I will be testing this product on seats, that upon first glance would appear to need some diluted mix of an all-purpose cleaner to remove much of the soiling.<\/p>\n<p>The seats I am working on are perforated leather. \u00a0The seats have not been cleaned in over two years. \u00a0The vehicle is driven daily by a driver who is very physically active. \u00a0This leather cleaner was up for quite a challenge.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/farm5.staticflickr.com\/4623\/39255525274_bedd50236c_b.jpg\" alt=\"Dirty Seats pic 1\" \/><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/farm5.staticflickr.com\/4722\/39934160272_ebfe679e96_b.jpg\" alt=\"Dirty Seats pic 2\" \/><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/farm5.staticflickr.com\/4764\/26093344918_b6a63bfb06_b.jpg\" alt=\"Dirty Seats pic 3\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I would work in sections that would expand by a range from dimensions of my hand to that of your standard size notebook paper (8 1\/2 x 11).<\/p>\n<p>I started with 4 to 7 sprays in the area, let it dwell for 20 to 40 seconds, scrub for about 20 to 40 seconds, then wipe off with a microfiber towel. When I used the brush to scrub the product, it was straight line motions back and forth and then side to side.\u00a0 The pressure applied with the brush was light to medium.\u00a0 Medium pressure for me would be applying downward pressure while consciously trying not to make a muscle.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/farm5.staticflickr.com\/4624\/39934156912_135f13ec5d_b.jpg\" alt=\"Leather Brush\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I immediately was very impressed with the cleaning action of this product.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/farm5.staticflickr.com\/4651\/28186365929_e9d51604d5_b.jpg\" alt=\"Cleaning Process\" \/><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/farm5.staticflickr.com\/4627\/26093412168_d0fffdaf97_b.jpg\" alt=\"1st Pass\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Between 70 to 95 percent of the soiling had been removed via the first pass.\u00a0 You can see above the significant difference above between the spot I was working on and what had yet to be touched.\u00a0 It took usually two passes at most to restore a section to good condition.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/farm5.staticflickr.com\/4613\/26093415428_3ca7b4a47a_b.jpg\" alt=\"Section Cleaned\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Things of Note<\/h2>\n<p>With good products, a little often goes a long way.\u00a0 The same can be said here.\u00a0 As I continued working I dialed my technique down to consistently spraying 4 times max and with a working area expanded to 8 1\/2 by 11.\u00a0 I recommend the same approach for even highly soiled seats.<\/p>\n<p>I also rinsed off my brush at about the halfway mark of the second seat.\u00a0 I noticed the brush was taking in more of the dirt than the microfiber towel.\u00a0 The scrubbing action was noticeably better immediately after rinsing off the brush.\u00a0 Depending on the level of soiling, a periodic rinse or new brush may be something you would want to consider.<\/p>\n<p>Below are the results.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone \" src=\"https:\/\/farm5.staticflickr.com\/4740\/39255638224_f239cfb9b1_b.jpg\" alt=\"Leather Cleaned\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone \" src=\"https:\/\/farm5.staticflickr.com\/4760\/28186403219_981905ac6e_b.jpg\" alt=\"Leather Cleaned 2nd pic\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Product Review:  Gyeon Leather Cleaner<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":43,"featured_media":23891,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[52,53,18],"tags":[1817,238,117],"class_list":{"0":"post-22785","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-interior-care","8":"category-leather-care","9":"category-product-reviews","10":"tag-gyeon","11":"tag-leather-cleaner","12":"tag-product-review"},"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/www.detailedimage.com\/Ask-a-Pro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/39067702765_0e80941878_b.jpg","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p1kPO7-5Vv","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.detailedimage.com\/Ask-a-Pro\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/22785","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.detailedimage.com\/Ask-a-Pro\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.detailedimage.com\/Ask-a-Pro\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.detailedimage.com\/Ask-a-Pro\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/43"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.detailedimage.com\/Ask-a-Pro\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=22785"}],"version-history":[{"count":24,"href":"https:\/\/www.detailedimage.com\/Ask-a-Pro\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/22785\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":23892,"href":"https:\/\/www.detailedimage.com\/Ask-a-Pro\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/22785\/revisions\/23892"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.detailedimage.com\/Ask-a-Pro\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/23891"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.detailedimage.com\/Ask-a-Pro\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=22785"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.detailedimage.com\/Ask-a-Pro\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=22785"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.detailedimage.com\/Ask-a-Pro\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=22785"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
