Another Leatherique success story

After hearing so much great stuff about Leatherique, I ordered the stuff a few weeks back and finally got around to a multi-day rejuvination of the leather in my 94 900T convertible (CE). I've been thinking about getting new seat covers, and thought I'd give this a shot.
Hand massaged the oil into the leather, baked in the warm Atlanta weather (90+ degrees inside the car), Prestine cleaned the leather. The rear headrests (sun baked for 10+ years) did start to soften up considerably after the 1st round. But overall, the first round left me a little unimpressed, so I went for round two.
This time I used a very soft toothbrush following another day long lather and bake session to apply the Prestine clean to the really dirty parts (door leather) and it REALLY brightened up. I thought I might have been removing dye, but the end result looks great. You really forget how hard the leather was before after a day of sitting on some nice supple leather seats.
Also did the steering wheel leather wrap. It looks and feels like new. There's no way this car is ready for new seat covers yet! This took three days, and I might do a third round later this summer - I think the seats will only get better now.
