Will the plastic on the underside of the cover melt to leather seats?

My car doesn't have leather seats, but I have two of these covers in my vehicle. They have sat in the hot Texas summer heat for three years and haven't been warped, sticky, or melted at all. I can't imagine that they would behave any differently against leather. The entire cover is rubber, there's no plastic coating on the underside.

I have had this on my black leather seats (so they get extra hot) for over a year with no problems at all. It is almost a silicone type rubber material similar to the all weather floor mats you can get.

I doubt the material itself would melt, but it will leave behind a lot of the adhesive if you try to remove it.I used it in certain spots of the interior of my new car on a roadtrip with my dog. it was at most 70 degrees in the car the whole time and after 3 days it left a fair amount of adhesive anywhere that had been warmed more than ambient temp (like the leather armrest under my elbow and seat the dog was on)

The material is not slick and you will not slip on the seat cover. The back side of the seat cover has a rubber material that will not slip on the seats.

Hi. No sure. But I do know I don't want to put the cover on if the muffler is still hot. I think the silver part is probably reinforcement so the muffler doesn't melt the material.? Guessing. Great cover for the price.

It won't melt, it will fry... After the plastic expands and contracts because of the cold/heat, it looses it's integrity and the picture will dry up in flakes =[

I doubt it's going to stay really secure on leather seats. My dog moved it on my cloth seats until I tucked the sides in to prevent it from moving. If I roll all 4 windows down the pad blows around because there isn't any way to constrain in it to the horizontal/vertical crevice of the seat where the buckles are.

No. Not at all. I had mine outside in an average if 70 degree heat and the cover rotted right off my car. I contacted the company and although it says it's fine in mild weather they don't recommend it for outside. Apparently this happens a lot as the customer service person knew exactly what I was talking about. Terrible product.

I doubt it. The fabric seat cover is easily removed and washed (about 100 times for me so far). I don't think fire retardants would stand up to that.

Hi Diesel - We would definitely recommend using Leather Afterlife after your seats have been resprayed. THANKS! The Leather Afterlife Team at Intervine

Not at all. Beware though, this seat cover is not of the steadiest construction. My seat covers tore easily within 6 months where the back meets the seat.

I've used this for about 2 months and don't have any damage to leather. We are using a toddler car seat if that matters.

I dont know if will protect but it will soften as long as it is finished leather

Honestly, it does get pretty hot, because it is fully made of metal. I put a black driving glove or leather glove over top of it when I'm out of the car. Easy fix. It's not untouchable, and cools down quickly, but I still prefer to have it covered.

Yes! It's a great seat cover. It takes time to put on but well worth protecting the leather or cloth seat!!

I have had no problems with the cover. It is not a super thin plastic sheet, it is very sturdy. I live were it rains a lot and I have not had any issues with it leaking or causing any rust to the pit.

It would melt the plastic if it is thin or cheap. This is a hot plate that heats to 200 degrees.

Well I have vinyl flooring with a hump between the seats. It'll probably slide around with my vinyl flooring huh
