I sat in my orange cover-up on my leather car seats after a swim one day. Rode home in my in my wet suit only to find that the orange had bled/transferred onto the leather. How can this be removed and the leather restored to its original cream color?

Hi Terry, this article offers a couple of ideas that may assist you with your leather stain. Maybe try just a small area first to insure you don't damage the leather even mroe. https://www.diynetwork.com/how-to/maintenance-and-repair/cleaning/how-to-clean-white-leather
Don't feel bad, we have all done this at one time or another. Best way is to get some leather cleaner and conditioner from any auto supply. Clean first then rinse then condition.
I have light gray leather seats in my Honda CRV and always have towels handy just for this purpose.

Hi Terry, you can try these solutions
For surface stains, nothing beats toothpaste on either leather or vinyl surfaces. Apply a small dab on the stain, use an old toothbrush to gently rub the toothpaste into the area until the stain is removed. When finished, remove excess with a damp towel and allow to dry.

If you have never used "Norwex" cloths you might consider that. They get about anything out! They also have products that work great. Of course they aren't "free".......
