I have heard good things about the Zaino's "Leather in a Bottle" product in other threads, but I would like to know the concensus on this one too.

Another "Zaino" leather in a bottle fan. It really conditions the leather nicely (without feeling "greasy"). It's the only one I've found that actually aproximates the smell of real leather.

I like Meguiars products in general too, so I'll probably go with their leather cleaners/conditioners.

The first weekend I had the car was Easter, so I took my family to the in-laws to show the car off. My wife was in the passenger seat, and two teenage kids in the back. A couple days later, I looked in the back seat, and saw some Easter chocolate smeared into the seat my son was sitting in... :angry: I just used an old tee shirt dampened with water, and the chocolate came right off - except for what was stuck in the leather perforations. I had to use a toothpick inside the tee shirt to get the chocolate out of the perforation holes.

So, the question is, when using the leather conditioners and cleaners, what happens with the perforation holes (GT leather only)? Seems like it would be impossible to wipe it all off... :scratch:

I used the meguiars leather wipes. Surprisingly they went a long way. One wipe work for almost both front seats.

Meguires here too, It smells good and goes on easy, not greasy. I usually do mine about 4 times a year.

I have a friend with Lexol and I picked the Meguires to see how good it does. I have question about the vinyl surfaces of the seats. I know the fronts are leather but everything else is vinyl. Do you go ahead and apply the leather conditioner to the vinyl surfaces or do you switch to a vinyl/rubber spray?

I like the Meguiar's. I have them in the wipes so I can quickly and evenly wipe it on.

Without a doubt, the best leather care is Apple Polishes :worship:
