    Looking good KFJ! We did something similar to our leather boots during my military service to keep them soft and shiny, worked a treat, but never thought to use it on car seats.

    I have used a beeswax sealer on shoes and athletic gear that uses a similar application method. I forgot about Colourlock but saw it at a customer's showroom last week and found it on Amazon.

    Which one? The plywood one or the aluminum softpad one?



    I ordered mine in cherry veneer.



    The softpad lounge is as pictured. Have an Aeron chair too. I have had them since the late 90's when I worked there at their R&D center.

    I like both lounges for different reasons, but the soft pad is morcomfortable to me because it reclines.

    I'll take them all in the order they're listed! They're beautiful, the loungers! The office chair is probably comfortable?

    A plywood set and a Frank Lloyd Wright house would keep me happy. Beauty is wonderful. Fallingwater would be perfect, except I'm not sure the chairs would be a good match there.

    Anyone in need of a massage with a 'happy-ending' just contact KFJ at the above address.

    Thanks for the info, Sir. You know everyone else was thinking the same!

    Yes, the office chair has been with me for almost 20 years. I have used it at office jobs and my own home office during that time. It's very comfortable.

    I toured a few FL Wright homes across the nation. I lived across from one while I was in college:

    http://meyermayhouse.steelcase.com/

    It was owned and restored by a local corporation. You can tour it for free, IIRC. If you ever get stateside, try to go see Falling Water, it's really pretty amazing! The Midwestern cities have a great selection of his work to see, especially Chicago.

    Sadly I wasn't that interested in Wright when i visited the Us seven year ago, so I've only seen Guggenheim in the flesh (a great gallery building and great artpiece itself).

    It is a free tour! I went through it a couple years ago when I was up there visiting family. That's cool you lived across the street from it!

    And to stay on topic, the seats look great in the car!

    20 years is good for an office chair. I need to quit buying cheap chairs, every couple years.

    But yea, back on topic. The seats look great despite your photography skills Those wheels look great on an NA that is a little lower than Mike's was. Very tasteful.

    Yeah, the building I lived in was built in the late 1800s. It was pretty cool, nice carpentry and windows. That used to be a bad neighborhood, but was gentrifying when I left. There were some nicer homes up the hill that some of my classmates rented. Used to run a blind pig collaborative every semester to cover expenses for school. Those were some crazy gigs.

    Thanks! Pics turn out odd posting from my phone on Tapatalk.

    I figured that's who used to own these wheels before me. I remember Mike's NA and how much he liked my e30. I really like them a lot on this car, a bit ironic I wound up with them.

    We have an Eames chair and can see a FL Wright house from our back yard. We have a Humanscale Freedom chair for work and are not terribly happy with it. Need to check out the Aeron as a possible replacement.
