Prestine Clean Oily??????

Did my seats yesterday with the Rej. Oil and it went as expected. This morning when I poured the Prestine Clean into a spray bottle it smelt and had the same oil consistancy as the Rej. Oil.

So I sprayed the seats down and started working on them. I noticed that the cleaner was in fact kinda oily. I wiped the seats down and buffed them with a MF towel when finished.

They look ok, however they feel like they still have oil on them. I mean when driving around my hands feel kindy filmy after touching everything....

Do you think that maybe my prestine clean bottle was mis-labled by mistake as the two bottles are identical and have identical labels as well.

I used about 8oz of each product for a C43 interior.

Both products contain oils and both work better on warm surfaces (especially on covered leather as the polyurethane has a slow absorbing rate) The oil will work better if you first warm it in a microwave, and also warm the leather surfaces (in the sun, with a hair dryer or with the vehicles heating system) this allows the oil to permeate deeper

The PC is lighter in color than the RO. They should not feel oily when done. The tackyness will go away in a few hours if done correct.
