Just got my leatherique in hand - update

Hoping to get it done tomorrow once there is sun. Its been raining all week and I know i need the sun to enhance the effectiveness of the product. Hopefully should be able to give you guys a review soon.

So the rain didnt falll but it was fairly overcast and about 29c outside ( not farenheit). The car was not in direct sunlight but it was fairly warm outside. The rej oil looks all wet and greasy on the seats and has been on the car for about 7 hours. Is this how it supposed to look or is it supposed to dry out a bit. No white hazing anywhere. I guess i will leave it on all night as well. Should i see if i get some sun tomorrow or does the prestine clean get that greasy look off the seats?

wow wow wow. man this product lives up to all the hype. of looked awful applying the rej oil and leaving it on for 24 hours but its like magic increase u apply the Prestine clean then damp cloth then buff with dry cloth. I cannot believe how the leather looks. factory new and factory clean and soft. if u thought ur heather was soft waittill your try this product. next time I do it which I can't wait for I will know little things that I didn't. you will Nottingham disappointed and only god knows how this product works. you r are literally soaking ur leather first and thinking I know I am going to fuck this up and boy does it look so. love how the car smells too. nice end new. now the rest of the car looks old inside. great product. as an aside I used mothers combo before and my seats looked awful. greasy and slippery. the leatherique combo got rod of everything. its a long process and boy do u sweat a lot. pm for any details. sorry no pics.
