Interior ceramic coating

Does anyone ceramic coat the interior of their car? I've read it can help prevent sunblock sticking to the leather which would be great for me. But I'm worried it will change the feel of the leather.

I have done it on two cars. It does not change the feel or texture of the leather. It is pretty easy to do yourself instead of paying $400-500 at a detailing shop.

No change to how the leather feels.

Does it prevent the blue Jean transfer? Or just make it easier to remove the blue?

I used the same. Applied first day after picking up the car. Very easy DIY.

Haven't had any issues with blue Jean transfer, but any dirt marks easily cleans/wipes off

Would these products be suitable for applying to the backside of the front seats? I'm debating applying something like this or carpro cquartz leather to the back of the seats so when my kids kick the seats their shoes don't scuff and dirty the back seats.
It's either this or those hideous vinyl covers that sit over the headrest and down…

its not going to stop scuffs. unless you take their shoes off, any grit or dirt is going to abrade the seatback.

ending up with a very utilitarian looking cover, very heavy duty, and with some added pouches, very functional. keep a first aid kit attached to that along with toddler essentials.

I only have one, a 5 yo, but he's a troublemaker. the kicking and hes also in a seat so he's high enough up that he rests his foot on either the controls or the window shade, so im constantly wiping that down.

the heavy cordura cover has blocked pretty much all of his tantrums.

I just clean and condition my leather. I use Chemical Guys and then afterwards about every 6 months, apply the Colourlock Leather Shield which you can buy a kit on Amazon for about $45. It's great stuff.
