Taking care of perforated leather seats.

Lviv777 · 12-13-2018, 05:47 PM

New to my e70, it comes with ventilated seats and I don't want to get the holes clogged up by using liquid leather conditioner. Any tips for taking care of perforated leather seats? And any recommendation on what product to use? Thanks!

I’ve used my normal leather cleaner in the past- just go on the light side. Buffing off any excess should take care of any cleaner in the holes.

Agreed.

Rub it into the cloth first and spread it, go with a very thin amount of product.

I like the Meguiars leather wipes, easy to use, and they don't have an excess of product per wipe.
