I work in a warehouse that handles titanium dioxide. It's a white pigment that is the base for paint. My problem is No matter How clean I try to keep myself, this crap just won't stay off of my skin and clothes. I purposely got the cloth because of this since I ruined the black leather in my trade in.

I've tried several internal cleaners to No avail and about to go to commercial strength cleaners to see if that helps. The main issue is that it's really not noticeable until after a few days or under light. I usually do a quick whip down every day but the stuff I have must not be working.

Any help on a product would be forever appriciated.

See steering wheel and drivers seat. Tested some carpet cleaner on seat where it is darker. Hoping once it dries I can see a difference.

I was just googling to help you out and found this on a BMW forum.

This happened to me...with Zinc Oxide...which is the hardest to get out.

The S/A at my BMW dealership gave me a can of Vinyl/Leather cleaner with a "touch of mink oil" to take home. It's what they use on all dealership cars and it works great. Before I left, he applied it to my seats and it buffed right out w/zero elbow grease.

I'll look into that. I can live with the cloth as III think I can clean it easily after cleaning the floor mat successfully. I'm more concerned with everything else.

Best of luck!

I will recommend you use something like this for the rest of your interior to help protect it going forward.

Maybe their sealant will work once it's cleaned as well. Thanks!

No idea on the fix, but what about prevention going forward? Can you keep work clothes and street clothes separated in a locker or something?

 

[boostedCO]

I can and do. I just don't think I have anything on me as it's a very fine powder.
