Default argh...did i screw up?

Well I picked up a bottle of Meguiar's leather cleaner/conditioner, went out and started applying to my leather seats without thinking things through and now there is leather cleaner in all the little holes in my seats....anyway to get this out? Will it go away on it's own? Should I have not used it in these areas? Thanks...

Its fine. I use the VW leather cleaner stuff and the conditioner gets in the little holes. I usually rub out the excess conditioner but other than that it just absorbs into the seat and its fine. Makes you have that new car leather smell again though!

So dont worry its normal!

Thats why you should use the leather wipes there is no residue left in the holes.I use them all the time ,but I also have the sport seat.
