Leather in the vehicle interior adds elegance and comfort, but requires different care depending on its age and condition. Swissvax offers comprehensive solutions for smooth, open-pore, vegan leather, and Alcantara. The tailored system of cleaning, care, and sealing ensures optimal protection and long-lasting beauty – perfect for vehicle owners who demand the highest quality for their interior.
Cleaning and Sealing for New and Used Leather
New leather does not require intensive care as it is already protected by the tanning process. However, it should be sealed to prevent abrasion and color transfer. Used leather, on the other hand, often becomes brittle and cracked and needs thorough cleaning, moisture, and protection to restore suppleness.
Care for New Smooth Leather
Cleaning:
- Leather Cleaner or, for stronger stains, Leather Cleaner Forte.
- Apply the cleaner with the Cleaning Brush or a cleaning sponge in circular motions.
- Remove foam and dirt with a detail towel or the Micro-Wash Yellow.
Sealing:
Apply Leather Glaze with a fine sponge in circular motions from seam to seam. The colorless sealant protects against color transfer, dries in minutes, and leaves no shine.
Care for Used Smooth Leather
Cleaning:
- Clean the leather with Leather Cleaner or Leather Cleaner Forte and the Cleaning Brush.
- For perforated leather (e.g., ventilated seats), use a cleaning sponge.
- Remove foam with a soft towel. Work in small sections.
Care:
After drying, apply Leather Milk with a fabric applicator in a thin layer. This care emulsion is especially suitable for leather that is at least 5 years old and has a dried-out surface. Leather Milk contains nutrients, UV filters, and antioxidants that make the leather supple and resistant.
Special Solutions for Problems
Leather seats and surfaces can develop specific issues over time. With Swissvax products, you can implement targeted color refreshes, repairs, and protective measures:
- Leather Glaze: Protects new leather from color transfer and abrasion, applied with a fine sponge.
