I spray the “eraser” (NOT directly on seats!) with Griot’s Garage Interior Cleaner and scrub small areas at a time. Before the area dries I follow by wiping with a microfiber towel dampened with more Interior Cleaner.

Please DO TEST a small area before going nuts. Occasionally the leather dye will react funny. It may have been “surface dyed” (reconditioned) at some point...you won’t realize it until too late if you start scrubbing!

If the rear seat leather is in need of rehydration Griots Leather Rejuvenator can help. It takes time and multiple applications. Learherique also makes great products.

I’m currently detailing a ‘54 Mercury Monterey. 42k Original mile car. Original vinyl interior, white/coral seats. Super dirty/grimy from sitting. Mr. Clean and Breeze Cleaner is getting it done...
The "Mr. Clean" eraser you can get from the supermarket? It's not some special automotive detail version?

The seats are in great shape, not cracked or dry or anything the color is good, they are just dirty. Simple cleaning brightened them up a little but I wanted to take them to the next level.
