Apply some sort of ceramic coat to prevent stain damage to your white interior.

Do exactly the same with my white seats... so far so good, will see in couple of months

I just get black interiors like the dark lord intended.

I switched to white jeans....


(I haven’t noticed black jeans doing that either so I wear them sometimes, but maybe 25% of the time, NO blue though!)

I have light tan seats on my X. Understand they are stain resistant from the factory, but still put on a coat of Nano twice a year. Does not take much time, much $ or change the look, but avoiding stains is better than scrubbing stains.

Nano?

I have the white interior without any treatment and no issues so far. Have two young kids, but don’t allow food in the car.

Ditto. Zero issues with white seats. My sister 2 kids and a Model S with white seats - no staining issues.

I guess I was paranoid. I did two applications of the Gyeon Leather Shield in Dec 2018, but I haven't reapplied since (have half a bottle left). Tesla SC left grease marks on my seats during my HW3 upgrade visit and they came right off using Gyeon Leather Cleaner.

does it matter if the Tesla seats are not real "leather"?

I applied the Gyeon leather shield about 1 year, 5 months ago. I haven't noticed any negative affects so far. Color of the seats looks the same and the feel of the seating surfaces feels the same also. Is that what you are asking ?

I think it is best practice to wipe down the seats (regardless of white, black, whatever) with a damp towel every time you wash your car. Even better if you can give them a quick vacuum with a brush attachment prior. I use Optimum Protectant Plus to protect the pleather...it provides good UV blocking and acts as a sacrificial layer, making stains and scuffs less likely. Its cheap relative to a nano-coating and seems to work great.

This is great advice. I give the interior a vacuum and wipe down the inside whenever I wash the car. When I got my NSX a few years ago, I don't think the owner ever cleaned his seats and the interior had lots and lots of cat hair.

What many people fail to realize is that the primary cause of wear/cracks/lines on leather (and pleather) surfaces is due to dirt accumulation that causes abrasion. Vacuum/wipe that dirt off regularly and you will have fantastic looking leather for many years to come. I anticipate vegan leather having the exact same characteristics.

you're still wearing clothes?!

I’m worried sweat might damage the seats...
