According to the material, car seat covers can be divided into leather, imitation leather and cloth seat covers, but now car seats are basically leather or imitation leather, so which of the two is better? What are their advantages? Disadvantages? Let’s understand together!
Advantages and disadvantages of leather seats
The so-called car leather is the original leather peeled from the animal, and then processed by the leather factory. Usually cowhide, sheepskin and pigskin are the main raw materials for making leather.
advantage:
(1) There are grades
The combination of leather and interior can show your personality and class. So there will be leather and ordinary fabric seats to distinguish its grade. So at present, many people still deliberately choose leather seats when buying a car, because they feel that leather seats are of high quality.
(2) Easy
Generally speaking, real leather can accompany the car for life in the seat, because the car leather is different from the general sofa leather, it is processed through multiple layers of processes, such as high temperature treatment. Even if you use a baking strength above 200 degrees to grill, it will shrink and deform slightly, but the sofa leather will instantly change color and bubbles.
(3) Dirt resistant
Compared with ordinary fabrics and cotton, leather is not easy to stain. After a long time, there is no seat, and it is only stained with dust. Instead, using a cleaning agent for a wiper can immediately remove the stains and give the seat a new look. When cleaning car seats, it is also very particular about the choice of cleaning agent, otherwise it will be self-defeating if you are not careful. Its natural enemies are sharp objects and acid-base liquids.
shortcoming:
(1) Surface is vulnerable
Sharp objects are the nemesis of leather. Once they encounter knives, scissors, needles, etc., marks will be left on the leather. It is the nemesis of leather, so leather seats need to be taken care of.
(2) Sit feeling too slippery. The owner may use a seat belt or increase the cushion method to deal with this problem. In fact, general manufacturers have dealt with this problem by wrinkling the leather surface to increase the coefficient of friction.
