I honestly got confused with what he was saying with cling. This has been my observation as well. Though I haven't used a non foaming agent on leather in so long that I couldn't tell you if it is significantly harder to wipe off or not.

But hey everyone can do their own thing to achieve the same end result.


Charlie!!!! I'm waiting on that pinnacle review!

How are you still confused?

Lol I can't explain it any other way. Disagree, fine, but still confused?

Use whatever you want. Makes no difference to me.

Interior cleaning on poly seats is so simple you could use pretty much anything.

Use a interior product you like(ones over used and really liked are ammo leather lather, Adams total interior detailer, meguires d101 or d103 if you prefer non foaming) and follow the steps of that video.

Wipe with a microfiber. If it doesn't clean enough use a boars hair brush to agitate the cleaner. If that doesn't do it use an interior brush on your PC if you have one then wipe off with a microfiber. Vaccuum the perforations lightly after you have finished cleaning to your satisfaction.

Question for you guys. When you are doing a paint correction, what lights do you use to see the swirls? I have access to a quartz and a lamp on a tripod that currently has a halogen flood light. For some reason, I'm not able to see them very well with either.

Try LED at different angles. Direct sunlight is the tell all.

Also use warm lights. In my experiences I can't see nearly as well with blue colored lights. I just use a normal old flashlight because I'm not fancy enough to order one of those nice brinkman swirl finders.

Don't use any big construction type lights that give off tons of heat. You wNt the panels as cool as they can be.

Well the out rules the quartz lol. I Will try between the halogen which is yellow and a LED that is white. When I did my paint correction last year, it looked perfect in the garage but in direct Sun light I could see some swirls.
