I just picked up a 06 S2000, and have a question about cleaning the perforation in the leather. Basically, it has something imbedded in the holes (perforation) in the leather, and I want to get it out.
I was thinking about using a pin, or a toothpick to push the gunk out. Any suggestions?

Feed back please

Never faced that problem so I'm coming from a position of no experience. It would seem that your best shot would be to first try a good leather cleaner, and this brush Vinyl & Leather Scrub Brush (http://www.autogeek.net/vilescbr.html) . I use that brush and it seems like it would be the perfect stiffness to get the gunk.

Did you try vacuuming it?

Leatherique or the Conelly? Hide Care products come to mind.

I have done it with a pin before. Just be very careful, not to make the holes bigger. You also can try a target brand magic eraser and a woolite/water mix

I did try that, it worked to an extent. I think I will need a vacuum going while I brush and pin the holes.

Ok, good to know its been done before, it'll be like performing surgery I imagine.
