help needed...

GGirl · 11-29-2011, 08:29 PM

I have a new '11 G37x (yes, I know, not a BMW), and stupidly wore a new pair of jeans in her for about 2 minutes when I had to move the car unexpectedly...so now I have a blue-tinted ivory leather driver's seat.

Is there a product or method that will best get the tint off my seat? There's an AutoZone up the street, and I have basic household cleaning stuff and Coach leather cleaner on hand, but was hoping for a little guidance vs trial and error. Thanks!

If all you have up the street is an Auto Zone, they should have Lexol Leather Cleaner. It will gently clean the tint but make sure you condition afterward with a Leather Conditioner.

Follow the directions and it will come off

For OTC stuff Lexol is probably best, can source anywhere Walmart, Target, Auto Parts stores

Leather masters strong cleaner works great for this. I have very light leather in my car as well and it removes the transfer in no time

Thanks for all the recommendations! I'll try the Lexol, since it doesn't need to be ordered, and I can pick it up this weekend at Target or AutoZone, and clean and condition the seat....
