How To Clean Leather Car Seats

The Essentials of Leather Seat Care

Along with a professional deep-cleaning every six months or so, a few brief minutes a week can make a significant difference on your Avon Mercedes-Benz. See below for the basics of how to clean leather car seats:

• Avoid Sun Damage: Leather seat care begins with reducing exposure to harsh sunlight and extreme conditions, as it may bleach out the leather. Find a sun shade or complete car cover with your Mercedes-Benz parts center if parking inside isn’t often an option.
• Routine Conditioning: Regular conditioning creates a protective barrier against scratches and stains. Microfiber cloths are best for applying conditioner because they don’t disturb the leather.
• Dusting: Dirt and particles can build up and create small scratches in the leather that can deepen and widen over time. Lightly dust your car seats frequently.
• Vacuuming: Vacuuming must be performed directly before applying any cleaning product to the seat leather, or dirt and debris could scratch the leather as you attempt to clean it. Be sure to use a vacuum extension without rough bristles.
