If we thought about having any lotion on our body (including sunscreen) we are not able to go near the interior of the car.

Beware - sunscreen will also stain the leather.


Yes but it wipes off with a damp microfiber cloth.

This. But in the future just use a barely damp, clean microfiber cloth with no chemicals on it if you need to use anything at all. This is true for the plastic parts too. Don’t use Armorall ever.

If it's polished and the subtance didn't sink in, maybe try rubbing it with a clean soft cotton cloth until the grease or chemical transfers.

Maybe call the wipes mfr to ask for advice.


It's 2025! 1% chance this is useful.


If it's a known U.S. consumer brand, they still have 800 numbers.

Are you sure the seats are leather? My 100k car doesn't even come with leather seats.

What type of car is it? Most "leather" nowadays is synthetic.

Take it to a detailer or use leather soap.

You think you *ruined your car* because you got glycerin/silicone oil on your seat from a cleaning wipe?


JFC, I can’t even with some of you people.

I just got a brand new car. I used some of those interior leather wipes to wipe away some of the snow that’s gotten inside the seats and now there are residue marks all over the leather. I am so upset! I’ve tried using a wet microfiber cloth to clean them off but they won’t come off. Did I just ruin my new car?!?
