Clean white leather

[Zinprogress]

I need some advice on how to clean the white leather in my wife’s 2017 explorer platinum. The passenger seat has some light soiling. What can I use to clean it that isn’t harsh? I’m not a detailer so my knowledge on all this is pretty novice. It gets regularly wiped down with a wet microfiber cloth but that’s about it.

something like this should work well. I've always been impressed with Lexol products.

I would say the brush you use is almost as important as the product. Use something really soft so you don't scratch or damage the dye. If you are leery of damaging it then I would recommend bringing it to a professional detailing shop as paying a professional to clean the seat is a lot less expensive than damaging the seat.

Yeah I’m going to order a brush. A lot of the detailers around here will hit it hard then cover it with “protectant” that makes it all shiny and gross. Might have to take it to Scottsdale and pony up. I have no problem doing the work myself but there is so much misleading information where one guy swears by a product and right under that video is a guy saying NEVER use the product the other guy swore by.

that's why I recommended Lexol brand. They have been around for a very long time and the product is high-quality.
