LEATHER
Caring for leather seats is not particularly difficult, however, it does take regular attention to ensure that the life of the leather is preserved for years to come. When leather is conditioned regularly the surface remains supple and strong, ensuring that the surface stays intact and lasts in line with the life of the car.
When you have leather seats it is important to avoid parking in direct sunlight where the leather can discolour and dry out. If leather is left to its own devices it will eventually begin to discolour and crack as it loses moisture. Dry leather also wears more readily with friction from entering and leaving the car.
Leather conditioning treatments should be completed at least twice per year, or as frequently as once a month. It is something that you can do at home, though it’s best left to the experts who will ensure that they use high-quality products and technique to extend the life of your leather seats.
A leather treatment at Magic Hand Carwash starts with removing dirt that has built up over time, which can cause discolouration. Then using a special conditioner, which leaves no residue, the leather is moisturised instantly improving its appearance and protecting it from drying, cracking and staining. The conditioner decreases how porous the leather is, meaning if you do have a spill in the car, often the leather can be wiped over with a damp cloth without any evidence being left behind.
