Subject: Re: leather seat care
I must disagree with you there. The drivers seat in a car with leather gets
quite abused from daily wear, especially on saabs, where they can achieve
quite high mileage. Saabs leather is quite a bit stronger than some of its
competitors though. I would suggest any type of hide food especially for the
drivers seat as it gets the most wear and needs to maintain supple. Also,
the leather in a car is prone to te extemes of heat and cold unlike a
leather sofa.
