Ok so here is my first product review. A little back ground, three years ago when i bought my car i purchased some seat covers to put my kids car seat on so they would not screw up the new leather seats. However the pads i bought ended up staining the leather instead. In three years i have not been able to get the stains out. I have tried all of the OTC cleaners i could find and no dice. So enter OPC, i really had no doubt that OPC would do the trick from all that i read in here. The real question in my mind was a diluted 3:1 enough or did i need to use OPC straight.
What i used :
OPC diluted 3:1
OPC straight
Natural Tampico upholstery and carpet brush.
cotton hand towels
MF cloths
Lexol Leather conditioner

theses are the seats before
process:
i taped a seat down the middle. I then applied the OPC diluted on one side and scrubbed with the brush. Then i wiped down the area with a damp cloth.Then i went on to using the undiluted OPC, using the same brush same strokes same time. finally i wiped down with damp cloth.
After 50/50

Conclusion:
For this stain the diluted OPC 3:1 did not have enough cleaning power to take on this stain. However the Straight OPC took the stain out with out any problems.
I finished off the seat with the straight OPC and followed up with the Lexol Conditioner
I have now used the Diluted OPC as my main cleaner but sometime the OPC needs to be used straight.
Needless to say i am happy i have found my go to cleaner :dblthumb2:
Remember this is my first shot at a write up please be nice:xyxthumbs:
