Bigtrx34 321 #1 Posted April 15, 2020 The seat on my 520H is original and WELL used. But is in overall good shape. I did not want to buy a new one because well they are crazy expensive. Here is my steps for cleaning hope it can help someone out, I learned the process from a professional car detailer and have used it on my trucks for years. Note my tractor seat has some pine tree sap the I am still working out as I don't want to do anything to harsh on a 26 year old seat. 1. Remove loose dust and dirt with compressed air or dry brush. 2. Spray seat with mild detergent and work into the seat with gloved hands. 3. Remove detergent and dry seat off. 4. Liberally apply 3 in one leather care product to the seat and work into the seat with your hands. If you have highly soiled areas use a nylon brush to work those areas. 5. With a dry paper towel (shop rag) wipe the seat dry. Fold the paper towel over or use multiple towels for this step as the dirt and "butt" oils rise to the surface and you don't want to work them back into the seat. 6. Repeat step 4 and 5 until you are satisfied with the results. This is my seat after 2 applications, still needs a little work. 5 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Where did you get it?0 Advanced auto parts but most auto parts stores have it, but with any leather or "pleather" its more about how you work it into the fabric. Most plastic leather is painted so you have to be very careful how hard you work it. I like to hand work the 3 in 1 with a bare hand, as an added bonus your significant other will like your baby soft hands when your done. By slowly working the product you lift more of the body oils and dirt out of the material. Key thing is to do it over and over. After 26 years mine has alot of BS build up as you can see in the pictures next. The areas that the ridges and grain have been worked about 4 times the sides are almost smooth and are not "clean" yet. Hope it helps yah. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
