No luck w/ search function. I have no idea what to treat the seats with. Any info would be appreciated.

 

Lots of info on the board, just hard to find due to the site's not-so-great search engine.

Try Aerospace 303. Seems to be the preferred treatment for leatherette by most of the OCDetailers here, including me.

 

Yup, 303 works great on them. If they are real dirty, wipe them down with soap and water. You can use auto wash or even dawn dish soap, just a few drops in a gallon of water, then rinse, them apply the 303.

Or you can use Nero from Detailers Paradise.

Very topical discussion, as yesterday us locals were treated to a get-together at Detailers Paradise to discuss iinterior detailing.

All plastic/vinyl parts (except painted parts) can be treated in the same manner. If dirty, cleaned with either a cleaning product or soap and water and then wiped down with a protectant. If not dirty, then that step can be skipped. 303 is the protectant of choice because it has the highest UV protection of the protectant products. It is slightly shinier than the Nero, so if you prefer more of a matt finish, then you should either use Nero or you can wait a few minutes until dry and buff the shine out. Thanks to Heather, as I actually sound like I know what I'm talking about.

For improved searching try using Google like this: site:northamericanmotoring.com cleaning leatherette

 

Thanks!
I will Google as to where to buy it.

Prima Nero 50:50 with distilled water for me.

 

I use Nero as well, full strength though

 

I bought some 303 at an outdoor furniture store. I followed the directions regarding "the more you dry buff the better it protects". That was a workout but the seats look great. Thanks for the info. Luckily it says use every 6-8 weeks.
