Where can I get a decent LEATHER cleaning brush OTC?

Hey AGO,

Quick question for you, I've finally gotten all I need to work on leather seats. I've got a dedicated cleaning solution, and a few conditioners (pinnacle spray, and a lotion based conditioner)

I just want to know where I can go OTC to get a good quality leather scrub brush for aggitating the cleaning solution? I've tried working the solution in with some older microfiber, but I don't think it was as effective, I was scared of it absorbing more cleaning solution than it used.

So, straight to the point, where do I get the brush?

I always use a micro fiber towel to wash my leather.

I use MF for the most part, but a soft bristle brush is good to have around, you may be able to find a smaller wheel brush at a pepboys like store, or go to the shoe polish section of a target or walgreens, Kiwi makes a small leather brush for shoes that is about the same size as a fingernail brush 3/4 inch by 2.5?

good luck

How about a horsehair brush like the ones you use to apply shoe polish? The small round ones, not the big brick type ones.

Horsehair brushes soften too much to be of any real use.
We use IKEA dish brushes and they work perfectly.

I use the horsehair brush you get in the shoe polishing kit. Works really good.

jesse .... I love those b..bies. Back on track however, most brushes are sold at parts stores or car specialty stores.

Re: Where can I get a decent LEATHER cleaning brush OTC?

This one is ten times better than any that I've found OTC. Vinyl & Leather Scrub Brush . A natural bristle fingernail brush from Bed, Bath, & Beyond was in distant second. For really neglected leather the PC brushes are awesome.
