white stitching black leather

[YoSteve]

Anyone have experience keeping white stitching on black leather clean? I read posts on how to clean stitching and it scares me that I will be in that boat, so I`m opting for prevention.

After I condition my seats, i`m going to waterproof the seams to start.

Cheers

I have that combo on a pair of shoes. Primarily, I avoid getting them dirty. and I clean them with stuff that doesn`t do a solvent-action on the leather`s dye. Then I maintain with a neutral-colored product. It`s really about not getting the stitching soiled IMO.

For that combo on a vehicle interior, I`d protect with Leather Doctor`s stuff (I like the unscented version). For that matter, I`d just use his cleaner, rinse agent, *and* the protectant. Yeah, big PIA to order from him but worth it for me.
