FOrd King Ranch Leather

[Van185]

I recently got a 2005 Ford F150 King Ranch and the leather is slightly faded and there are several areas of stains on the leather. I have tired my usual lether cleaner and conditioner, which is Megs and have had no luck at all with the leather. The King Ranch leather appears different than most leather that I have worked on. Any suggestions for products to clean and then condition the seats. The leather is not to the point of cracking. The vehicle has set for several years and the leather is dry and dirty with areas of set in stains, but not cracked.

from another thread

If you go to your local ford dealership you can get dedicated cleaner and conditioner for them seats. You can probably find some online too. I haven`t cleaned a set in over 18 months but i can say i`ve been inside a few hundred of them things when i worded for ford. If you do go using something other than the ford stuff, try it out on the side or bottem cause i`ve seen them seats get ruined before.

The earlier King Ranches used an aniline leather.

My youngest nephew has one and he swears by a product called Bick 5. Amazon sells it but certainly there are other outlets.

He says:
"Simply put:
step 1) soak them down overnight as much as it takes to get them hydrated
step 2) switch to rubbing them in by hand using lighter applications of Bick 5 until evenly covered (dries quickly so you can drive)
step 3) buff them with a microfiber if you want them to look extra nice"

Even the Ford dealer was astounded at the condition of the seats and quizzed him on what he uses so they could carry it.
