How to care for your custom leather interior

FOR SPOTS & SPILLS

Blot excess liquid immediately with a clean absorbent cloth or sponge. If necessary, use clear, lukewarm water and gently wipe the spill. If water is used, clean the entire area where the spill occurred. Dry with a clean towel and allow to air dry. Do not dry wet areas with heat dryers, hairdryers, etc. as this will damage the leather.

FOR STUBBORN SPOTS & SPILLS

Use a mild solution of Ivory® bar soap and clear, lukewarm water. Apply the soap solution to a clean, moist sponge or soft cloth and blot the area. Do not apply force or pressure, as the heat and friction of rubbing will damage the leather. Rinse and allow to air dry naturally.

Do not USE

• Saddle soaps, oils, abrasives, cleaners containing detergent (such as dishwashing liquids)
• Solvent-based cleaners (such as mineral spirits)
• Varnish or ammonia water or silicone-based products

Note regarding Blue Dye Transfer: Some clothing items (such as darker jeans) contain dyes that may transfer to lighter color upholstery surfaces, including lighter color automotive leathers.  This dye transfer occurs naturally over time and does not reflect a defect in the finish of the leather. If you are concerned about the possibility of blue dye transfer, we recommend that you consider a darker color for your leather interior.
