Thumbs up Cleaning my leather seats WOW!

I have had my SUB for a 3 weeks and of course it was detailed etc. It is in incredible condition....I lucked out.


I noticed the very light grey seats still looked dingy (sp?) so I was searching youtube for some cleaning ideas. VIOLA found one I liked and made sense.


TIDE! very small amount in shallow bucket of warm water very small amount of warm water, like 2 -3 quarts, finger nail brush, white soft cloth.


After scrubbing wipe off excess.


The stitching even dried to the correct color


Here are some pics side by side

Wow. Never would have thought of Tide. Great tip, thanks! I've always used Saddle Soap and it does a good job, too.
