Leather rejuvenation advice needed

[Irish03]

I don't want to buy a new car right now, so I decided to spend some cash sprucing up what I've got.

The seats in my '99 328 look like they have been in a time capsule, with the exception of the driver's seat. It's in good condition considering the car's age and mileage, but is looking a bit shiny in places and has a wear spot on the side bolster on the bottom next to the door and on the back also next to the door.

I use leather cleaner on the interior, but would not mind spending time and/or $ to make this seat really look good without the marks. Note: Seats are gray leather, they tend to really show anything. In a black interior this would probably not be noticeable.

Same goes for my '93 525i, but it has tan seats. Both cars just got new mats and the carpet cleaned, so no problems on the floor.

Any advice for me?

Lexol makes a neats foot conditioner if the wear is light. Othwerwise, search for a product called Leathertique(sp). I've not used it, but the photos I have seen where it has been used it looks great.

I love Leatherique! The best combo is the Rejuvenator Oil and Pristine Clean. Check those out.

Thanks for the recommendations. I will probably jump all the way in with Leatherique, as I'd like to make it really look nice. I've maintained the interiors well, but age and mileage take their toll.

Neatsfoot oil is an equestrian tack product that is oil rendered from the feet of cattle or hoofed animals do not use on automotive upholstery as it will rot the seams stitching and being an oil it is unable to permeate finished leather

Who uses any type of natural fiber threading in automotive upholstery? What is used will not rot.

Are you suggesting Neetsfoot oil as a suitable leather care product?

[uncle]

Did I say or suggest that? I don't think I did. I said modern thread does not rot. Your quote is obsolete, regardless of product selected.
