Hi guys, just bought a rare leather interior for my M3. (Very chuffed). I want to know the best method and product/s to keep it tip-top. I am aware they may be a thread already on the 'zone' about this topic somewhere but......
Thanks in anticipation

I have just bought some E30 balck leather sport seats. I have cleaned them with degreaser, dyed with Woolies leather dye, then I used a Woolies sealing paste and then used Connolly feed. Now they look alot better.
This will not remove crack but at least the crack are black. Feeding will stop the cracks getting any worse.

Thank you guys. That 'Connolly Feed' sounds just the ticket.
Hey Dave, hope you are okay. Sweep is fitting the interior tomorrow, then off to Matt's for some paint on the new boot etc.
