your description sounds like it would.

[@tomsekerchak2176]

Oops meant colorloc

[@mattheviewer]

Just curious - does the leather protection process shown here prove best for ScotchGuard protected seats? Or is there a better way to clean/treat those ?

[@scottmattern482]

My understanding is that scotchgaurd will be stripped by normal cleaning with carpet/upholstery cleaner. Or at least that is what the carpet cleaner told me when he was trying to sell their protectant application after my home's carpets were cleaned.

[@Mogsy28uk]

Gyeon do a good Fabric Coat product for carpets and fabric seats, or Leather Coat for all leather/vinyl surfaces. I have also used Rain-X's Repel Guard on older cars, it works too, but needs re-done every few months.

[@lostinrandomforest5886]

Do we use the same solution as the seats for White 'leather' on side panels and in the front?

[@bridge1872]

Was wondering the same thing

Hi jasonnn

[@ChicagoAutoPros]

Hello!

[@lannyluckyj3227]

What kind of interior clean is best for a smokers vichile, and I used a apc on the steering wheel and it felt sticky. Is that normal?

[@ImDembe]

You need to clean everything, probably even the roof so i would go for a professional for the best result if you can't take the seats out and clean everything.

[@Mogsy28uk]

best with full strength APC or interior detailer, lots MF cloths and a steam cleaner. plus fabric/leather strong cleaners. once done you need to then use the same protectants for all the surfaces

[@badgambit7332]

waste of money, just use hot/warm water with microfiber towel, just try it and see

[@ranchoelbamboo4068]

You dont need any of this. Meguiars apc and a good leather conditioner. Scotch fabric guard for "protection" is all you need.

[@ranchoelbamboo4068]

@@jamesgillespie9000 not all cars have full leather. The industry wants people to buy too many products.
