Protect X

I have this in my car and just looking for a little clarification.

I know it stops spills and stains on leather but is also supposed to stop dye transfer?

I ask as I have had my car for 2 weeks and it has not been used daily but my Adelaide Grey leather is showing signs of dye transfer from my jeans.

I have looked online but cannot find anything about dye transfer.

Cheers Steven.

The dye is coming from your jeans no coating on the receiving substrate can stop the movement of the dye from your jeans, but it may well be just sat on top of the protect X making it easier to remove.

Are they new jeans? We had a cream sofa once (never again) and we always had to wash new jeans twice before going near sofa!

thanks for the replies.

The jeans are about 18 months old and been washed a lot as they are my work jeans.

I will try a leather wipe tomorrow

Think we used to clean the sofa once a month, and kept a layer of protection 'cream' on there so it made it easier to clean any dye transer off
