I'm about to give my leather interior a good facelift with Leatherique. Problem is it's cold in NC - around 60 degrees. Instead of parking in the sun after treatment would it be more effective to blast the heat in the car?

I think it would be hard to keep the heat up high enough and long enough to be effective with just the heater. I don't know if letting your car sit at idle for a long period is a good idea for potential cooling system and engine wear issues, as well the carbon monoxide risk.
If it were me, I'd wait for a hot day. I am not a fan of parking in direct sunlight anytime, but definitely park somewhere where the interior will get really warm for a few hours when you do this.
Yea I didn't think the heat would be a good solution. Hopefully we'll get one more hot day before winter really sets in - I don't want to have to wait 6 months to clean the interior.
Park it in the sun for a few hours. Then take it off tomorrow morning.
My seats are in need of some TLC..is the leatherique a good way to get some flexibility and softness back into the leather?

Plastic trash bags and a hairdryer. Per Leatherique's own site.
Garbage bags and hair dryer as said above.. also if your leather is very dirty you might want to get a good brush to scrub it.. When I did my interior the front seats and arm rest were so dirty I needed to use a brush. Unfortunately I only had an old toothbrush so it took forever.

Word to the wise: don't use garbage bags that have any printing on them. Like the lot number or whatever a garbage bag would have on it. Don't ask me why I know either....
