I've read through the leatherique how to thread, and Im still in the grey about whether or not this can be used for my seats in the C32. Someone said that seats with holes in them are clear coated. My C32 has perforations on the butt and back portion, so does this mean its clear coated?

Anxious to see how this stuff works. My leather is in really good shape, and I want to keep it that way.

Thanks in advance

Covered Leather-Identifying characteristics- uniform colour and grain patterns; will not scratch easily; water drops will not change colour.
Covered leather like clear coated paint requires oils to stop it from drying out, the myth that oils (from polish or leather cleaners) is just that a myth. If you do not provide the paint/leather with oils it will dry out and crack

Perforated Leather:
Should be routinely cleaned using a pH-balanced, non-alkaline cleaner (6:1 Distilled water / WooliteŽ solution) to loosen and lift grease and grime without drying the leather or affecting the hide's natural pH.
In addition to regular cleaning, leather requires replacement of natural oils

Apply to a warm surface to help the oils penetrate (warm with the suns heat or a hairdryer) allow sufficient time (preferably overnight) for the oils to permeate the leather. Use a product that will dry without leaving a residue in the perforations of the leather or a greasy surface.

Don't let any leather cond or cleaner soak into perforated seats as the backing should not get wet...read your owners manual for more info.

I'm assuming this is a warning not to use too much product, or is there something about the backing material used? If you don't use a leather conditioner it will dry out and crack.

Thanks for the help
