Hey guys,
Lets say your using the feather brush PC accessory to clean interior leather. I`m assuming it`d be a horrid idea allow that brush to go over interior leather stitch.
How do you combat this?
Will blue painters/electrical tape over the leather/stitch area be a bad idea?

I don`t think it is that big of a deal.

Is it the large stitching like that found on the Audi Coupe that looks like a baseball glove`s stitching, or it is it just exposed fabric stitching found in some of the leathers used in higher-end cars??
I would think that you are correct in using a low-adhesive tape, but perhaps a more judicious (read that careful) use of the PC`s brush might be a better solution.
However, it`s ALOT easier said (by me) than done (by you).

Lonnie,
Yes we are talking about the stitch thats found in high end cars. I agree that judicial use of the PC Brush is a must, but lets be honest we all make mistakes. And I`d rather them not be on a Aston Martin :-)
My fear is that "low adhesive" tape may not be the best for the leather and pull of some paint/skin. Or damage the very threading I am to protect with it.
Any experience here guys?
