Question Question For Katzkin Owners! Need Help!

About to pick up my seats.

Need owners to chime in for me.
Are you supposed to run your heater on high for one hour every day to let
the leather conform to the seats?
If so... for how many days?
And HIGH at max temp?


I heard something about this but the upholstery shop said he knew nothing about this.

I can't find anything on Katzkins site either.
I just want to make sure I do the right thing.
Thanks!

Its like anything else everyone is gonna have an opinion like when installing gears some think u need to heat cycle and some dont. So im sure u will get mixed opinions on this. But when i bought my car brand new I have never heard of doing that. Taking care of your leather seats with the right products is probably the most important.

I would suggest calling Katzskins and asking them directly.

Setting a hot a** in the seat will help too.
