Don't keep peeves at pets, they are very annoying.

how did y’all know I needed this video today?

I will be taking delivery of my first car with leather seats whenever the Subaru stop sale for the Outback is lifted. Being my first experience with leather seats, I am digging into videos on what to do to keep it from cracking, staining, etc. You guys make it look simple to keep the seats and interior looking like new... Ordered a box of goodies from Chemical Guys to prepare, even if I shouldn't have to do anything to the interior right away.

Just used your leather cleaner after a few minutes with a detail brush night/day difference thank you!

Wow. I used the same leather cleaner product shown in the video and I’m beyond astonished on how clean my steering wheel got. I watched so many vids and no of them seemed to work. Im glad I came across this video. Great video 👍

Does this work on 2007 steering wheel ? Or should I use steamer? There's heavy heavy residue

Bought this product and tried it while remaining skeptical. Was blown away by the fact that it actually worked, the shininess on a steering wheel is my pet peeve and this removed most if not all of it when I used their method.

@@RealKevGotEm not saying you shouldn’t. I wouldn’t. It’s an abrasive material. So if a wheel is too old it may end up damaging it. I’d only use them on heavily saturated steering wheels. But that’s me, I’m not a professional by any means. We used to use them all the time (literally nightly), at one of my old jobs and it would mess up everyone’s hands. So I’d use gloves and very sparingly.

Hi Mikey6048! Alcantara is very sensitive to cleaning so I recommend using a clean microfiber towel that is damp with Leather Cleaner and gently wipe in one direction using light pressure to prevent matting the fibers.

@ryanbrown918

Alcantara is tough, the gentler the cleaner is, the better. Like Nick mentioned, wipe in one straight direction, dont swirl or go back and forth, as that ruins the fibers.

Will this leather cleaner remove any dressing that was applied in the past and restore the leather to its original matte finish? My dealership ruined my car interior’s matte finish by adding dressing to the leather seats, wheel, dashboard, panels, and center console.
