The intensity of the color determines the visual characteristics and
appea rance. If the s urface of the leather has a typical natu ral look,
then the leather is a nappa leather that has been left in a relatively
natura l condition. This leather offers partic ularly good comfort and
breathes well. Fine veins, closed grains, insect b ites, sk in folds, and
subtle var iations in co lor remain visible. These character istics demon­
st rate that the mater ia l is nat ura l.
Natural nap pa leather is not covered by a color fin ish. It is therefore
mo re sensitive to soiling and we ar, which is some thi ng you need to
consider if children, animals or other factors mig ht prove to be partic­
ularly hard on the leather.
By contrast, leather types that a re cove red by a colo red fi nish layer
are more durab le . This has a positive effect on the leather's resistance
to wear and so ilin g in daily use. On the othe r hand, the typical charac­
teristics of natura l leather are barely or not apparent . However, this
does not mean that the leathe r itse lf is of inferio r quali ty.
Care and handling
Be cause of the exclusive na ture of t he types of leat her t ha t Audi uses
and their unique properties (such as sensitivity to oils, grease, soiling,
e tc. ), yo u will need to be somewhat c arefu l with these leat hers , a nd
a certain type of care is requ ired. For example, dark clothing mate­
r ia ls can dis co lor leather seats (especially if s uch cloth ing is damp and
was not dyed correctly). Dust and dirt particles in pores, folds, and
seams can have an ab rasive effect and can damage the leathe r
surface as well as weaken seams.
T he leather s ho ul d be cleaned regularly as needed . After having been
used for a relatively long time, your leather seats will a cquire a rich
aged f in ish. This is a characterist ic of natura l leather and a s ign of
t rue quality.
In order to maintain the value of this natural product over the life of
yo ur vehicle, you sho uld fo llow the recommendations below :
Safety first
0 Note
• To keep you r leat he r from b leach ing out, do not a llow it to be
exposed to bright s unlight for long periods of time . If yo u have to
leave t he veh icle parked o utside for long pe riods, cover the leather to
protect it from direct exposure to sunlight.
• Sharp objects on clot hing, such as z ippers, rivets or sha rp pieces
on belts can leave permanent scratches or scrape mar ks on the
surfa ce of the leathe r.
(I] Tips
• After ea ch t ime you clean the le athe r and at regular inte rvals, use
a leather preservat ive cream that contains UV-blockers and that
works into the leather . This cream will nourish and moistu rize the
leather, helping it to breathe and stay supp le. It also he lps to build up
a protect ive coa ting on the surface .
• Clean the leather every 2 -3 months, and clean any areas t hat get
so ile d.
• Remove fresh marks made by ballpoint pens, ink, lipstick, shoe
polish, etc. as soon as poss ible.
• Preserve the color of the leather as needed by using a special
c o lored leat he r car e cream to touch up a reas of uneven color. •
