Hey AG! It's been a while since I've been on the forum to display some work or simply to interact with you guys, I have to say I missed it alot.
A few days ago I was lucky enough to make a purchase on a classic 1967 Cadillac Coupe Deville in great condition, but as detailers we will always find something that bugs us if not 100% perfect :)
Before I attempted to take a shot at cleaning the leather of the seats and dash and the upholstery I wanted to ask if I should watch out for anything or if you guys recommend any special product to do the job on these old cars to maintain the patina of these old cars.
Here are some of the photos I was able to take from the work that will need to be done on this bad boy.
What I'm most worried about is the big ol' brown sweat looking stain on the back seats.

See the "ring" that goes around in the middle.

Regular polish to clean out this section? I'm thinking P21 Polishing soap?
49492
More leather to clean here, not sure what product for a 49 year old car to preserve the patina but to remove the dirt (see handle)
49493
49494
Even the vinyl on the steering can use some lovin' right now.

All inputs are appreciated, thank you Geeks :D
