Dash materials - SL400

[rorywquin]

Any idea of what the modern "leather" leather dash is made of - mine has very nice stitching etc and looks & feels like leather but I'm not sure.

I'm about do do a full spring clean and was wondering if I should be using leather care or something else on the "leather" part of the dash.

Cheers

I never touch the dash ‘leather’ except with a slightly damp microfibre cloth, nothing else...
If it did get a bit grimy I’d maybe use a very very very weak solution on a damp microfibre first then do above....

Leather is coated these days so it is no longer necessary to use leather cleaners or conditioners. I would do as said above and just use water.

The stitched dash leather in mine is Artico - may be a bit posher on the SL!

Leather on the 230...

Thanks all - looking at the spec, I think it is leather but not sure. Will stick to a quick wipe down for now!
