Every car interior fights a daily battle, body oils soaking into leather seats, dust settling into dashboard crevices, grime building on door trims and armrests. Without the right leather cleaner for car interiors, that contaminates compounds. Leather dries and cracks. Plastic fades and stains. The cabin that looked premium on day one starts to look its age far too quickly.
What your interior needs is a single, professional-grade plastic and leather cleaner that can handle both soft surfaces and hard ones, a true leather and plastic cleaner that's safe, effective, and trusted by detailing professionals across India.
That's exactly what Mafra Plastic & Leather Cleaner is.
Why Mafra?
Mafra has been at the heart of Made in Italy car care since 1965, engineering automotive chemistry in their Italian R&D labs for professional detailers, car wash chains, and OEM facilities worldwide. Their formulas are built to European quality standards and calibrated for the demands of automotive interior detailing at a professional level.
Detailing Essentials is the exclusive PAN India distributor for Mafra, which means when you buy from us, you get genuine Mafra chemistry, not grey market imports. The same Mafra leather cleaner India professionals reach for is now available directly, in sizes that work for both studios and home users.

How to Use
You'll need: Mafra Plastic & Leather Cleaner, a soft-bristle interior detailing brush or microfiber applicator, clean dry microfiber towels.
Step 1: Vacuum Remove all loose dust, crumbs, and debris before applying any car interior cleaning products. This prevents surface scratching during agitation.
Step 2: Apply Spray this interior detailing spray directly onto the surface or onto a microfiber applicator pad. For textured or heavily soiled leather, spray onto a soft-bristle brush for better penetration.
Step 3: Agitate Work the product into the surface using light circular or back-and-forth strokes. Allow 20–30 seconds dwell time on heavily contaminated areas for leather seat care and deep plastic cleaning.
Step 4: Wipe Clean Remove the product along with lifted dirt using a clean, dry microfiber towel. Fold the towel frequently to expose a clean face.
Step 5: Repeat if Needed For heavily soiled surfaces or neglected interiors, a second pass as a car detailing cleaner gives noticeably better results.
Step 6: Condition Always follow leather cleaning with a leather conditioner. Cleaning opens the pores, conditioning seals in moisture and protection.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. Can I use this as a rexine seat cleaner or on PU leather? Yes. Mafra Plastic & Leather Cleaner works on genuine leather, PU leather, rexine, and vinyl, the most common seat materials found in Indian cars. It is safe on both factory-fitted and aftermarket upholstery.
Q2. Is this a good dashboard cleaner for Indian cars? Yes. It is specifically safe for the hard plastic dashboards, door card plastics, and centre console trims used in Indian vehicles. It won't bleach dark plastics or leave white marks in India's hot climate.
Q3. Is this safe to use as a vinyl and leather cleaner on coated seats? The pH-Balanced formula is safe on coated leather and vinyl. After cleaning, always reapply a compatible leather protectant or ceramic top-coat to restore the coating's hydrophobic properties.
Q4. Do I need a separate product after using this car seat leather cleaner? Cleaning is the first step — follow it with a leather conditioner to restore moisture and prevent cracking over time. Mafra dedicated leather conditioner products are available on Detailing Essentials.
Q5. How often should I use a leather cleaner for car interiors? For daily-use vehicles, every 2–4 weeks is ideal. Regular leather seat care prevents deep contamination buildup and significantly extends the life of leather and plastic surfaces.
Q6. Where can I buy Mafra leather cleaner in India? Detailing Essentials is the exclusive PAN India online destination for genuine Mafra products. You are buying directly from the authorised distributor, no grey imports, no fakes.
