303 Aerospace for leather?

Hey all,

I have this product and it leaves a nice matte finish on the dash trim. But is it okay to use on leather? Or should I go with an actual leather cleaner?

DetailedImage is running a sale on leather cleaners, and $4.99 shipping, so I want to get either more 303, or something you all might recommend as better?

Thanks!

I've never tried 303 on leather and I can't recall it saying on the bottle that it is safe for leather. There's so many options for leather cleaners out there that just to be safe you probably want to pick from any of the detailing vendors from here.

I've used 303 for the dash, tires, and other plastic trim pieces but have not nor will I risk using it on the leather. A lot of vendors including us carry leather cleaners. It's up to you to try and see which products works for you best

303 Would work well, I would recommend with the current sale you try a few and see what you like best and then just buy in bulk the next time. If you do go with 303 just make sure you use it sparingly, a little goes a long way.

I've used the 303 on the leather and it looks fantastic. Our Dakota has a urethane (vinyl) coating on it anyways, so why not.
