Leather Interior Cleaning and Conditioning
Вставка
- Опубліковано 15 вер 2024
- The leather interior in a car often gets neglected and very dirty, especially if you have a light leather interior. My 1991 Daimler XJ40 that I recently purchased has one of the dirtiest leather interiors I've seen in a while. In this video I will show you my tips and tricks for leather interior cleaning and conditioning.

Very nice result! Especially the conditioner does an amazing job. 👍🏻
Just a little tip from an extremely high mileage x350 Super V8 LWB owner;
I found that cleaning the interior (including leather seats) works VERY well with a ‘miracle sponge’. Those are the white sponges made of melamine foam. I am aware they are somewhat abrasive, but with the use of a little (soapy) water they work miracles on any dirt!
Good luck with your channel and I am looking forward to the next video... 🤗
Those sponges are great! I haven’t tried them on leather but mostly on vinyl and interior plastics. Thanks for the tip!
Saddle soap...what a great idea!! Great results. Thanks.
Great video. I really need to do this to my cars...
Excellent video and key tips. I'm on the verge of cleaning and upholster my beige leather seat on my mid 90's Cadillac Coupe ELDorado. BTW, the Daimler XJ series is my top 3 dream car I would like to own as far as import auto's are concern and enjoy your videos to the max.
Yes please do make that re-colouring of the leather video! This video was very therapeutic btw. I sometimes use a magic sponge on my steering wheel because it's cream leather and get greasy but after using the sponge it really is like new.
I’ll have to try the magic sponge on leather. I’ve only used it on vinyl and plastics before.
Nice job. Like the before and after. ,👍
I love to see a video on redying the seats - mine’s beyond just a clean!
I’ll start looking at a few products and order them. Thanks for watching 😊
There’s a difference between actual dye and paint. Paint will generally flake off and cover grain patterns. True dye will just soak in.
Just found your channel today and subscribed, excellent videos! I would certainly enjoy any future videos on dyeing as this will be a project l will be undertaking in the future.
I’m glad you’re enjoying the videos Michael! Many new projects planned for each of the cars
Hi Adam. That sponge sounded like '40 ' grit sandpaper! I'm sure that was just a sensitive mic' !. Love your patience., not too many out there would share the same dedication. I think you would agree that the previous owner was no heavy weight as the seat is in sound condition. This is a great colour combination with the B.R.G. exterior and this cream contrast.
Thank you John! It's nice to find others with the same dedication. It did sound loud on camera!
The interior has amazingly little amount of wear for almost 30 years and 220,000 km
Looks very good what a difference just re dyed my interior on my xj6 but mines black so you can’t really see the dirt but it looks 100% better now I’ve done it 👍🏻👍🏻 thanks for the video really do enjoy your channel
Would really like to see how the driver seat turns out after redying!
I will order the supplies and film it. Thanks for watching 🙂
@@LivingWithAClassic Thank you, Im looking forward to it.I just discovered your channel and I like your videos allot.
I’m glad you like them!
Very informative video, thank you keep it up!!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching 😊
Great video Adam. Would love to see the leather dyed.
Thank you Steve!
Good job, Adam.
I'd like to see the carpets and headliner when you get a chance. I've got a few stains on the front floor that are partially hidden by the mats. But, I want to get those detailed.
Thanks! Sure I could do a complete carpet clean also
@@LivingWithAClassic I appreciate it, Adam.
I've been using something called "Resolve". It's a State-side carpet cleaner. Maybe I'm just not dousing it on fibers enough.
Thanks very helpful
Glad you enjoyed it!

*WHY DID I NEVER THINK OF THAT, IVE GROWN UP ON A FARM*
I “liberated” some from the stable 😅
Super Natural Leather Cleaner by Dodo Juice is what I use, it’s fantastic for getting dirt and grime off the seats.
I'll have to see if I can order that! Always nice to try new products 😊

Use Gliptone Scuff master dyes for the recolouring. Dont bother with anything else on the market
I am planning on using their dyes on another car which needs more work. I’m thinking of using their pigmented leather conditioner on this one. I think it would be a good candidate to try it on
Nice job👍. Now you can come and do mine. 😁
Now that would be a fun visa application. Reason for travel: to clean an old leather interior haha
