cleaning stitching

[markh1]

Does anyone have any tips for cleaning the stitching on the leather? I have yellow stitching on purple leather and want to bring some of the brightness back to the yellow.

Cheers,
Mark

I used this on my seats a few months back and it pulled all the dirt out of the stitching at the same time

That looks ideal, thanks Dave! They are out of stock at the moment but will get one ordered.

A handy 'side-effect' of liquid leather is it brings up the stitching a treat.

I got mine off eBay.

you can get them (the same type of foam) from loads of places - Wilkinsons do a version. To do a large area you will need several since they wear out quickly. And they are very abrasive so be careful.

I am worried about it being abrasive as I don't want to rough up the stitching.
