I just want to share my experience with leatherique rejuvinator and prestine clean,these combo makes my 93 190e leather so soft and clean you can smell the leather,it works like magic.I tried everything(lexol,eagle one,tanners,etc..)but this leahterique is exceptional.You guys should give it a try.

Any Pics?

Glad to hear that. After checking their web page, it surely looks as though it does a good job.

Got pics of before and after?

I have recently cleaned the leather interior of my 300CE with mercedes leather care (000 986 05 71) and that worked great as well.
Some of the interior parts (as the rear head rests/roll-bar) were white colored because of the long non-use period...the interior is like new again!

greetingz,

What did you use to apply it? Some people have said that you have to use your bare hands to apply it, something to do with oils and stuff, and they said it was hard to get off of your hands. Can you use some kind of applicator or how about use rubber gloves to apply it?

I think the prestine clean will work on MB-tex,
gpvs:Its not hard to take the oil on your hand just wash your hand with soap,you could use some hand gloves if you want.

I also will attest to the quality of Leatherique. I used it on my 6.9 and the interior is like brand new. It's a good two day process, so do it on a weekend when you have nothing planned and also when it's warm out.

I heard a lot of good stuff about leatherique. I first learned about them from the RROC (Rolls Royce owners club). When I do work on leather next time, i am going to give them a try. I talked to ferrari owners, rolls, bently, etc. and almost all of them endorse it.

I dont think it will work on MB tex. Its designed to be used on leather. MB tex is not leather. It will never be as soft, nice, or luxurious as leather. Although it wears much better and requires a lot less maintence than leather. Why would MB put that cheap stuff in there anyway?

I just applied it for the first time this past weekend. I was out of town until sunday morning and got a coat of the rejuv. oil on about 11am. I let it set outside, about 80F, until evening, then moved it into the garage until monday evening. After wiping and buffing with the pristine clean, man what a difference. I did however only use about 4oz for the whole interior, so I'll be doing it again when it gets warmer, but one coat really makes a difference, even though I didn't use enough rejuv. oil. I'll endorse it.

I got a bottle of Leatherique as a door prize at a MB Club meeting a year ago. I used it on an old leather jacket that was stiff as a board. "WOW" is the correct expression. The jacket turned soft as new. I just ordered more this month. They were/are giving a $14 discount on the cleaner if you order the quart of rejuvenator oil ($50.00 for 32 oz of each).I suggest you go to their web site to get the instructions for application since none came with the product, although it is easy to apply with a brush or bare hand. I have also been using it on some old boots and shoes.

Which products?

I've been watching this thread for a while now because I'm trying to get my wife to use it on some of her purses. Can I just use the Rejuvenator Oil if the surface isn't really dirty? Or must I get the Pristine Clean also?

My car is MB-Tex so the Leatherique is only going to be used on non-MB stuff, at least for the time being.

Thanks,

Robert:You must get both the REj. and the prestine clean cuz the rejuvinator is too oily so you need to take out the oil by using the prestine clean.
