White seats - best way to protect them?

[twinturbo11]

Hey guys, just got my car, and was wondering what is the best way to preserve the white seats - i am especially worried about dark blue jeans. I live in a hot/sunny area - not sure if this impacts anything.

Amazon.com

Have used this also, seems pretty good along with a regular leather feed, am very much liking this at the moment:

Luxe Leather 500ml

Triple action car leather cleaner formula that cleans, refreshes, and protects leather, rubber & plastic with a PH balanced blend of cocoa butter & aloe.

valeter should be able to protect them, but worst case would be to hunt someone out to re-conolise every so often

Yes… Ice Grey

In their demo video , they applied it on black leather. I think white leather is EXTREMELY sensitive/finicky, can discolor very easily... i was wondering if you had tried it on the white leather?

Since day 1 I put it on my tan leather and I’m extremely happy with that , only wet towel for full cleaning them every week

Is true that maybe could down the tone of the leather to a slightly darker colour , in the tan leather is even grateful that

I have Ice Grey and another forum member who does too suggested I try the following:

- GTechniq L1 Leather Guard.​

Easy to apply, assists with wiping off marks. I apply to heavy use areas (seats) every 2 months apparently that helps. Or 6 monthly (i think) otherwise . Buy an applicator with it, and a Microfibre cloth to wipe excess off after application (instructions on bottle).

I purchased a bunch of detailing stuff and just so happened for interior cleaning, I again purchased a GTechniq product - "L2 Tri-Cleaner Antibacterial All Surface". Works with the L1 coating.

I use that L2 product with microfiber to wipe down any marks. 1800km in, seats are looking fresh still. Minor slight scratch on passenger side (she has received her first and final warning )

I have had no issue with my blue jeans or black jeans as of yet.
Welcome to the IG family.

I think I may try the Gtechniq stuff, too.

 

[Pegasi]

Yes… Ice Grey

I want to spec them as well. Glad this thread was created.

 

[danmessy]

I think I may try the Gtechniq stuff, too.

I recall either reading or on Gteqniqs site/instruction videos it saying get the stuff on asap when new, and then to repeat at X intervals.

Maybe just wear white clothes from now on? Or try this from the 70’s….

For those that have had Ice Grey inteior for a while, how are they holding up? I am planning on applying GTechniq L1 Leather Guard day 1.
