What You’ll Need

Before you can learn how to care for leather car seats and begin giving your Land Rover its own deep cleaning, you’ll need to have a handful of useful cleaning products handy:

• For the main cleaning solvent, choose between Land Rover leather cleaner, saddle soap, mild leather soap, or a homemade solution that’s one part white vinegar and two parts linseed oil solution
• Microfiber towels
• A soft-bristled interior brush (NOT a stiff carpet brush!)

Cleaning’s As Easy as 1, 2, 3, 4

Lightly clean your leather seats once a month to keep your Land Rover Discovery interior looking good as new in Stamford. You may also need to do a more thorough cleaning at least three times a year, and you can follow these steps below:

1. Vacuum: Use an upholstery attachment to initially clean any dirt and crumbs left on the seats.
2. Clean: Using whichever cleaning solution you’ve chosen from the list above, spray the solvent on a microfiber cloth and wipe away any dirt you couldn’t get with the vacuum. If you have perforated leather seats, make sure the cloth is not too damp!
3. Deep Clean: Spray the cleaner onto a soft-bristled brush and gently scrub the upholstery to loosen excess dirt.
4. Wipe Dry: Get a new microfiber cloth to wipe of rest of the dirt and moisture from to leather.
