How to Remove an Old Stain from Leather
Вставка
- Опубліковано 2 сер 2012
- To remove old stains from leather and other interior surfaces you should use a step process. Increase the level of aggressiveness with each step until you remove the stain. This stain was caused by the client's daughter about 12 years prior to the day this video was taken. She accidentally spilled paint on the leather and it has been there ever since.

I have to say you're pretty good I've been Detailing for some years and I like your work!
Used this technique on my buddy's Honda interior to get little old paint spots out of the seat. Worked wonders!
Larry these videos must feel like a you tube time capsule. Well done sir.
I had accidently spilled wood stain, and it had trickled down my leather sofa which I had not noticed at the time. I had tried everything to remove it before watching your video. Your third method worked an absolute treat and completely removed the stain. Thank you so much! 😊
Thank you! Spilled latex house paint on my leather, plastic interior cleaner and brush like yours cleaned, perfect result.
You look like you need some sleep Larry. Haha. Awesome video!!!
Wow, that really worked! And I just used a plain kitchen scrub pad. Thanks very much!
It looks like a Dobie Pad, made by Scotch-Brite. Dobie is intended for washing dishes and is well-known for being safe for delicate nonstick pans where other plastic scrubbers are too harsh. When I saw what pad he was using, I could tell he was knowledgeable.
thanks for the info!!
Hi Larry, I have been following your leather clean methods, they are really educational and helpful. But my case is challenging. The beige leather interior was ruined by Windex. And there are very visible yellowed areas on the leather. Is there a way to restore the yellowed leather? Thank you!
Hey, I have a super soft interior cleaner and gentle brush to agitate the surface of the leather. Then remove with a microfiber towel.
thanks for the detailing vids
i used the scrub pad method. time consuming but fun, at the end. the leather looks much cleaner & got stains out
Interior cleaner, brush, and a towel to soak up the wet spot. Super easy. Good luck!
Hey Larry, ive done a few details for friends and family and a big part for me has always been their reaction once I show the finished car to them. This video got me thinking, could you do a video of some of the reactions you get from customers? It might be a bit awkward pointing the camera at them, but if possible I think it would be cool to show one of the more rewarding parts of detailing someone else's car.
I love the videos btw, it always gets me motivated for the Saturday morning clean :)
hey with these new car seats. how do i remove water stain? can you make a video on that.
While the paint is gone, the abraded leather surface where you removed the paint, is still visible at the end of the job. Was this picture taken before or after you put leather conditioner and/or a leather wax or protectant on that area? Great job in removing the old, dried paint spot.
Was watching this to help me on my '92 S4 and realised you're working on the same car here! Do you have any more vids on this car?
Nice work one of my “Go To” cleaners ive used over the years is the original non Pumus Go Jo hand cleaner a great thing about it is its safe on your skin and cleans up with just water plus its pretty cheap and easy to find ive used it on my own $ several thousand dollar couch in my living room and i beleive the Lanolin actually conditioned the leather although I’m not a Scientist BTW ive used their Orange Pumus degreaser to polish a Motorcyle Engine on the bike using a Rotary tool and polishing attachments why you ask? It was indoors and i didnt want toxic fumes Or have to wear respirators ! I did however use other polishing compounds for some of the final buffings my next motorcycle i will however do the motor with it out of the frame and apart to make it easier to get into all the small areas probably clamping many of the parts in my vise and Saddle makers leather clamp that can tightly hold odd shaped parts I built the clamp myself as i do use it for hand Stitching leather projects as well
What exact cleaner did you use? I know that details have access to types of cleaners not usually on the public market. Or is it like commercial grade stuff
Thank you as a kid I get resin every where and this really helped
Nice but are you using a Magic Eraser or a Dolby Pad, and what cleanser?
Instead of plastic cleaner, get white Feibings saddle soap for leather and that will pull way more off than any other cleaner without hurting or changing the leather. You could still use your rag and brush process with saddle soap too. I work leather for a living, you can also use feibings leather balm for cleaning with a flat finish. The reason this worked was because you basically wet sanded the leather with that abrasive cloth and that soap but saddle soap will blow your mind on shine… and clarity of the original leather color.
Got a pink stain in white leather sofa from a drink called s9motomax nothinks getting it out what's best idea
What do you recommend for removing an old oil or water strain on a BMW? I've tryed meguires and lexol but they don't work on it
Whoa, Larry without his trademark black nitril gloves...I've gotta buy some AMMONYC products, they look awesome.
I have an old grease stain on my back leather seat on my acura tl. I have tried just water, then just a leather cleaner , than just degreaser diluted 10:1, diluted 4:1. I'm at a lost. Should I try a steamer next?
I would also suggest lightly heating the leather with either a heat gun or a hair dryer before applying cleaners and conditioners. It gets the pores in the epidermis to open allowing the chemicals to penetrate deeper.
Exactly like a steamer but a million times better
What is that pad you use for scrubbing made of? It's really scraping a bit, right?
Thanks for great videos and effort. I was wondering if you had a chance to shoot a video on alcantara. Can't seem to find it. If not can you offer a quick advise on cleaning alcantara. I still have some Adam's cleaning solutions. Have both carpet/upholstery and plastic/leather cleaners. Not sure which one is better. Thanks!
HI how would i remove a curry stain to a cream leather interior using home products please ive used a milton sterilisation tablet which has helped a little would you recommend i leave it on as a paste and for how long?
Not to sound self serving, but I'm releasing my interior cleaner called "Lather" in the next few weeks. In the mean time, you can use warm water and the slightest bit of dish soap. Very little...and work it slowly and gently. Its not ideal, but if you are in a pinch.
Hey bro that was awesome I have an issue have somebwood chairs I bought and were still alil wet from the finish it got on the ivory vinyl pad any ideas I. Tried everything
Hi came across your video while looking for tips on how to clean a stain on white couch leather. My dog throw up and went trough the tin protective sheets. Would be able to provide me a specific plastic cleaner brand and/or yours if it’s out
Larry, what about using magic eraser on leather, safe ? effective for stain such as this one ?
thanks for the reply. Sorry to bother again but what kind of interior cleaner would you recommend? Upholstery cleaner?
I know headliner is sensitive so I wanted to have all the right steps down before I clean it.
Thank you
Any tips for leather bags? Old water/oil-based stains?
What leather conditioner do you use? Also, what do you usually clean alcantara with and maintain it?
Looks like your client should've asked you 2 people ago! Great job!
I have light grey leather seats and they have yellow stains from sunscreen. Any idea how I would go about tackling that problem?
Thank you!
@ James Ryan. I believe that the scrub pad is a 3M Dobie scrub pad.
:Larry, I have a Newer Audi TTS 2011 with a tow tone Black interior with grey inserts (seats). After a few years of jumping in and out of the car with jeans and such, the light grey on the corner of the seat has dark blue(almost black) stain. How would you approach this problem (product) and get the stain out. thanks I am a Fan great Job Larry!
I have a question. how can can you tell the difference between discoloration and a stain on leather? I have a greenish blotch on my driver's side seat that puzzles me. I'm almost thinking it's discoloration from wear and might need a good dye job and condition, or it's a stain, I can't figure it out
I got a stain on my leather car seat i think its from when i spilled ranch on it any tips? Would this help?
i'm definitely going to buy your stuff!!
Apologies if someone asked before, but what is the name of the spray used?
@ANMO NYC My sons black recaro car seat bleed into my red leather seat in my M3, I’m assuming from him spilling his drinks and it left a huge black mark. Any tips on how to get it out or what to use? I’m tried soap and water, leather cleaner but that’s about it. Hope you answer thank you
Awesome. Miracle man.
How can I remove aged and harden leather conditioner on car seats? I scrubbed off some with a gentle soap but other areas are not possible to remove, even with a scrub brush. What remains looks like a shinning clear coat.
Thanks bud!
What do you suggest for taking off jean dye transfer from a beige interior leather in a Bentley?
Lol you got done and said "where was it?" nuff said

I have a small jeans stain on my white leather car seat, what is the safest way to remove it? I’ve tried turtlewax luxe leather which didn’t work out, and im afraid to damage the leather using a magic eraser .
How do you get rid of the white stain/marks left by isopropyl alcohol? I tried to spot clean my couch with it and what it did is left a white marks.

How do you wrinkles smoothed out, it's not creased. But if left I'm worried it will dry and crack.

He seemed irritated or not happy in this video so I thought he was gonna whip out a flamethrower after saying "Step 3..."
What is the name of the plastic cleaner you used? Thanks! Nice vid!
That's what I'd like to know
Same
Great videos! Will this work for ink as well?
For ink try a product called Amodex... it's not specifically made for car detailing, but is amazing stuff and is an indispensable tool in your arsenal once you discover it!
(I work with leather and had discovered it after researching the best product to remove ink stains with without harming the leather at all, and decided to give it a try after seeing it was very highly recommended and also fairly easy to find... even some major office supply/stationary retailers carry it, and of course Amazon too).
Well, I was so thrilled with the results (that was many years ago that I'd discovered it), that it's now definitely my 'go-to' cleaner for ink stains on leather (and many other surfaces as well)... and also works on a number of other types of stains too.
I realize your comment is a year old now, but hopefully this is helpful info for anyone looking for an easy, safe, and excellent way to deal with otherwise normally stubborn ink stains (or others of that sort)!
What can i use to remove dry paint off leather?
I stained the leather with chocolate months ago and used a foamy glass cleaner with a non-stick kind of pad because I didn't have any leather cleaner -- leather looks new again -- thanks

great job❤
I have a 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee leather and suede black seats... I got some type of glue (maybe super glue) stuck to it. Any ideas?

Try the steps he did, if it does not come out when you may need a steam cleaner to get some heat. But a leather cleaner and a brush works good!

My gray leather interior on my '07 Corvette is stained with sunscreen. I've tried everything and can't remove the green color stain. Do you have any product which will work to remove the stain?
Tim Hassel
Were to buy that pad
Those headphones really show this video’s age lol. Thanks for the trick!
What kind of scrub pad is that?
Why does the "what type of scrub pad are you using?" question never get amswered despite several people asking???
It looks like Scotch-Brite Dobie All Purpose Cleaning Pad. I think its that one because we use them in our household. They're pretty good. It's a sponge encased in a plastic feeling mesh type thing....you'll see if you buy them. You should be able to find it at your local Target or Walmart. If not, then internet :P

Could this work on a leather purse?
"Goo gone" products work good on untreated paint. It took spray paint off of a motorcycle fairing. The paint was baked on for years over the rear fairing clear coat. none abrasive. Looked brand new.
