Here at BMW of Austin, most of the Loaner Cars have the leatherette. I would agree with togwt, first clean then protect. We use an APC diluted to about 15:1 with a horse hair brush. The brush is soft enough not to damage, but firm and long enough to clean. We use SM Arnold brushes, but Swissvax and other companies have good brushes too. On our leather seats we use an actual leather cleaner for the cleaning step.
To condition the seats we use the Smart Leather from SmartWax. It is a great conditioner and makes the interior smell great. We have alot of complements with this conditioner.

We start with the drivers side and condition the seats counter clockwise. When finished conditioning we go back to the drivers side and use a clean microfiber to start blending the conditioner and picking up any excess.

We offer the leatherique system if the customer chooses.

I have a 2012 Mini Cooper S with Leatherette seats. I assume they are the same as the BMW's? Would 'Mother's' brand Leather Cleaner and their Leather Conditioner be safe to use on the seats?
Thanks
