Conditioning perforated leather seats

Wondering how people are conditioning (or even cleaning) the RC's perforated leather seats. How do you prevent the perforations filling up with the conditioning cream and not bunging up the operation of the ventilated seats?? Thoughts?

Meguiar's is your friend:

I use a damp, soft cloth and spray the product on my cloth and not the seats.


Best wishes!
Leatherique and Zaino Z10 Leather are great conditioning options too. Lexol pH balanced cleaner can be used to clean the leather first before you condition it.

Ditto, I spray or put the product on the soft cloth first, work it into the cloth a bit so it is not just a blob, and then put it on the seats.

That way of using the product is especially important with glass, i hate seeing people spraying onto the glass. It irks my detailer friends even more, especially when they're training people :D
Agreed^
You don't want a concentrated blob of that stuff on your leather seats so it's always best to apply it on a cloth first. Luckily I made that mistake with my leather couch and not the car seats.

So you care more about your car seats than your couch? I think that's funny, only because it reveals so much about your priorities.

Why yes, yes I do. :D
It happened years ago and twas an ugly couch anyways. It was also on of those couches where you can flip the seat cushion and hide any imperfections.

With the car seats many more people see it when I park and want to check out the car, whereas my house couch is only seen by me, the wife and the dog most of the time. >:D

Nothing nice lasts when you have a dag or cat. :D
Also, your car most likely costs a lot more than your couch so a spot on your car seats hurts more than a dark spot on your couch.

You are 100% correct. ;)

I have been using the same technique for my Lexus for quite some time now. First I vacuum the leather, then I clean it with steam clean for car, then I treat it with a protective agent like Fortador Leather Vinyl Trim, The Chemical Guys SPI220. More information on car steam cleaning process can be found here Car steam cleaning process | What is car steam clean? the means of protection that I have given above.
