This is what i used thus far.

After having the car 1 week (iom guts) the leather was starting to have a blue shade from all of my blue jeans.

I was scared at first :( but after spraying this meguires cleaner and wiping with cloth it removed the blue

But i was scared for a little. I decided I will clean my driver seat every other week to stop this.

either than not wearking blue jeans is there anything that can stop that?

dont say wash your jeans or buy new ones either

If I were in your position, I might look at a seat cover, which I'd use only when driving then remove, or buy a different brand of jeans.

Be careful not to clean the seats too much as you could dry out the leather or possibly cause it to wear quicker.

Smile Keeping the Leather Clean

I want to know how everyone with Leather is going to clean and treat it.

I always Loved Lexol cleaner and conditioner. The last thing I want is for my IOM seating surface to discolor.


Detail Kings help me out!

Just for the hell of it i tried the turtle wax total interior its not bad. The microfiber cloth i used after was nasty so i know its working and doesnt have that nasty greasy feel/look to it. Smells nice with a natural look to it. I was hesitant on trying the ice line from turtle wax after reading a lot of bad reviews on it but so far the wheel shine,car soap and interior have been not too bad.
