Lexol for leather?

[Susan]

Does anyone else use this? I purchased the brown spray bottle of Lexol with a microfiber cloth. I applied it, waited a few minutes and then wiped off. I noticed some black dye (from the leather) on the microfiber cloth. Has anyone else experienced this?

i've used it (not on the 4runner) but have never experienced that before.

I used to use this long ago before discovering zaino leather in a bottle. Never had any problems with lexol but didn't like trying to buff the shine out of it.

Leather holds a lot of dirt. My guess is you didn't clean it well enough before applying the lexol.

Is there anyway I could have removed some of the dye? I freaked out when I saw some dark spots on my yellow microfiber cloth. I've looked at the seat several times and I'm not sure if I removed any color or not?

I only did the rear seat behind the driver's side.

I noticed this too the first time I used cleaner/conditioner on the seats. I use Tannery All Purpose Cleaner & Conditioner (aerosol) and a white microfiber. Have not really noticed it since, so it is probably just a little residual dye from the manufacturing of the seat leather/material.
