I found a pleasant benefit from the Lexol conditioner as well. You can use this stuff on the day of a track event and it actually make the seat stickier to keep you in place. I don't meen sticky like adhesive or spilled juice but it adds enough moisture to keep you from sliding around.

 

Z-10 here as well on red seats and no lifting of dye on mine. Love the smell too.

 

Another vote for Z-10 Leather in a Bottle. Used after the Z-9 leather cleaner.

 

Just finished Z9 cleaner and Z10 conditioner. Each caused a very light pink color to "lift" from the red leather. I used a white 100% cotton cloth for each. I love the smell of Z10 and the non-oily feel. I'll finish off the bottle for sure and probably try Lexol next.

 

I just finished using 303 Aerospace Protectant on the headlamp and foglamp lenses, mirror covers, dash, doors, leather steering wheel wrap, tail lamp lenses, rubber door seals, etc...

 

I use Lexol and really like it, easy to use and no glossy finish.

 

Griots garage has Leather Care and Leather rejuvinator, they work well and smell like leather. Something I find lacking in the Mustang.
2nd and 3rd choice would be 303 or armor all Leather care cream in brown bottle.

 

I use TurtleWax Brand leather conditioner. It seems to work pretty good.

 

+1 That stuff works great smells nice too but it's very oily. I want the shine with out the oily residue.

 

+1 on the 303 Aerospace Protectant Use it on my BSM vinyl stripes, rocker panel decal, tires, and will use it on clear bra (being installed Thur).

 

I use a furniture leather conditioner(forget the brand) but it comes in wipes. Same thing though, no residue, no shine. I have confederate blue leather couches and it never lifted the dye on them either. They look perfect after 5 years.

 

Zaino says that is for tires.
You use it on your interior?
Your interior looks nice but I would be a little hesitant to use tire stuff on my interior.

 

Yes, the title of the product does say 'Perfect Tire Gloss'. However, the porduct descripion says the following..
Use on all exterior rubber, tires, moldings, plastic trim, weatherstripping, underhood hoses and more.

Sal himself gave his blessings for the Z-16 to be safe to use on leather and all plastic interior pieces. Basically, the Z-16 is very versitle and not to be limited to what the product title reads.

 

It sounds like Z-16 is similar to 303 Aerospace Protectant. I use 303 on tires, rubber hoses, leather, vinyl, tonneau covers, plastic trim, weatherstripping, door seals, etc...

 

Thanks for the information, I will look into trying some

 

I'm sure they are similiar, 303 makes some good stuff as well.

It just boils down to what smell you like better. Z-16 smells like berries.



No problem! I'm sure you'll be happy with either 303 or Zaino for that 'all around' protection.

 

I don't know about that stuff, I absolutely HATE anything that remotely changes the gloss/finish of any piece in a car's interior.

 

Woah nelly...I have used the Z16 on my tires before and IMHO I'd never want to use it on my leather. Your photos look a touch on the shiny side to me. I'm sure it won't hurt the leather, but my brain just screams when I think of tire shine on leather.

The Z10 has served me well for many many years. Soaks right in, leather looks just like new, matte finish and that new car smell. I love it.

 

For in between the show sessions, I've gotta add one for the Armor All wipes and, if you can find it, their low gloss stuff. Goes on and you can hardly tell its been "armored-all". Learned that lesson when my not-yet wife did the armor-all-everything in her T/A. She had to jam on the brakes and her mother (tiny woman) slide right out from under the seatbelt.........

 

Thats not me silly Any pics of my car interiors a few years later look exactly like they did on the day I got it.
