    Re: leather cleaner

    i absolutely love the 2 step system with the aloe cleaner and aloe conditioner..its really gentle on the leather and leaves an awesome look..i want to try the D-Line leather cleaner/conditioner...i heard it leaves a super glossy look, and i just happen to like that =D

    I only do my seats once every few months however I am very gentle on them and I don't think they are really leather. I have a Vue with the cloth inserts and faux leather sides.

    Appaenty they have change the formula in the MEG creme conditioner cleaner since
    I last bought some a couple of years year or ago ( no leather int vehicle here for awhile ). The older stuff was much thicker and really seemed to do a better job on rejuvenating the leather than the newer thinner formula ( reformulated or "watered down " ) .

    I've never seen the megs 2 step in stores so I ordered it from ADS. The cleaner seems to clean much better than the zymol I posted above. The conditioner seems to leave the leather much more shiny than the zymol conditioner so it looks a lot better if that's what you're going for.

    I think maybe the zymol conditioner lasts a little longer though. It just feels "softer" longer I guess is how to describe it.

    I like the spray application of the zymol cleaner, but the megs stuff definitely cleans better for me.

    Two weeks ago I used Meg's Gold Class Leather cleaner/conditioner. Seemed to work well for me. Smells great too!

    That depends on weather conditions !
    I work the cleaner in with an Even coat applicator and remove it with a terry towel.
    After i worked in the conditioner i let it soak in overnight , the following day i buff with a terry towel and go over it with some Last touch & a microfibre !

    Only place I can find the zymol cleaner and zymol conditioner is Target. Never seen it at Wal-mart or the auto parts places.

    TBH, I'm really torn about the product. It leaves the leather in one of my cars with an artificial-looking shine and greasy feeling, but works wonders in my other car when used with a brush for agitation/scrubbing. I hate the fact that I can't get the product to come out of the cap that is supplied - I always remove the cap and squeeze it out the open top...I would much prefer that the product was a little bit thinner so that I could just squeeze the bottle and go.
    It smells nice and clean to me, though my fiancee says it smells like moldy bread.

    How have you liked the Zymol leather products? I'm liking one of their waxes, so I may try the leather care line too...

    Re: leather cleaner

    I use a soft brush to remove any product that gets stuck in the perforated section.
    Just let it dry and then you can easily remove it that way !

    Here's the result after cleaning and conditioning the leather seats in my Alfa Romeo 166.


    AFTER LEATHER CLEANER ( 1 application)



    AFTER CONDITIONER (1 application, quite shiny but once the leather absorbs the conditioner the shine disappears )

    EXTRA TIP : try to make sure the leather is warm before applying the conditioner,this helps the leather to absorbe the conditioner because then the pores off the hide are open !

    How did you do the perforated leather?
    I can't for the life of me keep the cream out of the perforations on my seat so I stopped cleaning that section, making it gross.
