Just got up.... About to go and see how well the RO has soaked in. Nice buttery smooth leather is heavenly.

Leatherique is having a leather clinic at Star Tech in April at Carey, NC. That is why I am going.

Most leather conditioners/cleaners are to be used sparingly...do the directions on this product indicate differently?

If you have perforated leather do not use too much product and or let it soak in; the owner's manual warns of this, as the underside of the leather can and should not get wet.

For those who have Nubuck i.e. the CLK55, do NOT use even MB approved leather care products but only a damp microfiber towel to remove oil based stains etc. The nubuck leather is pretreated with a special protective coating from the factory.

I was thinking when I get some of this (still haven't ordered) I'd do my car. As it's the only one that needs it.
