Armoral's products, with the exception of the tire gel, are pretty universally crap. They're horribly greasy and offer little/no real UV protection.
I use either 303 Aerospace Protectant or Poorboy's Natural Look. Neither are available "over the counter", but you can purchase them here: http://www.danase.com/incarca1.html |

I do recommend treating your leatherette with Leatherique for optimal conditioning. On a new vehicle, you'd be fine with just the Prestine Clean step. It is a unique application process compared to other leather / leatherette care products so I will outline how I get the best results from the product: 1. Vacuum seats thoroughly and wipe down with a damp towel to ensure debris are removed from the surface 2. Apply Prestine Clean directly onto the seats with a terry cloth applicator pad, using generous amounts around stitching and cracked areas 3. Allow Prestine Clean to penetrate leather for 15– 30 minutes 4. Remove Prestine Clean with a warm damp cloth towel 5. Buff completely dry with a new dry cloth towel I end up using anywhere from 2oz - 4oz for my car per treatment to give you an idea on product usage. I'll treat my leather to Prestine Clean about 3 times a year and apply the Rejuvenator Oil at least once a year. I think you'll have great luck with any of the products mentioned and will definitely give you the look, feel and protection you are going for. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask. George |
