How to keep my Silvertone Interior clean...

Fecklar · 03-02-2020, 03:41 PM

Any advice on the best way to clean. Just got my 1st M5 on Friday (2020 Competition).

I've had silverstone interior on my f90 for about 8 months now. No issues really with dirt showing up, I just take a microfiber cloth and some water and wipe it once in a while. I've had no dye transfer issues either.

I've heard griots interior cleaner works well.

thank you for the advice. I was worried it was going to be a nightmare to keep clean.

Don't wear blue jeans in the rain, then get in your car.

Toothbrush and soap for the stitching

I have Smoke Interior which is close to Silverstone.

I usually just drive naked with baby wipes.

I had ceramic pro textile applied to my car's interior. I have no problem keeping the silver stone leather clean. I just spray a little all purpose cleaner and wipe it down quickly with a microfiber every once in a while.

Just get Color Lock products, they are great.

I’ve had silverstone in my last three cars and same thing, no issues. Just wipe down a few times a year. Also can confirm Griots leather cleaner/conditioner works great. Removes blue jean dye easily from the driver’s seat in my wife’s car.

I kept my F10 platinum full leather pristine by not driving anyone, I have the car for almost 4 years now and my wife only been in the car once.

Hopefully you don't eat what you're listening to, in the car.

I swear by the Swissvax leather care products. The cleaner and leather milk both dry to a matte finish rather than a greasy, wet-look finish.

Keep the seats conditioned so that the leather does not dry out and crack over time.

Also, some of the companies that produce car paint coatings also offer leather coatings. I plan to discuss this with my detailer when he picks up my car in a couple of weeks. He uses Modesta brand coatings, and I think they do a leather protection product. I'll post more details when I know more.

Same here, it is not too hard to keep clean, so far over the last 9 months of owning the car, i cleaned the interior about 3 times total, and it still looks brand new! I thought it would be WAY harder to keep clean.
