    It's sold at Amazon among other places and is advertised as being water repellent, but not waterproof.

    We have a Corbin Leather Seat on our Spyder. Tons of Blue Web Stitching.
    I use Doc Bailey's Leather Detail Kit, Clear on it.

    I forgot all about that. Seems to work quite well, she doesn't complain about it and it has been in the rain way more then I can count. We were in the rain half the day today with it.

    Hope this helps.

It does contain Carnauba Wax and a UV Blocker, if you're interested in that. I first became familiar with this product when I watched a Suzuki dealer go over my brand new Katana 1100 before delivery. He literally put it on everything. The label says it "treats" vinyl, rubber, and finished leather but I see no claim on the bottle that it water proofs so I guess you'll have to try it to see if it reduces or eliminates water absorption in the seat. Here's what I don't get...these expensive aftermarket seats that use materials that absorb water. Why? The OEM seat doesn't do that so why can't they?
    Thanks Hornblower, picked up ProtectAll from my local WallyWorld today. Now if I can only get the seat dried out. 4 days of sitting in the Florida sun and my butt got wet from seam seepage on the way to Wallyworld to get the ProtectAll, geezz!...........................Dickie

    I cured the problem before it got wet. One ride on this thing and it's back to the stocker for me. Soon to be for sale in the classifieds.

    Opas, I should have clarified why. Two things for me, I have a terrible time finding the right seat for any bike, because of my back. Surgery 20 years ago, doesn't keep me from doing a lot of things, but take motorcycling for instance, I have to have the right seat or I pay for it. The second thing, and this wont affect you, the material used in the center of the tuck and roll is too "sticky" for me and prevents me from moving around easily, which I need to do with my back. It's a quality product, and if the seating position fits you, I'm sure you'll be happy.

    Just ordered this seat from you about 24 hrs. ago, now I'll be able to get it treated before I too, learn the hard way! Thanks again
