Hi...I'm amazed by the difference as far as soft texture I just got after removing the "Rejuvenator oil"...my seats were really clean before, so I can't tell about the product's ability to dig dirt and toxins from the leather's guts, but the softness you get after the first use is amazing!
I did apply the oil yesterday, late afternoon...the car was in the sun with the windows up to concentrate the heat inside...after 3 hours I pushed the car in the garage and the product was there for 18 hours...I did remove with "Prestine clean" and then used a clean terry cloth to finish the job and "polish" the surface...
The result I'd say is the same as when you use moisturizing lotion in your skin after long sun exposure...the leather feels soft, moisturized and alive...I'd recommend this product...by the way, no difference as far as smell...car smells the same as before application.
PS. I did clean the door panel's handle with "Prestine clean" and the result was great! (check pic)
Take care...

Thanks Kelly, nile13 and John...the more you clean the car, the more it looks like "yours"...it's like you are erasing the previous owner...
Hey Troy...the "Prestine clean" is a great cleaner and it really removes the oily residue...after that I polished the seats with a dry and clean white cloth until no more yellowish residue is coming out...I'd say you better wear a black t-shirt for the next 24 hours anyway as the oil penetrates and probably some will emerge eventually...I'll let you know tomorrow...tonigh I need more room than I'll drive the wife's SUV...tomorrow I'll drive the Porsche and check for any messy stuff...

Thanks Patrick...the interior is really mint but the engine bay was filthy when I bought the car...it will take several weeks for me to really clean it and remove the oxidation from the brackets...probably the previous owner kept the inside pristine but never opened the engine lid...maybe he didn't know the engine is rear mounted!! :- )

Yup, been using the Rejuv Oil and Prist Clean for years and love the results. As per the directions, euro leather tends to be thicker than other car manufacturers and thus benefits from a second application. I do my seats 2x a year and even though my driver's seat is more worn than Pedros, the leather is softer and feels better than when I bought the car years ago. The pair of products are not cheap, but given the results it is well worth the expense, IMHO.

Pedro,
great pics. I also just finished using leatherique for the first time on my 95 cab. Before, the leather seemed somewhat dry and very tight. Now it's much softer but still firm. Excellent product!

I paid $35 plus shipping for the 16 oz package...Oil + Cleaner...you are suppose to use about 4 oz/seat...then 16 oz are enough for two application on both seats...the cleaner probably is good enough for 4 sessions...not cheap but the results are excellent and as Edward said...well worth the expense.
Take care
