My Favorite Leather Restoration Products

If you have the time to experience the full benefits of these two products, it is a worthwhile investment.  The Leatherique system has yielded some very dramatic results on your classic leather seats and noticeable improvement when used on perforated (most modern cars) leather seats.

For vehicles that I will have for over 24 hours with leather seats these two products will often be used. Click here to read a previous article outlining how to use these products.

My method is very similar:  working one seat at a time I will often use Gtechniq cotton swabs to spread the product.  I like to apply a generous amount of this product.  Then promptly afterwards I will hand massage it into the material.  After applying Rejuvenator to all seats, I will wait 24 to 48 hours before using Pristine Clean with a microfiber towel to remove the excess Rejuvenator.  I apply just enough Pristine Clean to a clean microfiber to effectively remove the excess Rejuvenator.

Below is a picture of a leather seat of a 1979 Olsmobile Toronado, by the owner’s own admission the seats had been completely neglected.

These are the results below after two successive 24 hour treatments with the Rejuvenator and Pristine Clean.

The rejuvenating (pun intended) properties are enhanced with the vehicle left out in direct sunlight on a hot day.  Although I have had great success without the benefit of these conditions, leaving a car in the garage.

If I am cleaning leather seats this way, I may use the Pristine Clean to clean the steering wheel and dashboard.
