Stain on my leather seat

[DaveA]

I'm an idiot and put the tonneau cover on my back seat without first putting it in the case. I left it there for a few days and now I have stains on my seat. I tried a few leather cleaning products but it's not happening. Any thoughts on getting it out? I can live with it if I have to but if I can get it out, I would certainly like to. Thanks.

Over the counter Lexol leather cleaner should do the trick, try using it first in a inconspicuous area. I'd go lite on the amount of product, don't over rub ( using a microfiber towel) it also.

I should have also mentioned not to let it dry on the leather, also use leather conditioner once you're done.

I do upholstery work for a living and for stains on leather or vinyl we use Mohawk Ink remover. Throughout the course of the material being cut, sewn, upholstered, brass nailed, accidents happen. I haven't seen anything this stuff won't take off. I even found a video of it on You Tube. It runs about $8 plus shipping from them, I couldn't find it on Amazon.

Dark would Lexo work any better than the Zainno leather cleaner? The Zainno leather cleaner didn't make a dent.

Joe thanks for the suggestion. I can order it from their web site and while a bit on the high side thanks to a $10.00 processing fee, it will be completely worth it if it works. I'll let you know.

I forgot to mention, if your using it in the perforated areas of the seats, use the brush once it's saturated from use on non perforated areas so it won't clog the perforations.

Does it come with a brush?

I don't think so. A soft bristle tooth brush works fine.

Don't mean to thread jack, but do you think that Mohawk stuff will work with a black leather stain? Had a black belt on and it rubbed on the orange part of my seat - was quoted $200 to fix it, was hoping to fix it myself if possible.

Any suggestions on how to just touch up a small scratch in the black leather seat on a 2012 ? Thanks
