I just bought a 2011 Genesis Sedan. The leather is in good shape but the previous owner definitely only ever cleaned and maintained the Driver seat while the other seats were left un used. This little kit made all the seats feel like brand new again. Absolutely worth it!

[@ChemicalGuys]

Enjoy your detailing products!!

[@meganbaker3598]

Super impressed with this stuff!!! I bought the cleaner & conditioner, as well as the horse hair brush and microfiber pads. My leather sectional had mildew on it from being in storage - thanks to this product it now looks brand new!!!!! Amazing

[@ChemicalGuys]

Thanks for sharing!!

[@jonm.678]

Just tried this kit on my seats and it's AWESOME. My seats have never been cleaner and they smell great!

[@ChemicalGuys]

Hey Jon! We're so glad you're enjoying your detailing products!! - CG Nick

[@pullingthestrings5233]

why would you even smell your seat 🤢

[@jonm.678]

@@pullingthestrings5233 because I cleaned it with the kit haha. Once you really scrub off all the crap and condition it- it’s truly clean. And yes, it does smell good! But I’m not like putting my nose up to the seat, my guy lol. The car interior in general will smell nice from the leather conditioner.

[@bigrod997]

Was looking for a product to clean my perforated leather seats. I just found it. I really appreciate the tutorial. The suggested frequency to clean my the seats was another bonus. Great video. Definitely going to purchase this kit.

Just got the pilot trailsport. My first time having leather seats. Pretty noob on how im gonna clean the interior

[@maguilar51]

I use these products on my 2016 f150 king ranch. I also hit the carpet areas with the leather scent spray. Every time someone gets in my truck they comment on how great the leather smells. Also sometimes get asked how I make the truck smell so good on the inside. My leather seats look great. Especially knowing it now has 90k miles

I purchased the leather care kit. While the solutions are OK, the bristles on the brush for cleaning started falling out and shedding all over the interior after use on only 3 seats. I brought this to Chemical Guys attention and their response was "thank you for your feedback" and "welcome to the Chemical Guys family". No apology or offer to replace the poor-quality brush. I won't be a repeat customer.

[@HieuNguyen-uu5yi]

Can I use a microfiber cloth when I use the leather cleaner? Or do I have to invest in a soft brush?

[@jtrigoura1]

Personally, I feel like the brush lifts off the most dirt

[@rogl9294]

The brush works really good

[@sammyjimenez4438]

The brush goes crazy!!! Doesn't leave any damage because of the horse hair, and lifts all the dirt from the seats.

Can you use the leather cleaner, conditioner, and the serum on softex (synthetic) leather?

[@ChemicalGuys]

Hi Thomas! Use Leather Cleaner and Leather Conditioner to remove grime and add protection then use InnerClean to maintain a clean finish.

[@skyvwest]

Can you use the leather quick detailer in lieu of the cleaner?

[@ChemicalGuys]

Hey Sky! Leather Quick Detailer can be used when the surface isn't very dirty or stained rather than using Leather Cleaner. - CG Nick

What do you recommend for cleaning my Tesla's synthetic leather seats? Will normal leather cleaner work or should I use something else?

[@kikcodog]

Nick, After cleaning, what should we do first, leather Serum or leather conditioner? After you've sealed the seats with Leather Serum how should we care for the seats? If we have to use leather cleaner a month or 2 down the road, after Serum do we have to reapply it? As you can tell, I am a little confused about the order and how resistant Serum is to being removed by Leather cleaner.

[@ChemicalGuys]

Hey BigOldDog! After thoroughly cleaning and drying the leather, apply Leather Conditioner and then Leather Serum. If Leather Cleaner is used again down the road it will remove or degrade the protectants and it should be reapplied in the same order as before. - CG Nick

Hey Ben! Yes, it is perfectly fine to use Leather Cleaner and Leather Conditioner for perforated, heated/cooled seats. - CG Nick

[@EnricOon]

How does your Cleaner and Conditioner 2-in-1 product compare to using two separate products?

[@ChemicalGuys]

Hi Enric! Whenever performing multiple steps it will achieve a better result than using an all in one product. Sprayable Leather is perfect for maintaining new/clean leather goods whereas it would be best to detail dirty leather with Leather Cleaner and Leather Conditioner. - CG Nick

[@cocoyummy]

Great video Nick which one should I buy Maxii suds 2 and which flavor. Or Watermelon snow foam??

Why doesn’t my product foam up like yours? Is there something different over the past few years? It seems to be picking up dirt, but just looks different. Purchased from the chemical guys amazon store.

[@UTWR4NGL3R]

Ive been using this on my seats for a year now and they still look and feel great. Always hear comments about how the interior still looks and smells new. Never quite get this level of lather though. I clean my car at least 1x a month along with the conditioner. Is it just because there isnt a whole lot of dirt/buildup?

Hey Timothy! It is perfectly fine to use the Leather Cleaner and Leather Conditioner on perforated leather. Avoid build up by spraying your brush or towel rather than the surface of the seat and when applying protection, spread it out on the applicator to prevent heavy clots. - CG Nick

@@ChemicalGuys Nick, thanks for the quick reply!! One other question. How long does it take for the products to dry after applying the conditioner?

Leather Conditioner will begin to dry almost immediately, so it only takes a few moments before buffing off the excess. - CG Nick

[@DanielChaves1984]

How many layers should you do?

[@ChemicalGuys]

Hi Daniel! Depending on the condition of the leather it may be fine with one coat or if it absorbs rapidly it may take multiple coats to rejuvenate and protect. - CG Nick

[@DanielChaves1984]

What would be a good indicator that it has absorbed enough?

[@ChemicalGuys]

After letting the conditioner sit on the surface for a moment and there is excess left behind it means the leather has been nourished and now longer dry.
