[syddog 2000]

Anyone have recomendations for a good cleaner for the ventilated seats? I have the Ivory seats and want to keep them that color
Thanks

I used to show cars, and had two with white leather seats. My favorite product was Griot's Garage leather system. For cars with perforated seats (such as the ones I showed), the products did not "gunk up" and were not "greasy."

ive used 303 with good results, not too shiny or oily.

Both replies above are good. I use Mothers works well

For a quick touch up I have used a meguairs combo cleaner conditioner spray. When I really feel like doing it right I use Zymol. It is two separate products so there is a lot of work and elbow grease involved. It it does last. Never put a glob of conditioner on the ventilated part. Put it on the smooth part and work it with the cloth and then use the moist cloth with product on the holes. I never use any kind of conditioner on Alcantara. I hate that stuff but it is the only option on the Laramie. For that try a soft brush and a damp rag. If you are brave you can use some kind of scotch guard on it but it will likely darken it. I don’t do that but my kids are old enough they don’t spill. If you have Alcantara and small kids I suggest seat covers.

Lexol is the best and its been around for a while

I've been using Leather Masters products on my other cars leather interiors for years - no affiliation but I do suggest checking them out.

I'll second Lexol...Have used it for years with good results. I have never had a leather seat crack or split from sun exposure. I try and apply it twice a year.

Lots of good responses, thanks all.

Don’t the care direction tags that come on the back of the headrest say to use soap and water only?

Believe it or not, the mild soap and water is best. I use 10:1 distilled water and $1 store generic woolite. Scrub spots with a tooth brush and then use a leather protector if wanted...

Colourlock mild leather cleaner & protector worked EXCELLENT on the Ski Gray signature leather we had in the Jeep Grand Cherokee Summit.
