Water Damaged Leather Seats

[TDI_Cubed]

I did a search and could not find anything.



I discovered, a week too late, that my son and a friend failed to dry off , or change out of their wet clothes, and subsequesntly have damaged - very hard, discolored - the seats. :furious:



Is there a glimmer of hope of restoring the leather? :help:



Thanks for all suggests in advance.

Water, in almost all cases, will not damage automotive leather. That dryness you feel is the left over minerals in the water. Try a good leather cleaner and see if it helps, if not, try steam cleaning it.



I've accidentally left the top down during a showers in my car and come back to wet leather which I've simply dried. You should be good.

Thanks!



Do you recommend a specific leather cleaner? I have read about using Woolite, a specifla mixture or soap, alcohol and water, saddle soap, etc.
