black spots on leahter seats

[wilson]

I have black spots on my seats, I would like to remove them without harming the leather. I have a 1984 Eldo Convt. The Eldo is covered through out the winter and kept outside (no garage). I start it and run the heater on high while driving it for about 10 miles during the winter months, in the summer should I leave the Caddy uncover? All adviced is needed.

It sounds like your're getting mold / mildew spots from moisture.  Covering a car
and keeping it outsude presents a host of problems, among those are holding moisture
in the car with the windows up and the cover on -- theis leaves the mold / mildew
gremlins a good chance to do their work.

A good cleaner and a leather restorer is what you need.  Try the Lexol brand products.
they are among the best I found.  Good luck,
Mike

 'Crack' the windows a little while it is covered/uncovered. This will help even out the temps and reduce the amount of time condensation is in the car. Most of these cars have a good roof 'lip' or rain gutter that just opening it slightly will not allow rain in (especially when covered).
