Im pretty someone in here knows and has used mink oil before, but how about on the seats in these cars? I just got done applying some to my seats and the before and after was apparent and Im sure that when I got outside tomorrow the seats will be in a lil better condition.

Im just curious to see what others think about this.

An oil/grease product designed for baseball gloves isn't a good idea for something you sit on, especially if you wear clothes from time to time.

Modern leather conditioners for cars don't have that problem. Whether you have issues with your laundry depends on how much you used, but you won't catch me doing it.

:stupid:

It's great for leather boots, but it leaves a residue for a while. Might wanna put a towel over your seat for a few days to absorb it. I use Lexol Cleaner and their Conditioner. Cleans and protects w/o drying it out or leaving a residue.

Lexol is the best leather product I've ever used on a car. 3 of our 4 cars are leather, and get the treatment twice a year.
