LEXOL!!! LEXOL!!!

I was at the same predicament. I tried Meguiar's and it left me with a glossy finish. I had to soap and wash my seats. Then I tried LEXOL. It works.

Don't use soap to wash your seats. Lexol makes a real nice leather cleaner to go along with there leather conditioner.

The only way to go is with Lexol. Make sure you use the Lexol leather cleaner first.

Fantastic!!.... Thanks for the quick replies... I will get it tomorrow... One more outstanding issue.....

I have been reading about exterior cleaning...

There are so many posts about this subject...

Should I get Zaino kit or go with Meguiar product line? I don't mind the effort of waxing, etc... Which product is better? I saw a picture of a zaino work at the following from this forum and I should say that I was impressed with Zaino...

i tried to find the lexol leather conditioner but couldn't find any in my area so i got zymol leather conditioner instead. just put it on yesterday and i'm very pleased with the outcome. the leather is not shiny and it looks just like how i first got the car. although it did make the seat a little more slippery but i kinda like it that way. i would recommend zymol from my own experience.

Thanks for the feedback... Today I got Lexol cleaner and conditioner from Pep Boys. I also got the wipes for both of these products....

I also ordered the kit from Zaino. We'll see... It will take a while to do all this but It is worth it.

Thanks again for the feedback.....

One last thing.. I saw Mothers at Pep Boys... is that a good product? they have various products in their product line...

I've used 303 for 5 years and my seats look like they did from the factory. Soft and supple like my baby's butt.

Where can I get that 303 stuff? Also any thoughts on Mothers products?

Thanks

The vendor links at the top of this forum sell 303.

i just lexol'd my car (cleaner+conditioner). it did not restore my matte finish. is there anyway i get get rid of the wrinkles in my leather?

ak2001

tumas I don't think you get rid of the wrinkles. Vets.. please correct me if I am wrong.

I also want to preserve the matte finish on the dashboard. Will 303 keep it matte or any is there any other product should I pick?

Thanks

303 will keep the radio and dash console looking "clean". Yes it will be matte not glossy but the real great thing about 303. Is I got in the car three weeks after using it, and the most ammount of work I needed to "re"clean my dash board wash a very quick wipe with a dry microfiber towel, basically I had to dust my car.. There was no dirt and the black components were just as black as when I had cleaned it weeks eairlier, just a little build up of dust that you could see in the sun..just a quick wipe down with a dry micro and it was as clean as new..highly reccomended...I am ordering a gallon...

along with a gallon of Lexol leather conditioned and 32 oz. of Lexall cleaner that stuff is amazing as well.. it is sold at horse farms up here as well, it's a great lethee cleaner and conditioner.

ak2001

Excellent RFreedom.. Your feedback is like music to my ears... I will get 303 as soon as possible.

Thanks
