If anyone in Houston or around Houston wants to know where to go to get the best job done just let me know !

LOL - wrong 3M product

I've been told the 3M product is good for the pseudo suede we have in the car but I've been using the Optimum Protectant from E-Shine
on all my interior including the vinyl, leather and suede. Its interesting to note that the protectants used in leather are the same as used in vinyl. I believe leather is also treated with a chemical similar or the same a vinyl to increase its durability - essentially a very thin layer of vinyl embedded in its surface for protection. I'm assuming since most modern interior materials use these chemicals the suede will be similar. I've used the product on it and it looks fantastic on all the materials in the car. Nice and clean with a luster but no glare like Armour all. Very happy with this product. Again thanks for the pointer NXTAZEE.

I've done a lot of reading and researching on this pseudo suede I've yet to find any real answers. I'd like to know if this is the Alcantra product which some pseudo suede is referred to as....

You may however want to use the 3M as a sealant but from the sounds of it most of these products are sealed when they are manufactured. I guess the only issues would be the stitching possibly?
