Howdy,

I recently injured a couple fingers pretty badly, but for some reason I can't seem to keep from working on those "little things" on Kate's '85 735i... it's like her car is calling me.

Today I began treating the front seats with Leatherique to see how good this product is. In reading the instruction I see they recommend using "Pristine," another product they sell at http://www.leatherique.com/ to clean the leather after the grime, etc., has moved up to the surface.

Should I get the Pristine and use it? Anything else work just as well (some cleaner I might already have on hand)? What's your experience, tips, problems using Leatherique and/or Pristine?

I'm letting the car sit in the sun right now creating that "sauna" effect, just as the Leatherique folks recommend. Thought I'd take a moment and seek the universal wisdom once again.. 8-)

Thanks people, Rick

1985 735i (Wife's); 1985 745i (Son's)... Hey, where's mine???

Hi Rick,

I just finished restoring the seats on my 84 733i.The leather was in good shape but very hard.
I had to end up using 2 quarts of the rejuvinating oil to get them soft and it was worth every penny.Leatherique has a BMW special where you get 1 QT. of oil and 1 quart of the prestine clean for $50 .The prestine clean works great it keeps the leather conditioned without build-up.It also works really well on the dash because it leaves a matte finish instead of high gloss.Sorry for running on but I reconditioned and recolored my seats with leatherique and I am very happy with the results.If you call and talk with Krysti she can tell you all the available BMW special pricing.
