I was recently conditioning my porsche ventialed seats and used a little to much conditioner.Now there are patches on the seats where the excessive conditioner has dried and is left in the holes.Any ideas or products that will remove the dried up conditioner.Trying to remove it with a needle hole by hole is insane and does not really work.I would love some good advive.Thanks in advance!

 

What products was it?

You may want to use a leather cleaner with soft bristle brush, like horse hair.

That should begin dissolving the conditioner and then you can wipe with mf towel. Then vacuum the area to suck up any moisture. My next step would be to get anything left behind with a small wooden toothpick.

 

Hi Moe, thanks for responding.The conditioner I used was 1Z Einszett Leather Care.I just used a little to much and it left residue in a few different areas.Is there a certain horse hair brush you recommend and where can I buy it...Thanks

 

1Z Einszett Leather Care contains wax, which will permeate the perforations and harden

Leather Master™ Foam Cleaner - the advantage of foam over liquid is the minimum amount of moisture, very important for cleaning absorbent and moisture sensitive (Aniline, including perforated) finished or non-finished leathers. Leather Master™ Foam Cleaner is a solvent free pump action product, which is extremely efficient for the cleaning of general soiling and water based stains.
For deep cleaning foam cleaner is the most effective way of getting a thorough clean on leather. The foam allows the cleaner dwell time so that the dirt can be lifted more easily. The foam holds the dirt in suspension, avoiding the possibility of being simply pushed around or being re-deposited on the surface.

 

Thanks TOGWT....do you think this will remove the residue?

 

The foam cleaner is their 'Strong Cleaner', which is their strongest cleaner but in a foam version. I've found that it will remove 99% of stains

 

Stupid question but do you feel the wax residue is a stain and will come out?

 

Not really a stain as such, but the cleaner should remove it.


Perforated Leather
Use LeatherMaster™ Foam Cleaner along with aSwissvax Leather Brush that is made from durable natural bristles in optimum length, strength and rigidity and is highly recommended for cleaning finished perforated leather

Gently rub over the grained surfaces in slow repeated circles, especially on light coloured leathers where the dirt can become deeply ingrained and hard to remove. A fairly stiff bristle brush can be used to agitate the foam cleaner into the grain pattern or perforations; this enables the cleaning of the micro pores and creases and lifts the dirt out and reveals any further problems that require attention. Remove reside with a 100% cotton micro fibre towel (Zymol or Swisswax)

 

Thank You TOGWT...any tips that you suggest in using this foam to remove the residue....should I use a horse hair brush to kinda rub it in the seats?
