Leatherique has some good press. Haven't tried it myself.

Default Also some bad press. I know 2 guys who had their leather interiors destroyed by Leatherique

Both vintage Mercedes owners and the second guy was the buyer of the car from me, so I knew what condition the leather was in. In fact, he emailed me to say that he'd just started treating the leather and was looking forward to the results. I wrote back and told him to get the stuff off his interior asap......it was too late. The leather looked like someone had taken heat gun to it.

He, myself, and the first vintage Mercedes owner all emailed the owner of Leatherique to inform him that their might be an issue with his product. He was a complete ***, and we received email after email of him blaming us for misuse of the product, and trying to use it on leather that had already been destroyed.

Default I bought the 'ecru' dye for my driver seat but have not had the chance to apply it yet...

I'll let you know how it goes if I get the chance this weekend.

So far, the Lexol cleaner and conditioner (a bottle of each) has been working fine.
