Leather Cleaner for White interior

[BMWClove]

What Leather cleaner does everyone recommend? I ordered a G05 with Ivory White Extended Merino leather interior and would like some recommendations on a safe and good cleaner.

THANK YOU!!!

I have the ivory nappa in my 15 and I have always used a damp microfiber and super clean. I find the interior pretty easy to keep clean (no kids) and as long as I wipe of things as they happen it has stayed nice and clean. Just crossed 150K in it this weekend........

Wipe them down periodically with an interior cleaner, I use P+S Interior Express because it's affordable and works great. For white, I'd be wiping down every week. Colourlock Mild Cleaner if you notice the normal interior cleaner not keeping up with the dirt.

If the Super Clean you are using is that purple stuff then the active ingredient
is Sodium Hydroxide or what is commonly called Lye.

I agree it is a great cleaner but Lye is a VERY aggressive cleaner and will strip the oils out of the leather.

thank you for the feedback

All the advice above is good. If you are talking about a 2022 car as in your signature, my advice is simply to start small then go bigger as needed. Meaning use the mildest cleaner you can and see if it does what you want. Then get a little more aggressive and so on as needed. Don't jump into anything aggressive on the first try.

Might also need to blend a bit, or do a panel (the whole bottom of the seat for example not just a spot), so it doesn't look like you did anything at all.

Follow up with some sort of conditioner. Don't be afraid to drive with a towel or sheet over a seat for a day or two to protect your clothes, until it's absorbed in.

For weekly cleaning (ivory) I use this.

I have the Ivory White leather in my Z4. The BMW foam leather cleaner works really well.

I have ivory now and before that had opal white and there's only one answer for German leather: Colourlock mild cleaner w/ their brush, then sealant
