Do you mean the Perma Plate pack?

I've used everyting except the carpet cleaner. The Perma Plate "Renewer" was a breeze to use and boy does the water bead up nice too!

I have the Leatherette seats and the conditioner works nice too. Makes getting out lickety split!

I haven't found much information about anyone else with the Perma Plate...

I'm not sure if it was called Perma Plate. My dealership had some bottles out on display. Most of the wording seemed to be in German but had English listed below the German.

I might give the interior cleaner a whirl.

Most of them are around 7 bucks a bottle.

Huh, I think I have a different kind. Mine doesn't have any MINI logos on it. It's made by Perma Plate.

Anyone else have this?

I have used the leather cleaner. It works real good. The bottle says that you should use it every 6 months to protect and clean the seats.

I've used all the MINI car care products except for the leather care, since I have leatherette :???:

They all work very well. I dont really like thier wheel cleaner and the insect remover.

Thanks for the feedback. In the mean time, I've become a Zaino-Head. My shipment should be here tomorrow! I've heard their tire detailer kicks butt!
