    Ok I did the whole interior of the 360 today, took me like 1:30
    I used 1/4 of a bottle just like the Testarossa (so I have half bottle left)
    I did it under the sun then I closed the top and I will let it sit overnight and wipe it tomorrow with the windows closed (the parking gets pretty warm)

    I will post results pictures tomorrow

    Yes, it gets less and less glossy as days go by, I keep wiping where I can spot some excess and my guess is some of it gets absorbed into the leather(some areas are coat protected and they will not absorb the product but at least they are clean now)

    Let us know what you think. I’ve been one of those “swears by Leatherique” people for years.

    Just found this thread - was looking for a safe product for my 360 dash. Are we still happy with the Leather Honey product after a year or so? I didn't see any recommendations for a leather cleaner before applying the Honey. I'm terrified to use the wrong product - comments about Leatherique smelling bad turned me right off.

    Ive used leatherique for years have never noticed any bad smell. In fact after I’m done with the process it seems to bring the natural smell of my leather out more.

    I like the very dull factory finish of the leather. Sam from Seen Through Glass on YouTube has the perfect hue on his 360. I used Chemical Brothers and now my leather has a gloss finish. I want to clean that off and get the factory finish that is not shined at all. Is Leatherique the product for me?

    I recently restored the entire interior of my boxe and I only used leatherique products. Prepping agent, rejuvenator oil, crack filler, dye, Klear Kote (as they call it)
    I’m very happy with the result.

    Congrats - impressive results. Did they custom match the dye or is it one of their standard F colors?

    Originally I ordered one of their standard F colors but it didn’t match. Then I sent them a sample of my leather and they matched it perfectly.

    The whole process is a DYI as long as you have patience and follow the instructions from leatherique. The preparation is the most important thing of the entire process. The leather that Ferrari used on the cars in the 80s had oil base dye. Nowadays they use water base dyes. So it’s very important to remove the existing top layer of the leather without damaging it. Once the leather was prepared properly, I used air brush to apply the new dye.
