Leatherique Rejuvenator Oil

Received my Leatherique Rejuvenator Oil and Leatherique Prestine Clean from detailerdomain a couple weeks ago, planning on using it this weekend but not sure how to apply it. Been reading on it and some say it needs be sitting in the sun and some say it needs to be cool/warm area not direct sunlight.

From my understanding i should use at least 4oz per seat and let it sit for at lease 24hrs+ is that correct?

My understanding is you apply the oil generously and leave the car sit in the sun (above 80 deg F) for 48 hrs with the windows up to build heat inside. This opens the pours in the leather and allows the oils to push out the inpurities sweat, dirt etc). after the sitting period all the leather surfaces get thoroughly wiped off with the cleanser. I'm going to be doing this exact thing the coming weeks.

I did mine for about 36 hours in mid 70 degree weather. It was a lot warmer in the car parked in the sun, so the ambient air temperature may be fine. I was very hapy with my results.

i left mine on for two days in the garage,it was about 90 or so but i didn't pull it out in the sun,and i the seats looked fantastic when i took it off with the prestine clean.i think 1 day is only enough if you get it super heated up.
