Default Looking a little shabby --- help!
I have black leather sport seats in my vette and the embroidered "Corvette", which is silver on the seat back is looking a little shabby.

Anyone have a good way to clean it? I thought it might be best to ask before I screw it up trying to clean it.

Thanks all

clean it with a good leather cleaner (any) .. and then go over it with a silver ink pen.

it'll look like new.

And if the above tip doesn't work, you might try the Car Care Discussion forum.
