  1. this whole time i didnt even notice about the cleaning of the leather seats her damn boobs kept breaking my concentration

  2. I search for a video on how to clean leather seats because my leather seats are actually dirty and stained. this is a video on how to wipe down already very clean leather seats. All Americans are actually cunts!

  3. ya, generally if you are a clean person, clean cloths, tidy etc, all you have to do is periodically wipe your upholstery with a damp cloth or chamois. Now, if you want to go and restore older cars that have a neglected and dirty interior, then that is the time to look for info on how to “restore” your upholstery.

  4. This is too complicated….cream of tartar..LOL

    I have custom white leather seats in my Z4 and my friend turned me on to a $3 solution…Mr. Clean Magic Eraser. It took me 10 min of cleaning. My seats were looking gray from having top down a lot. The eraser literally erased the dirt off. I finished with conditioner I got from Chemical Guys

    Trust me I used to use all these fancy cleaners and all they do is take too long for mediocre results. If it works on white seats it will work on any

  5. Damn, I thought I was maybe just a huge perv. Glad to see that everyone else noticed the boobs too. Thanks ViggoM35 for the advice on the brush, I think that’s my problem. I’ve got light-grey leather seats and 8 years of use… nothing is cleaning up…

  6. LOL, hard to miss the hotty in the vid. Was the person with the camera a little distracted or was this deliberate?
    For older cars with dirt in deep cracks of the leather, use a soft bristle scrub brush. I notice most of these vids only clean like new seats.

  7. i have my own special leather conditioner right here on my towel thanks to our friend in the vid 🙂
