what do you guys use to prevent the leather seats from wrinkling so quik.

what brand?

good or not?

 

I would like to know too... Also, is there anything to get the wrinkles out?

 

lexol leather conditioner

303 protectant

 

does it takes some wrinkles away or does it prevents it?

assuming you can get it at any local auto store?

 

Yea i use lexol too. Probably should use it more often then i actually do...but yea it works well

 

I use meguiars gold class. Works great so far but I haven't had the car long enough to tell ya really...

 

they sell the meguires gold class conditioner/protectant($7.99), and lexol ($8.99) at pep-boys. i went there today to get lexol, but ended up getting the meguires. i wanted something to maintain the seats and most importantly NOT leave behind a shiny, glossy look. i prefer the "rubber" looking leather like it is from factory.

i sprayed it on a clean cotton rag and rubbed it over the bottom portion of the two front seats. wiped it off with a dry rag.. the seats were a little slick, the leather (black) was a little darker and it concealed the wrinkles a little, but not much at all. My tsx is only about a month old, so the seats don't have many wrinkles anyway. i personally don't like putting these conditioners and cleaners on the seats, because they make the leather look shiny, but i rather have the seats look glossy now rather then cracked down the line.

 

meguires or lexol... ? that is the quetions..

 

I'm interested in this also. I've got Zaino's "Leather in a Bottle" and also Zaino's "Leather Soft Spray Cleaner." Haven't used either one yet. It came with a Zaino kit I bought. Is it any good or should I forget about it and get Lexol instead?

 

I've got these and they work GREAT!!!! Tried everything but the 303 stuff and the Zaino is much easier to work with.

 

I have the Zaino stuff as well and it is awesome. Have you even opened the leather in a bottle yet?? That stuff will keep the leather smell in your car for years to come. And it wipes away clean, no residue, no slippin...

 

A third user of the Zaino system. Works well, smells good, but damn expensive...

 

Haha, no I didn't open the bottle until you posted that. Damn, it smells good!

OK, good to know it's a quality product, just like the Zaino exterior stuff. Thanks.

 

I use Meguirs...love the stuff

 

i went to auto zones tonight... the guy said "eh lexol? yeah i know what that is... it's mainly used for jags, and mercede's, do you drive one of those? it's usually 16 a bottle" he said it like i couldn't afford it... that moron.. 16 bucks that can protect leather seats for a 30 grand car is good enough.. don't bust out the jag and benz on me.. stupid people these days.. no business from me for them.

 

I use Zymol leather conditioner. I had my car for almost a year and there's plenty of wrinkles and this was my first time conditioning it. I find that it does a good job, doesn't slip, or leave residue, but it's a bit shiney. However, it went away after I sat on it for a while. It did elimanate some fine wrinkles and you can tell it looks better than before. Oh yea, it smells good too! Also kinda pricey at almost $10.

 

I used to use a true leather cleaner, but today I decided to use 303 on my seats instead, and they look awesome. I don't know how it will hold up in the long run, but I was extremely impressed. I would say that 80% of my interior is currently covered in 303

 

and now your butt has a nice reflective sheen?

 

I used Meguires Gold Class Leather Protectant on my TSX the first week I had it. I noticed it softened up the leather quite a bit and made it feel alot smoother. It was pretty firm and "dry" when I took delivery.

After Meguires it felt like my $3,000 leather jacket. Extremely soft, smooth, and silky. Thats just on the door and center console arm rests. It seems like the seats are going to take a bit more to soften up.

I followed that with the Lexol conditioner wipes. I coated everything pretty well, then wiped off the excess with a t shirt. In my opinion the Meguires worked alot better at softening the leather.

I was told with both products do not apply them to the stitching or fabrics.

The Meguires left no glossy or oily film or residue. The Lexol left a minimal sheen. Both are great products. I think I'll use the Meguires once a month at the most, since it takes a bit more time to apply and wipe off. I'll just touch up every once in a while with the Lexol wipes.

I also tried the Meguires wipes which were basically like Armor All. They left a very oily residue, that had to be wiped down and off, so they wouldnt soak into my clothing later. I wouldnt reccomend those unless that is the look you want and have time to wipe them down later. If it gets on your door plastic it also has the armor all effect.

 

so i am guessing Lexo Meguire and Zeino are all good

none of you had bad experience with it anyway right

i think i'll buy Lexol conditioner and cleaner

 

pickup a can of Stoner Invisiglass also, works wonders on your inside windows

 

Yes in deed! Actually, there was nothing there. I wore jeans that day.

 

Lexol

 

Lexol in the car (cleaner and conditioner and wipes for touch-ups), and Lexol also for the leather couch and loveseat in the house (makes butter-soft leathe even softer -- it's great stuff).

My dad introduced me to this stuff. IT IS INCREDIBLE!!!

 

 

I use seats, typically made of ... leather. Not boots of Spanish leather,
but like a chair sort of arrangement for sitting inside a car.

I tried using baseball warm-up jackets for leather seats, but that didn't work out, nor did using bags of week-old camel slobber. So, now it's back to using leather seats for leather seats.

I so much want to be helpful ...

 

^^ :blaze:

 

 

I think you need to share with us whatever you are on... puff puff pass!

 

I agree with several others, the Lexol works great on the leather seats, as does Tanner's Preserve. As far as the glass goes you can also try Castle Window Cleaner.

 

Thanks to the advise I got from this site, I use Lexol cleaner and conditioner as well. I am loving it.

I do notice that Lexol conditioner is actually glycerin (a.k.a. hand lotion).

 

Dumb question. I am allergic to a lot of handlotions and perfumes. Does Lexol smell? If so, like what?

 

I am no dermatologist but I think most people are only alergic to the scented ingredients in hand lotion. I don't smell anything in Lexol but you may want to try it out on your skin before applying it to your seats.

 

Right, which is why I asked about the smell. Lavender just kills me. Thanks, I'll go sniff leather products in stores and hope I don't get arrested as a perv!!!

 

Just got the car one week ago. I used the Macguire's stuff (spelling) and it leaves the seats slights oily looking on the black leather but you need to expect that since its apparently leaving some oils and stuff to condition the hide. Seems okay - I think I'll ask these Italian leather furniture people....maybe they can recommend something else.

 

lexol cleaner and conditioner.

 

I've used Zaino for over a year. It keeps a really nice smell in the car; however, I found it does very little to keep the seats from wrinkling/becoming marked.

I used Lexol in an A6 my family had. That one was even less noticeable. The smell dissipated fast, and the effect wasn't present at all.

 

i use lexol but to tell you the truth I think am going to try something else I have plenty of wrinkles on my front driver side, man I wish I would've use the zaino stuff. I also have tried 303 on the leather but it seems to wear off really quickly.

 

Does that "Stoner Invisiglass" work on tinted windows, or will it mess up the tint?
