Our little gems have yards and yards of it, so what is the best treatment out there. I have a local tandy leather shop, so lay it on me...gots to keep blondi looking sharp.

I used Leatherique last year. I followed their instructions completely. In the heat of summer I first vacuumed cracke & seams I then liberally coated the interior leather 3 times, with "Rejouvinator", working it in real good by hand (rubber Gloves) waiting 1 week between coats with car closed up in the hottest place I could find without direct sunlight shining on the car, Then cleaned all residue from all leather with "Pristene Clean". I'm satisfied.. Good Luck, Lou

No I bought it directly from Leatherique. I bought the complete 32 oz kit, 32oz Rejouvenator, 32oz Pristene Clean, 32oz Precleaner that you use with sandpaper before you redye. 32oz Dye, and came with a small container of filler,

I follow the TC Pages Detailing script every year. Here's the Leather portion. Scroll up/down for other ways to keep Blondie looking good. I use the Lexol products...
