i hope it's not from sun screen! that sh@t stains almost imediately and if left to dry in the sun will stain so that it will never come out. you have to wipe it off with a damp rag immediatley!

nah its on the butt part of the seat. the red leather on it is getting black. hopefully when i go get that "telfon shield" sprayed on, it'll be much easier to clean

Try Charmin "before" driving the car.

Troops from recent action in Iraq report that baby wipes are effective against Klingons!

cleaning your ass before sitting down in the car may also prevent future dirtying of the seats :D

I've tried the Megueir's Leather conditioner/cleaner and the Lexol version of the same.

LEXOL 0wnZ Meguier's... and I've always thought Mother's and Megueir's were the best car care products out there.

Try Lexol.

I haven't used Zanio but Lexol cleaner and protectant seem to do the job really well.

I've never used a leather conditioner before, but I'm curious as I've ordered leather. How do you determine one conditioner to be of a better quality than another? How soft it makes the leather? How long it lasts?

The way I judge the two cleaners is NEVER the initial suppleness nor the shine because they are about the same. The shine can vary depending on how hard you work to clean it to begin with but the longivity of the shine is my deciding factor. Now if you plan on cleaning leather every week or 2 I would say you could prolly go with either but I HATE leather cleaning week for my car...

Lexol makes it go for about a month or so for me but depending on how much abuse it takes from the environment (windows open all the time like me) and how many people sit in the car and how often (not very often for me). Hope this helps!

go down to your local Horse riding riding store where they sell boots and saddles etc. get some saddle soap. works great every time.
