That's too bad...what kind of cream did you put on them?
I've driven mine through countless rain and snow for the past five years...one time in Northern California for several solid hours of heavy rain. Had the car rained on in parking lots overnight as well. I've always been amazed about how durable it's been. I know of more than a few owners who have had the same experience.
I've never added anything to the leather...just let it dried out. And that's on top in being in 100+ heat that is common here in the summer. Still in extremely nice condition.
I can't imagine anyone asking an mfg. to guarantee leather that has been soaked and had some unknown product applied to it.
