Leatherique Leather Rejuvenator/ Prestine Clean Pair 16 Oz

I have used this product on many old cars that I have purchased in the past. I used it on a 20 year old leather interior for a Lotus Esprit where the leather looked like the bottom of your dress shoes. I slathered in on and left in the sun for 2 days. Black and white nasty sticky stuff came out of the leather. When I cleaned it up I was astonished. The nap raised up, the color brightened, the thickness increased and it was soft to the touch. It even smelled new and looked new as well. This product saved me a bunch of money getting the car re-upholstered. If you think your seats are done, use this product first, you wont be dissapointed. Here's some helpful hints. 1) Do the application when you have time to leave the car in the sun for 2 to 3 days. 2) Don't use an applicator. Put a handful into your hand and SLATHER the stuff on. You can't really put too much on. It cleans up with water so I'm not concered about getting it on other hard sufaces. It even looks good on some plastics (makes your hands soft too). 3) Do the dash even if its vinyl. It will get rid of the chalky dry look. 4) If you have a leather steering wheel put extra there. That seems to be where most of the natural oils are taken out by your hands and sun and is the hardest to get the oil to soak in. 5) The next day, wherever the oil has soaked in, add more! I am amazed how much will soak in. 6) After the 2nd or 3rd day, I like to use a bucket of hot water and a wash cloth to remove the residue. Don't worry about it sitting too long. I did my BMW and left it for a week before removing product. Looked great. I accidently ordered what I thought was this product on eBay. It was a terrible fake. Beware of anyone using the term Leatherique. It's a great product with lots of copy cat products.

I usually don't review items, unless I'm really impressed, or really disappointed. In this case, it was the former. I have a 2008 Chevrolet Tahoe that I purchased used from a dealership just over two years ago. I put seat covers over the front seats right after I purchased it to "protect the leather". When I removed the covers recently, preparing to sell the vehicle, I found that the seats were very dry. I tried some cleaners and leather conditioners that I had purchased locally from the auto parts store. I ended up with sticky seats. In addition, my jeans left impressions in the seats when I got out of the vehicle. I did an internet search on "sticky leather" and this product was mentioned. I applied the rejuvenator, leaving it on the seats with the car parked on the street with the windows closed. I came back after three days and found that the front seats had absorbed most of the solution, so I applied additional rejuvenator to the front seats. I then waited 4 more days before going to the next step. I applied the prestine clean to the 2nd and 3rd row seats, removed with a damp microfiber towel, then buffed with a dry towel. The seats looked great. Then I got to the front seats. I tried the same process, but found that the towel stuck to seats when I tried to buff them. I applied more prestine clean, and then got a little more aggressive with the damp micofiber towel. I began to see black stains on the yellow microfiber towel (my interior is black leather). In addition to the stains, there were little black particles on the towel. I am assuming that the front seats were dyed at some point. The prestine clean, along with some elbow grease, slowly removed the dye. The passenger seat took about 3 treatments, and the driver about the same, but I had to go back when I moved the vehicle into the sunlight to cover some areas I had missed. The strange thing is that the seats had very little wear, and they looked amazing when I was done. I can't imagine why the dealership would have used the nasty goop that they applied to the front seats, except that maybe it made their "re-conditioning process" faster. I don't know what I would have done if I had not found this product. I am definitely a fan!

This is product works so well, it is unbelievable. I have to admit that when I first applied the rejuvenator I thought I made a huge mistake. It was sticky and I just thought it is going to be very hard to remove (it was more like a sticky mess). After letting the rejuvenator sit for 24 hours, I removed it with prestine clean. The removal process was so much easier than I had imagined. Then I wiped the leather down with a warm damp towel. The result was awesome. The leather is not sticky, not shiny and feels clean and like new. I was even able to restore the leather steering wheel of a 8 year old car.

I've used the Rejuvenator Oil and Pristine Clean twice now with a 2002 BMW M3 with the Cinnamon Napa Leather seats. I've owned the car since 2004, and it had 55K miles the first time I treated (in 2018), and 60K the second. Followed the directions as provided by the seller and by various users on Youtube and elsewhere (i.e., I used the Oil first, then the Cleaner). The primary symptom I was looking to address was the hardness of the leather, approaching the dreaded "cardboard-like" feel. After the first treatment, I was fairly pleased with the cleaning effects achieved, but the softening of the leather was very underwhelming. The weather during the 24 hour period I let the Rejuvanator sit on the leather was cloudy and not as hot as normal, which I thought might have muted the effects of the treatment. Two years later I treated a second time. This time we got very hot weather and even achieved a "sauna" like effect in the cabin of the car while the oil soaked in. And yet, again, while the seats got a bit cleaner (not as big a difference because it has only been about 5K miles since last treatment), I don't feel much difference in softness/suppleness. I haven't gotten a satisfactory answer searching online about whether the Leatherique system really works on modern automotive leathers, due to coatings used. Based on the results I've seen in two treatments on early 2000s Napa leather in a BMW, I can't strongly recommend this product. While I don't think it's "snake oil" because it clearly did clean the seats, the modest effect on the softness/suppleness was disappointing. Because I still have a good deal of product left, I will likely treat again in a few years, as some people claim repeated treatments may be required for softness/suppleness. I'll gladly update my review should things change.

Products worked very well in cleaning and conditioning the seats on my W124 Mercedes. I was less pleased with the results on my leather steering wheel, which was severely cracked before treatment. Maybe I was expecting a miracle and just didn't get one. After using the Prestine cleaner, the leather wheel was left feeling dry and rough. I coated it again with the conditioner and let it sit for a full week. After wiping it off (without the cleaner), the wheel feels better. Still no miracle, but an improvement. Overall I'm pleased with the product despite the relatively high price.

my Volvo seats were getting a little worn and I wanted to do some preventative maintenance to keep them looking like new. I did tons of research and decided this was the best product for the money. I followed the directions exactly and applied to the seats, I wasn't sure how good this would work but everyone said let it sit for a day so I did. the next day I went out to do clean them off with the provided spray and that was probably the hardest part, it took awhile to get them clean. after about a week after there is a noticeable difference in the seats, they feel a lot softer and smooth. the cracks soaked up a lot but didn't completely disappear but I wasn't expecting them to, I'm sure this will help out with the longevity of my seats. I also like that this product can be used on mbtex too so I will be doing my other car next.

Works nicely in restoring moisture to leather jackets, boots and leather seats. This may darken some oil based leathers like pull-up leather so test it first. Also, it doesn't smell. I've used Mink oil which has a stinky/gamey smell to it. When you apply this, it does have a slight smell but it goes away and it is by no means unpleasant. The only problem with this product is that I apply it to so many leather things that I keep running out of leather things to apply it to.

At first I wasn't sold. I let the oil soak for 24 hours and used pristine clean to clean the dirt the oil leached out. I didn't feel that it got my leather soft enough to make the process worth my time, effort or money. I did not have time to use pristine clean on the rear seats and the oil sat for a week on the leather. What it did to my rear seats in this time period was simply amazing. The amount of junk the oil pulled out of my seats was astounding. I never knew it was there. I just took my wife's 05' Volvo XC70 as my personal vehicle after buying her a new car. With small children and the car always parked outside in Southern California, the entire interior was needing lots of love to make the car enjoyable again. Since the first application, I again coated the entire interior, dashboard, gauge cluster, climate control panel and virtually everything made of leather, vinyl and plastic. What it did to the plastic is what really sold me even though what it did to the leather is completely ridiculous! The fake plastic wood grain is totally renewed, maybe even beyond renewed....not greasy, no wierd film on the plastic....just simply renewed! This is a long process and requires commitment so plan accordingly. The longer you can let the oil sit, the better the results.
