Gentle Agitation
Clean leather properly, without the risk
Most interior damage happens when the wrong tool meets the wrong surface. The horsehair fibres on this brush are chosen specifically because they carry enough stiffness to break loose bonded grime in leather grain and textile weave, without leaving scratches or distorting the nap.
Why It Works
The right tool for interior agitation
Four reasons this brush earns its place in your interior kit.
-
Horsehair Fibres
Natural bristles agitate leather grain and textile weave without scratching or marking the surface.
-
Compact Dimensions
14cm x 5cm body fits precisely into bolsters, seams and door-card edges that larger brushes miss.
-
Ergonomic Grip
Shaped for controlled pressure so you can scrub consistently without straining your wrist or fingers.
-
Multi-Surface Use
Effective on leather, alcantara, woven fabric and carpet edges in a single tool.

Built for Tight Spaces
Reaches where bigger brushes never do

Questions
Frequently asked
What surfaces can I use this brush on?
It is suited to leather seats and door cards, fabric and alcantara upholstery, woven headliners, carpet edges and textile trim panels. The horsehair fibres are gentle enough for smooth leather grain and soft enough not to pill fabric.
Which cleaning products pair well with this brush?
Any pH-neutral leather cleaner or interior textile spray works well. Spray or apply a small amount of product directly onto the surface or onto the brush bristles, then agitate in short, overlapping strokes. Avoid using it with harsh solvent-based cleaners that could damage the horsehair fibres over time.
Is it safe on alcantara and synthetic suede?
Yes. The natural horsehair fibres are fine enough to agitate product into alcantara without crushing the nap. Use light, circular strokes and a dedicated alcantara cleaner, then lift the nap with a soft microfibre after wiping.
How do I clean the brush after use?
Rinse the bristles under warm water after each use to flush out lifted dirt and cleaner residue. Gently reshape the fibres and leave the brush bristle-side down or on its side to air-dry. Avoid soaking the wooden or plastic body for extended periods.
Can I use this brush on car carpet?
Yes, it is effective on carpet edges and floor-mat fabric, especially around seams and bolster bases where a larger brush cannot reach. For heavily soiled carpet pile, a stiffer nylon detailing brush may cut through dried mud faster, but the horsehair brush is a good follow-up for the finer agitation pass.
Will the horsehair fibres scratch or mark leather?
Natural horsehair is a traditional, widely trusted material for leather care precisely because it cleans without scoring the surface. Used with an appropriate leather cleaner and reasonable pressure, it will not scratch or scuff standard automotive leather, including semi-aniline and pigmented hides.
What size is the brush and why does it matter?
The brush measures 14cm x 5cm, making it compact enough to work inside seat bolsters, along door-card edges and in the tight radius between the seat base and backrest - areas where a full-size upholstery brush simply does not fit properly.
Can I use this brush with a leather conditioner as well?
The brush is designed for the cleaning step. After agitating the cleaner and wiping the surface clean, apply your leather conditioner separately with a soft applicator or microfibre cloth. Using the brush to work in conditioner is not harmful, but the bristles can soak up product quickly and lead to uneven application.
