Leatherique: A rough how-to, my thoughts, and a few pics.

Awesome! Love hearing of solid results.
It has been my experience that this stuff kicks ass.

I use Pristine Clean all year to clean/protect the leather, and do a round of Rejuvenator once per year.

A friend of mine made the comment about the 'shine' once.
He said the binding agent of the 'shine' is fabric softener!
Made complete sense to me. We have cut back on the softener and have actually noticed my seats not getting as shiny.

You should still use Leatherique on the back seats especially. Since they don't get used, no oils get on to them and eventually they'll turn into rocks, like my rears have. Doing this will keep them supple.

I found the spray bottle way too messy. For the rejuvenator, I would use a squirt bottle (or the one it comes in) and just pour it into your hands a little at a time, and spread that way. That stuff is supposed to go on heavy, and it's somewhat thick so it will stay where you spread it (to an extent). I liked the squirt bottle and sponge method for the cleaner.

Good luck, and agree with BP. The feel of the leather will improve dramatically, even if the look doesn't change much.

Sounds good, I plan to do both front and rear. I'll post some pictures and my thoughts on my application when I get to doing it soon.
