Viscura Premium Leather Cleaner: Deep Pore Cleaning for Matte Leather for Smooth Leather, Artificial Leather, Suede & Alcantara

Shiny leather in a car is not a sign of newness – it's a warning. A greasy shine is caused by skin oils, sweat, and accumulated dirt that clogs the pores. The Viscura Leather Cleaner not only removes these residues from the surface but restores the original, matte factory look without harming the material. Ideal for all types of smooth leather, artificial leather, and vinyl surfaces.

Technical Data & Facts

Why Viscura Premium Leather Cleaner

• Thorough & material-friendly: pH value 7 – no damage to color or topcoat

Application: 3 steps to a "new car" look

1. Apply: Dispense 2-3 pumps of foam onto a leather cleaning brush or applicator.

2. Work in: Massage the foam into the leather in circular motions and without strong pressure. Pay special attention to seams and creases where dirt accumulates.

3. Remove: Immediately wipe off the dirty foam with a clean, dry microfiber cloth. Do not let it dry!

💡 Pro tip: After cleaning, the pores are open. Always use a leather conditioner afterwards to protect the material from drying out again.

💡 Tip: For delicate surfaces like Alcantara, use our cleaning brush made of natural bristles for the best possible protection.

Why foam is safer than liquid

Many conventional cleaners are too liquid. The risk: moisture seeps through seams or perforations into the upholstery core. In the long term, this leads to mold or wavy leather. The Viscura leather cleaner uses High-Density Foam Technology. The foam stands on the surface, chemically binds the dirt, and only breaks down when wiped off with a microfiber cloth. This protects your interior from moisture damage.

Maximum cleaning power – gentle on color

Whether light leather seats in a vintage car or a black sports steering wheel: the formula dissolves denim dye transfers, grease films, and sunscreen residues, but does not attack the leather dye.

💡Our expert tip from reconditioning: Never spray the cleaner directly onto the leather, but always into a soft cleaning brush or sponge. This prevents "spray marks" and allows you to work the foam much more evenly into the grain. Work without pressure – let the chemistry do the work, not your biceps.

1. Long-term care made easy
2. Regular cleaning not only keeps your leather supple but also protects it long-term from aging, hardening, and color loss.
3. Our recommendation:
   Standard care: every 3 months
   For intensive use (e.g., in summer, for frequent drivers): every 4–6 weeks
   For heavily used areas like steering wheel, driver's seat, or light leather interiors: monthly
4. This keeps your leather permanently cared for, hygienically clean, and looking like new.

💡Tip: For optimal protection after cleaning, we recommend our VISCURA Leather Care – it reliably seals the surface against UV radiation, abrasion, and moisture loss.

FAQ - Wheel Cleaner

Can I use the cleaner on seats with ventilation (perforated leather)?

Yes, absolutely. Since it is a stable foam and not a liquid, the cleaner does not run into the holes of the perforation. This protects the electronics of the seat heating and ventilation from moisture. Important: Apply the foam to the brush, not directly to the seat.

Does the cleaner also remove denim dye transfers?

Yes, blue discolorations from jeans can usually be removed as long as the color is still on the surface. The Viscura cleaner lifts these pigments from the grain. If the color has already penetrated deep into the paint layer, only re-dyeing will help.

Does the cleaner make the leather slippery or shiny?

No. The goal is the original factory look. This means: the leather becomes dull, grippy, and matte. A greasy shine or a slippery surface are signs of grease – exactly what we remove.

Is the product suitable for vegan leather or artificial leather?

Yes, the formula is pH-skin neutral and designed to be gentle on materials. It works equally well on real leather, artificial leather (vinyl), and vegan leather, as it binds dirt to the surface.

Do I need to condition the leather after cleaning?

We strongly recommend it. The cleaner opens the pores to extract dirt. The leather is then "naked." Subsequent conditioning (leather balm or sealant) protects against new UV radiation and drying out.

Can I also use it to clean my leather sofa or office chairs?

Yes, the Viscura cleaner is ideal for leather couches, armchairs, office chairs, or even high-quality leather handbags and sneakers, provided they are made of smooth leather.

Where is the cleaner manufactured and shipped from?

Quality is important to us. The Viscura Leather Cleaner is 100% Made in Germany. Development, production, and bottling take place in Germany. Shipping also takes place directly from our German warehouse – without long waiting times or customs problems.
