Stained Leather...help please

Hey extended F150 family...

I have an 04 F150 SC Lariet...Tan leather seats. My blue jeans have stained the lower part of the seat....are there any cures for removing that or do I have to have them dyed?

Thanks much

RollingRock..

My sister has leather in her house and someone got a marker stain on it and she used the invisible marker and you cant see it any more. Give that a try it might work for you. Good luck.

Just a "invisible marker"? Dumb question, but where do I find those?

Actually it is Mr. clean magic eraser and I guess it works great and you can get it at wal-mart or any grocery store.

Oh that is a good point....and idea...thanks much.

Someone told me to use hair-spray (it removes ink from pens etc) but makes me a tad bit nervous on leather. Any ideas on using Goof-off on leather? Says it is safe for vinyl but no mention of leather?

Thanks for the help.

I heard of the hair-spray but never tried it as far as goof off I never heard of it. I know the magic eraser works great.

i cannot get the blue stain out of the leather...going to have it dyed I guess and by some covers to protect them. Man that pisses me off too. I had a Merc Mountaineer and it had tan leather and that never happend to them.

Any thoughts on having the dealer replace them under warranty?

Have you talked to any of your local detail centers about getting the stain out?I would talk to someone that details cars for a living and see what they say.
As far as getting tem covered under warrenty give it a try whats the worst they can say...NO. It's worth a shot.
