asciugare con pelle (di daino)
Explanation:
Sto tirando a indovinare, ma se si tratta di lavare e acqiugare una macchina, allora "leather" potrebbe proprio riferirsi alla pelle di daino che si usa comunemente per asciugare la carrozzeria delle automobili.

lather


Explanation:
Credo si tratti di "lather" (non "leather") cioè "schiuma".
In questo contesto "lather off" potrebbe significare:
"sciacquare/risciacquare la carrozzeria...".
E' la prima cosa che mi viene in mente. Spero sia utile.
Buon lavoro!
