How to apply Leather Conditioner

Good tip Dylan.

Great tip also

Do you think the heat from your hands helps to penetrate the conditioner??

I used some Leather conditioner on my car last night and when i got in this morning my seats felt soft and smooth! Plus I love the clean smell of it in the AM!

Do you think the heat from your hands helps to penetrate the conditioner??

With P-Leather, only a very small portion of the conditioner makes it through to the actual leather - massaging by hand like Dylan does (and like I do) is the most effective way to get the best coverage and best absorption.

Hey Frank, how about you post your tip about putting the bag over the leather and letting it sit in the sun?

Excellent tip. The leather seats in my G8 are quite stiff, and I was wondering how to get the conditioner to penetrate. I'll give this a try.

I think its more pressure you get on the product to get it in the leather.

Heat couldnt hurt but like Jesse said its more the pressure and massaging action you get by working with your hands. Also makes it much easier to get into the creases and seems of the seat as well.

I tried this today. It worked great. Thanks for the tip.

Ditto, I detailed the SS's interior this weekend and used this method on the actual leather and it seemed work great. The leather does feel better than when just wiped with product (I did that first). Unfortunately my garage is like a cave it is do dark so when I was driving to and from church yesterday I noticed some uneven application on the dash and door panels I need to even out. Whoops.

i did my fathers front seats the other day. hes a chain-smoking, hard working, man. So the seats were absolutley FILTHY. i applied the cleaner and actually used a hard-bristle brush the scrub the leather. worked really well and got in all of the cracks also!

When you apply by hand, any after effects on the skin/palms? Just curious..........

I haven't tried the hand method but what I do get on my hands seems to make them soft and smooth.

:iagree:

Yeah my hands felt softer and smelled like leather the rest of the day. lol Adam's conditioner has a mild leather scent so it wasn't bad noticeable unless you smelled them.

hmmm need to try this on the vette. Great tip thanks

Maybe an inexpensive alternative to botox?

Since it was mentioned that the heat from the hands is not a factor maybe just using a rubber glove to prevent the smell of leather. Unless you enjoy smelling you're hands all day.
