Leatherique on a 2002 E320

I'm doing some work on my mother in law's 2002 E320 4Matic. The car has only 80,000 miles on it and is in good shape, but the interior has seen better days: It's dirty and has makeup in many places.

As a test I applied Leatherique to the rear left side seat. I let the conditioner soak in for about 20 hours, then used the cleaner and followed up with a damp towel. Im very pleased

After:

After:



The leather is now nice and clean, and much softer to the touch.

I'm going to do the rest of the interior this week

I agree. Leatherique does a fine job cleaning/restoring neglected leather seats.

Wow! I need to do that to my seats again soon. I'll try that stuff, I had been using a different product but it wasn't working very well...

I got this kit from AutoGeek: Leatherique 32oz leather cleaner conditioner kit contains Leatherique leather care & restoration products.

I put a double coat on the seats of my SDL. I'm excited to see how they'll come out

I used Leatherique on my97 SL seats summer year and it works. Will be giving ti a fresh coat ths year. ( hot temps help ) The trick is to let it soak, the leather didn't dry out overnight so it isn't going to recover in 15 min.
