This is the video I was searching for to do this. Clear and to the point, really well done. Thank you for making this.
I’ve been looking for a way to fix this forever! The shiny leather drives me crazy
This is actually not a real “problem” because the shiny leather only happens with real leather! Faux leather doesn’t develop a patina as it doesn’t absorb natural oils.
Yeah, I mean fake leather in new cars is usually not shiny, that's why I hate when you you put a conditioner and makes it shiny lol
@Daniel-mw7pu this would go against what my manufacturer says lol. Supposedly lexus uses a fake leather yet my seat and steering wheel are glossy
Got everything mentioned here, and in the comments, loaded into my Amazon cart. Ready to make my Cadillac’s leather look brand new again. ⚡️🤙🏼⚡️
Brilliant worked on my seats! Thanks.
I’m a detailer, this is a good method, chemical guys interior cleaner is good but not the best however it still works just fine… a good sub to this foam pad he’s using is the scrub ninja which is meant for interior detailing. It’s very similar to this pad however less abrasive. This method he’s using works just fine, it’s just a little more aggressive then what you need. This is the method to use!
Is it safe to use this method long term?
@@OppKilla6523 yes, however if you frequently clean your truck just use a wet microfiber and a dry microfiber and do a good light buff/ wipe of the leather. If not then every once in a while use this method shown in the video when it gets to an overwhelming greasy, shiny finish.
What is better than Chemical guys? Whats the best? Scrub ninja is already on the way..
@@drostly3220 I like gyeon leather cleaner and p&s xpress interior. The xpress interior was originally formulated as a leather cleaner, after realizing it was a good all purpose interior cleaner they re labeled it as a interior cleaner safe for leather.
@@ANB_Mobile_Detailing_Orlando Thanks.. I'll check it out..
Thanks for the upload, love the car man
CORRECT, cleaning is the key, finally a good product, I use to get from my local car leather guy a different product only they can get their hands on and this is absolutely the key cleaning the leather makes wonders.
Had my E55 AMG done a few years back and got a bottle but is finish and been looking ever since for alternative I really hope this is it thank you for sharing love your video and I can not comment enough how correct you are in everything you say.
I know this first hand as I did mess my AMG up first buy using a so called leather cleaner that just smerred all the leather in and it got totally dirty instead and well spend hours cleaning it out I am happy finally to have found something that works thank you
BUT to everyone TEST on a small arear first that is not visible as not all interior are the same -
always do a test first ok
Thank you for the kind words! I absolutely agree with you that it is important to test on a discrete area first. I hope this works out for you!
Fantastic, thank you
Thank you for the video - something to keep in mind is that almost all modern leather has a coating (basically plastic) on top of it - much of which also has the color in it. Provided that the cleaner won't damage other plastics in the interior most of the car's leather is fine too. Great tip on the scrub pad - I'll be adding those to my detailing supplies now - before it was just micro fiber cloths, brushes and lots of cleaner/VLR which can end up making surfaces "sticky" even when they are clean. The only word of caution is that some steering wheels use different leather and are (ironically) less robust than the seat material you actually need to be more careful with your car's wheel than just the seats....
So i might be one of the odd ones here. I have a brand new high-end racing simulator wheel I just destroyed by wiping it with alcohol. The parts i scrubbed hard with alcohol is now shiny, and the surrounding all white. The original color is satin black. I used some oil to make the white parts satin again. but the shiny parts are still shiny after I oiled, I think it might have lost a coating of some sort. any suggestions?
Usually shiny leather were caused by too much oil, but i fear what I am experiencing, even though still "shiny" problem, might be a different from too much oil rather no oil left>?? Confusing
What part of Michigan you in the Northville Plymouth area it looks like you are
thanks for the help
amazing
This won't damage the leather?
Pro detailer approved
We used those scrub brushes and soft scrub on tan leather
would this work with fake leather
Thanks for the advice , I just detailed my car yesterday before all the snow we got last night in coldwater .and I was just 🤔 why my leather keeps getting that shine .when it warms back up I will deffinatley be doing this cant wait .
Glad I could help! Keeping the leather pores clean will definitely help reduce the unwanted shine
@@MichiganMuscle thanks again
Thanks for the video, the results are truly amazing.
However, you should keep in mind the this sponge is tearing away the top layer of the leather.
I won't show at first, but after a couple of times, you will see little torn pieces on the surface.
So just be careful.
I'm told baby wipes does that exact finish, but I have not tried it yet.,..
Any links for the slightly abrasive cleaning pad - if it’s the secret weapon
or just use a standard degreaser for a third of the cost
nice, Ive been watching people use magic erasers but i this this method will be much more forgiving
Tiktok made me come see this video
Same
I’m here too
What's the name of that cleanser again?
Use Woolite or Wool Wash from Dollar Tree. 5 parts water to 1 part Woolite. Solid affordable cleaner that will not ruin you car seats leather.
What you are doing is scrubbing the colour coating on the leather . On the seat for instance it’s the friction of the leather and the material of your pants that makes the surface shiny. By scrubbing the leather you are dulling the colour coat , no different to sanding the duco on the car . I wouldn’t be scrubbing the leather regularly as you will eventually remove the colour coat from the leather
What happened to the ford GT project???. It’s been 3 years
It’s been a headache getting parts for the car, finally got a parts car a few days ago! Hoping to start making videos on the Ford GT again soon!
⚠️ This made my BMW 7 series leather look worse. Careful with this method!!
A magic eraser does a great job as well.

I have offered you sth
Use a micro fibre clothe at the end with a bucket of very hot water and just wet and wipe off everything . Do it few times swill be even better
