Guys, i need some advice from all the leather artisan sifu. I was wondering, when a leather have stain, how would we clean it?

Take a car leather seat for example, since that we sit on it for long, the colour of our pants somehow get absorb into the leather causing the leather to darken, some become black. I had used tones of leather care product which i can bought from the car store but it all seems useless.

Is it i used the wrong product or should i actually buy the leather care stuff from a leather brand instead of a car brand?

Some actually recommended obenauf cleaning spray which i am not sure whether it is good or not. Anyone can help me on this one?

@rickysim84

you would have to state what colour of leather seats thats in your car. also, its very important to note what type of leather that wraps round those seats.
these 2 factors are very important in determining the rate/susceptibility to stains.

let's say the leather is of a very light shade of skin tone (in simplistic terms), it would be just like a lady with a cream coloured brand bag. what i mean by that is, just like the bag, it would be very easily stained or show signs of aging and wearing (means obvious darkening through time and stains). it can be treated, but stains and darkening (depends on how 'bad' they are) are not 100% removable. perhaps, those leather cleaning products can only 'lighten' the stains and darkening. But, you would not get the a 'new' leather seat look.

then again, i might be wrong, there might a specialized treatment that can eliminate all stains. but this is what i found out through usage and crafting of leather products.

what do you guys use to condition your leather goods, especially calf leather ones?

Have got a calf leather bag, and i've been recommended dubbin a few times - i'm not sure if that's the best option.
