Leather help

BamaM5er · 03-23-2020, 03:19 PM

The leather seats in my e39 are in decent shape, well as 20 year old leather can be, but I can't get that well oiled look out of them. Cleaned and conditioned a few times but still look dry to me. Any suggestions?

Try Lexol cleaner and conditioner. Probably needs professional attention.

Professional attention is most likely needed. Or try some heavy furniture conditioner

Maybe late to reply but use this 2 step kit.

Just did my 2001 and the results were unbelievable, turned dried out leather to soft and supple. I used 2 coats over a 3 day period to let it penetrate deep into the leather.
