1969 Has Mold on Leather seats

[Ralph S.]

The car has been sitting in the garage for 10 years without a problem until this summer. What should i clean the mold spots of with that won't hurt the leather and keep it from coming back. They are the original seat covers.

Any mild cleaner should work to remove the mold. Nothing will keep it from coming back other than a conditioned storage area.

Ralph, down here in "Moldland" (AKA Florida), we use a product called Clorox Clean-Up. It does the job very well. Caution: as they say, try it on an inconspicuous area first as it does contain bleach. Have you tried running a dehumidifier during the summer or perhaps using those 5 lb. bags of moisture absorbant inside the car?
