Steps on How to Clean Leather Car Seats

Our team at Audi North Austin will help you take care of your leather car seats in Georgetown: 

  • Vacuum- To remove dirt, dust, and debris, you'll want to vacuum your seats. 
  • Apply Cleanser- Use a pH-neutral cleaning solution on the leather. If your seats have perforations, take care to avoid getting any liquid cleaner into them. 
  • Wipe Seats- Gently clean the seats using a microfiber cloth or soft-bristled brush. 
  • Condition Leather- Take an approved leather conditioner and apply it to your seats, using a microfiber cloth to work into the surface gently. Allow the conditioner to dry, and then buff it using another microfiber cloth. This step is essential to avoid cracking.
