What do you guys use to clean and condition your leather seats?
I haven't used anything else but Mothers leather cleaner and Mothers leather conditioning and my seats still look like new.

 

Hey wassap u in MTL? im in Laval for now.... I use Simoniz Leather cleaner/conditioner it does the job. Leave's the car with a nice smell. i will be trying Mothers soon and see wich one is better.

 

I just use meguiars leather cleaner. I love it and its a good price.

 

Soft scrub to clean it, meguars leather conditioner after wards

 

Lexol gets my vote

 

I have not found anything better then Meguiars products period. I use them on the inside and outside. I don't think there is one product of theirs that I do have in my garage. Use the cleaner first and the conditioner second. I do mine twice a month but I'm anal.

 

lexol cleaner and conditioner

 

Zaino...stuff is magic.

 

lexol

 

Lexol cleaner + conditioner. Has a funny smell but works just fine with me!

 

Meguiar's cleaner and mink oil.

 

Zaino smells great in my opinion...

 

Is the meguiars cleaner and conditioner all in one good?

 

I'm in Laval too! Where in laval are you?

 

Anything Meguiars is good. I do find the 2 stage products to be better though.

 

I just bought some Lexol to condidtion my seat but I havent actually done any of them yet. Does anyone know how often we need to condtition them?

 

I do it once a month.

 

i'm using the same stuff and i really love the GOLD Class quick wipe

 

Chomedey, describe ur tl man maybe i might have seen u around here.

 

I've been using a diluted solution of Woolite to clean the seats and then protecting them with 303 Aerospace Protectant. It's also good for the dash, door panels and centre console. Interior looks and smells almost brand new (car's over 4 years old)

 

it's a stock 2000 SSM with cross drilled rotors,always clean,lol,you?

 

Out of curiosity, what is wrong with the armor all leather wipes?

 

^^ ibelieve they harder the leather instead of making it softer...

 

is it possible to "overcondition leather" ... and is it bad to do that???

 

If you use too much cleaner, then yes, but too much conditioner, no.

 

thanks for the reply ... so what do u think my intervals should be ... i have cleaned my leather once in the last 15k miles and conditioned every two weeks ... its looking good, but i want it to stay that way... so should i continue what im doing??

 

Will normal leather cleaners remove dry blood or is there a special product/ technique to remove?

 

lexol

 

ME 2

 

no-bleach soft scrub to clean

 

I use Zymol cleaner, then Zymol conditioner. I do mine about once a month.

 

OK, how about I expand this thread a little more....

What do these products cost?
Where do you purchase them? Local retail or on-line.

I mean, I drive a TL, that doesn't mean I'm made out of money.

 

Try this. I used to be a Lexol and saddle soap fan myself until I gave this stuff a shot. It's called "Leather in a Bottle". After you clean the leather and condiion w/ this Your car will smell like you just bought new seats You can pretty much only get it online unless theres a Zaino retail seller around you.

walmart is your friend. If that fails, try target. If that fails, then your local auto store, i.i., pep boys, autozone, etc.

 

target will def have it , walmart should too....and if that fails autozone...other "auto stores" will rip you off usually!

 

Sorry to re-waken an "old" thread, but of all these products mentioned, do any of them leave a shiny or slippery residue on the seats? I don't want that at all, but am interested in something to keep the leather nice and new feeling. Products mentioned:

Simoniz Leather cleaner/conditioner
Meguiars leather cleaner
Lexol
Zaino
Zymol
(or others)

 

Zaino's "Leather in a Bottle" conditioner leaves no residue or shine. I can attest to that as most other products do. It's the easiest I have used to date. You simply rub on and let it sit and your done. Your car will smell like you just put in new leather seats. I love the stuff

 

None of the good products should. I use meguiars (and another brand i use for my couch at home..but cant remember the name off the top of my head) None leave a residue or shine. Just a nice soft feeling leather.

 

Cool thanks for the info, all.

 

No shiny left with Zymol. Just richer looking and softer.
