The Gtecniq Ultra Serum is the best of the best, but almost impossible to buy retail. It's slightly harder and thicker than the Adam's Advanced Graphene Coating for exterior. I was worried about the idea of ceramic on an interior leather but did it anyway, Adam's brand. It has provided a great base layer of protection, zero shine. Only difference is there seems to be a "glitter" at certain angles in the perforations, maybe leftover crystals??
My question now is would use of a conditioner do anything?? I want to keep the seats hydrated but wonder if chosing a ore durbale high end ceramic leather coating prevents my compliments desire to massage my leather with butter 😀 igotta believe that even with a ceramic "barrier" the conditioner has to be beneficial in some way and not just negated...? |

This may be a dumb question but I'm assuming using it on sensafin interior is ok as well?

Sensafin is vinyl, I would not wast you’re money on doing this to a vinyl, keep it cleaned and apply a vinyl conditioner like 303 protector and be done.

Should anyone stumble on this thread......be mindful of what you put on your leather and why..... Leather that has been color coated (aka, a plastic's SEM dye) is fine to put a coating on IMO. Good leather like Merino, I would never If one is concerned about raw jeans + ivory, I get the point of doing it... However, if one has real leather that is not color coated.....be mindful that adding a protective coating on ~good~ leather basically stops you from adding conditioner to the leather. The coating while not permanent, is fairly semi permanent *it does wear over time* ~a long time though~ There is a huge assumption coating, ceeeee-rrrrr-aaaa-mic is the best thing ever as LSP , but just understand what it does and what it also prevents you from doing IF applied.
