I have full Merino leather. I only put Colourlock on the leather surfaces only, no plastics or Alcantara. I treated the dash, the doors, seats, headrests, knee pads on the center console, and center console cover.

I wouldnt use it on the suede bits, smooth or perforated leather only. Put it on the cloth or sponge first dont apply directly to seats.

Used colourlock mild cleaner and leather shield today. Definitely washed all the Cg stuff off and leaves a factory like finish. The CG stuff had started to evaporate and was starting to show the splotching where product remained.

Do you use any of their other products?
Just curious as I wouldn't use the brand again based on my experience and wonder if it was a one off.
Dr. Beasley's matte detail. CG is garbage. I had the same white streaks on my Frozen dark blue M3CS

Sorry mate but visually difficult to see any difference in that video. Certainly didn’t see anything that resembled the thumbnail.

What do you use on tires to keep them matte? I’ve never been a fan of the glossy tire look.

Adam's Graphene VRT will give a matte look. Or, you can use a longer lasting product like CarPro DarkSide and come back after 30 min and hit it with a microfiber towel to reduce some of the shine.

I use CarPro PERL diluted (about 1:1 with water). Result is a slight sheen -- not glossy by any means, nor matte.
