I accidentally got super glue on my driver's side leather seat (a couple of drops on the perforated seat part) and I tried to hurry and wipe it down with blue paper towels soaked in water. Now, I have 2 vague blue spots on the seat where the fibers from the towel stuck onto the glue as it finished drying I guess. Any ideas on how I would go about getting this out? Thanks in advance.

prob out of luck...
locktite makes a superglue remover, but i would think it might damage your leather.
if you try it, be sure to first try it on an area that you dont easily see so you can find out what it might do to the leather.
if all else fails, you might have to replace that panel.

you should search the brand glue you used and see if they have a solvent.
most do some don't.
Rubbing Alcohol might work...if not a watered down accetone for nail polish remover might.
Last you could use a very fine grit sand paper and wet-sand the immediate area.
Probably a good idea to mask off the un-damaged area and TAKE IT SLOW!!!
Try not to force it off for it might deform your leather...

Don't use alcohol, you can only make it worse.
If you want, come and stop by our shop (in NJ) and I can fix it for you no problem, will look like new. We do this kind of stuff all the time...being a leather service company and all, hehe.
PM me if you want more info, I can definitely help you.

Most finishes are water based and so any alcohol can begin to cut through them, even if you go over it and you see no color come off, you probably just stripped off the clear protective top coat and are now sitting on the color coat, which can get tacky very quickly and will eventually wear through as it does not have the durability found in the topcoat.

So I stopped by Sean's (2002S2K) shop (Leather Institute) today and I must say he did a great job on my driver's leather seat cover. If I were to ask someone to look at my seat cover now and to tell me if there is anything wrong with it, they couldn't. All of the glue got out and Sean even reconditioned the seat cover for me. All I can say is, Sean knows what he's doing and if anyone has any leather issues or concerns, I would recommend him without reservations.
