Does Leatherique Rejuvenator Oil work on coated leather such as BMW's standard leather or what I have in my Toyota 4Runner? Both are starting to show their age a little, so I thought I would try more than woolite/water and Zaino leather in a bottle.



Any thoughts?



Thanks,

Steve
 
i am not sure but that stuff is the sh!t. my friend re did his seats in his 84 jag and they were pretty bad in now they are perfect(nicer than new lambo leather)!

I used to use leatherque, not any more.

if you are looking for high quality stuff go with leather master.

you can find it at top of the line or directly from them.

i dont mean to hijack your thread and if you would like i will delete my post but, i have a 1977 porsche 911S with REALLY stiff and not soft leather. What would you recommend? And if someone answers this question then please go back to the original question in respect for him.
 
Leatherique will do a fine job on coated leather in half the time if used correctly. Problem with products like it, you need to know what you're doing in order to achieve it's maximum. Follow the instructions, and you will fall in love, follow it with pristine clean.
 
I love this product. My only complaint about the Rejuventor oil is that you really only get 4 or so applications out of a bottle. That cost is a little high. They recommend about 4 oz to rub in.

See now, I don't like it on coated leather - doesn't seem to work for me (MB leather). On my Mon's '96 Jag it did wonders, but when I used it on my MB (and I'm not talking about MB-Tex) is just sat on the surface.
 
I'm pretty curious to know if it works on coated leather as well. I've used plenty of lotions on my Pathfinder leather and I too feel the stuff just sits until I wipe it off.

I too am curious where you got this info...I have both, and the look, smell, and texture are all totally different.
I have both as well, and to me, they are very different products. Saying TW makes Zaino leather products is believeable, but saying they are the same product isn't believeable without proof.

I am with Brian on this one. Letting the car sit out in the warm sun with the windows up for a good day or longer if you can with the RO applied thick and reapplied if the leather is really dry is the key here.



I used it on my old 01 Z06 black leather seats in the past with very good results. I know they are coated. Same with the BMW we have now and the past 2 we owned.
 
I agree that RO is messy and expensive....however, when it is slathered on thick, rubbed in well, and left in the hot sun (preferrably when it is high 80's or more outside) for a day or two it can really do a remarkable job on leather in pretty poor condition.



If you have a new car or leather in really good condition it is a bit of overkill IMO and not nearly as easy to use as many other products.
 
I just ordered some to use on the seats in my old Accord. They need a little help after 18 years of use. Should I wait to try and use this until it gets warmer outside or is there a way to do it in the cooler months. FYI, we are supposed to have a couple days of mid 80's here in Texas so that may be good enough.
 
Mid 80's is fine......especially if it is sunny and you can leave the car out in the sun. I would try to leave it in the sun for two days if you can. If you have to move it before you remove the RO use a plastic trash bag to sit on. It says to use 4 oz per seat but that will probably do two seats in your old Accord...just use it liberally and let the leather take as much as you can work into the seats with your hands. You might want to use some plastic disposable gloves but I prefer to just use my fingers and keep a few old towels around to wipe your hands off. It is a fairly messy process applying the RO. Be sure to clean the leather first and at least get any loose debris off. An 8 to 1 mixture of some woolite to wipe/scrub down first would not be a bad idea but a damp rag would be ok as well.

It absolutely does assuming you adopt the correct procedure. It's one of the best, if not the "best", leather product out there. Wear gloves when applying. Enjoy :xyxthumbs

Thank you, is that a link I am supposed to follow? What is the "correct" procedure for coated leather? I am assuming I cannot do this until next summer?



Thanks

You can do it when the weather has cooled down, by applying a blow dryer. Its just more labour intensive as opposed to letting the vehicle sit outside in the warm weather.
