Hi,

My roof was leaking a bit this morning after very heavy rain so I decided to get some silicone spray grease. Anyway as I was in a bit of a rush some of the overspray has gone on to the seats and surrounding areas..

Usually i'd go and get the leather cleaner but i'm working away and can't do that until the weekend. The question is; Is the grease likely to damage my seats in anyway?

Cheers

 

I doubt it will be a problem, just wipe it off. Maybe use a bit of fairy liquid which will remove grease. (you must have seen the ads!)

 

Cheers

I've just used some fairy on a damp sponge to wipe the seats down. They are looking a bit dry now though, desperately need some leather conditioner on them

 

seats a bit dry looking?

try silicon grease spray!

 

Good idea, i'll try it now

 

Neutral colour leather shoe polish.?

 

Never use fairy liquid or any other detergents on leather.

Only use Lux Natural Soap Flakes.

Dissolve copious amounts of flakes in tepid to warm water, make lots of suds (so you don't need a bucket full of water) then take only the suds from the top on a damp (NOT wet cloth) and rub in a circular motion on the grease (pronounced GREEZ).

Dry with a soft dry microfibre or similar towel and leave to dry by air.

Soap is a natural derivative of oil other washing liquids are not and contain detergents that can corrode and dry out the leather, fairy liquid is also believed to contain salt.

You can redo with natural soap flakes, then use a leather 'feeder' or treatment, anything with natural bees wax or similar.
