Saddle Dressing also works very well. That's what we use on my dad's Statesman about every 6mths. Apply it very lightly on Sunday morning with a clean rag and it soaks right in for a nice non greasy finish before lunch. If not, you've applied too much and you just need to wipe back over the seat with another clean dry rag to remove the excess.

I tested on the armrest first to get the application amount and technique right before doing the seats. It's not hard to get right.

Go to any Horseland or RM Williams stockist.

There are two products you can get. RM's Own and RM Williams Saddle Dressing.

RM's Own is a white cream that is a little less greasy than Saddle Dressing, but both are OK.

I use both products on all my RMW Boots as well as the car seats.
