Leather

We recently purchased a 2012 G37 Vert/Vibrant Red/Wheat 9K miles. Since the interior is Wheat, my dark clothing (jeans) is discoloring the seat. I'm looking for suggestions to clean & condition the leather and purchase a seat cover.

Welcome to the site, I'm going to move it to the detail section for more replies.

I now have a Q50 and it Black on Stone and Feel your pain on the Jeans...
What I found to work is use Lexol Cleaner and use their Conditioner and finisher to do our seats and it takes away the Blueness from our Jeans...I love the Color of the leather and though its a pain the the BUTT to keep clean...Since I've been doing the Lexol treatment once a month it stays supple and no more issues with the Blue'ing from my jeans.

Its a 3 bottle group and you can but it at any auto part store or Walmart...

Pristine clean is what should be use to clean leather. Lexol leaves a a shiny finish though it may not be noticable on wheat but it does on blacks

Leatherique and Pinnacle leather products are the best I've used. Both are excellent choices.

Pinnacle makes a good cleaner & conditioner spray, but nothing beats a 2 stage process which splits the cleaner from the conditioner.

I just started using Zymol Z-509 Leather Conditioner and Lexol leather cleaner. Zymol has a cleaner as well but I have not tried it. You can find Zymol on Amazon for about $10.

The Chemical Guys "Leather Kit"
Amazon.com: Chemical Guys SPI10916 Leather Cleaner and Conditioner Complete Leather Care Kit - 16 oz. (2 Items): Automotive Amazon.com: Chemical Guys SPI10916 Leather Cleaner and Conditioner Complete Leather Care Kit - 16 oz. (2 Items): Automotive

I use this on my TSX since it has tan leather and it works really good better than most at the store. I use it on my G as well but since it's black leather I can't really tell. But my TSX has had jean stains and using this product with a little scrub has had minimize the color.
