Garage List
I have extended ivory white merino leather seats. With dye from blue jeans, no issues to remove. But with black dye from a sweater, it is impossible to remove it from the seats. I have tried Chemical brothers leather cleaner, Mr. Clean magic eraser, hot soat and water, Weiman leather cleaner and baking soda to no avail. I wonder if there is anything else on the market to remove the black dye? Maybe the next step is to dye the leather?
Please help.
thanks
KRIS

In the full Ivory white, is the black accent leather braided like it is in the Ivory/Blue trim?

Standard black piping and not braided like ivory/blue - see first image

Here's a sample swatch of ZAEI and close-up of my G05 with ivory white/night blue

Thank you Auricom once again. Wish you were in town, I'd buy you a beer 😃

PS... Wish they offered the Ivory with black instead of midnight blue. I'd be all over that. Blue seems like such a strange choice to me.
