    Re: Rub marks on seat from belt loop - GS460

    Are you sure you didn`t sit on a Twinkie or Ho Ho or perhaps lean against a freshly painted fence?
    I still say that will clean up. Wish you were located near me

    Any chance this rub mark lines up with your belt mounted cell phone case

    Re: Rub marks on seat from belt loop - GS460

    Sorry for the late reply, everyone. I just did some Lexol cleaner/conditioner, and that seemed to help a little bit, but still there

    Trouble - I actually checked my pants and shirt to see if that was the case, but didn`t see anything at all.

    JSFM35X - I don`t have a cell phone case, so I don`t think that`s the case (pun not intended) here. :/

    TRD.......I zoomed in on the bottom right picture (where the white glob is the thickest) in your picture and it does appear to me something is on top of the leather.

    Get a magnifying glass and see if you can see yourself. Although I could be wrong.

    Now that the lexol conditioner has had a chance to soften what it is, try giving it another scrub! That is unless you can clearly see the leather has really been worn .

    Maybe I can take a closer look with a magnifying glass or something. Here`s a closer pic, if it helps!

    Also, I see what you`re talking about because the holes appear to be clogged. hmm...

    Stick a toothpick in one of the holes and see if you can pull something out.

    Afterwards, pick your teeth with it and see if you find a hint of Ho Ho juice or Latex Paint




    IMO Lexol makes a great conditioner, but a terrible cleaner

    I think of this thread everyday. Sure will be glad when we find closure. I think it`s driving me crazier than you

    Re: Rub marks on seat from belt loop - GS460

    I`m definitely going to get a magnifying glass and bring the car out into the light of day this weekend. I`ll update you all on what I find. Say it is paint or some sort of crap... Besides harsh cleaners, what would be the best way to get it off of there? Just don`t wanna screw the leather up to get this stuff off :/

    Get a damp cotton wash cloth (maybe with a touch of dawn). Get the area wet and try picking at it with your fingernail. If that doesn`t work try spaying APC on the same damp cloth and go at it again

    If you do get white stuff under your nail then that will tell you it can be removed



    Steam would be another option if available

    Re: Rub marks on seat from belt loop - GS460

    Sorry for not getting around to this, everybody! I had a bunch of unexpected things come up last weekend, so I`m gonna do my best to fit it in THIS weekend Taking the car into the stealership on Saturday to get the B-pillar trim piece replaced that the tint shop managed to ding multiple times Once I get it back from that, I`ll do my best to hit the seats on Sunday! Thanks for your patience!
