    I don't know if all leather treatments call for this, but I have had good luck letting the seats heat up a bit (park in the sun or put a light shining on them) to help open the pores of the leather up. That way when you put your leather treatment on, the leather really soaks it up.

    I'd never heard of that until yesterday when reading various leather care sites....it's recommended to do exactly that....let it sit in sun for 15 mins or use a hairdryer to heat up the leather. Zymol and Spinneybeck recommended it, but Connolly doesn't mention it. Couldn't find any reference from Mequiar's either.

    • Warm the leather upholstery and trim using a household hair dryer or by leaving it exposed to the sun for 10 - 15 minutes.
    • Apply zymol Treat evenly with a dry zymol terrycloth Applicator or Pre-Wax Applicator in small, even amounts, wiping in one direction only.
    • Let it stand for 10 Minutes.
    • Buff gently with a zymol Towel to a dry satin shine. Treat can be reapplied to severely worn leather upholstery and trim without fear of over-treatment.
