Does the pristine clean the farts out?

dick jokes aside. The seats on my 83 do look a bit better.

Softer? That I'm not sure, it does feel a bit softer but no miracle. But then again, I'm biased hoping it got softer. I have to do a blind test with people to tell on both sharks. Going to do my 85 next.

What do you guys do to clean up the rest? My seat pretty well dried up ok for most parts. The rear seats are still soaked in the stuff.

I thought Leatherique said to use the Rejuv first and then clean up the risen schmutz with the Pristine?

Have you tried it both ways?

That's just what the person I spoke with on the phone said when I was ordering the whole restoration kit. She said to use the Pristine Clean first, then put on the Rujuv and leave it for awhile, then Pristine Clean again, then Rejuv for 3 or 4 repetitions over several weeks to get it softened up nicely. After they're softened then she said to use Pristine Clean one more time before stripping and re-dying the seats. I know this is a little different from the web site but she assured me it was a good way to go.

Mine are coming along nicely, a little softer after 1 1/2 weeks and the dullness is gone (nice and bright color now). I cleaned them then put the Rejuv on. I'll clean them and put Rejuv on again this weekend and repeat over the next few weeks. I don't use very much Rejuv, probably 2oz/seat. She said I can use the smaller amount re-doing it over a longer period so I can still drive the car without getting the Rejuv stuff all over my clothes. Use a white towel with the Pristine Clean and you can see all of the junk coming out, it's pretty disgusting. Best of all for me is the "old car" smell is going away and the leather smell is coming back.

Since they have a few different ways to do it I think they're probably all fine. The only thing that's consistent with them all is patience. I think if you ask the folks on here who have had great results with full restoration it was not overnight. I figure my complete restoration will take at least 8 weekends while waiting between steps for things to be done right. It's difficult since patience is not my strong suit, but I'm hoping it will be worth the wait.
