Leather Cleaner & Conditioner D180 - anyone tried it ?
It depends on the leather you apply it to, how thick you apply it, how long you leave it, and whether or not you follow up with a dry towel to buff off excess.
In other words, it's pretty versatile and you can usually obtain the level of gloss you want (or don't want) based on your application process.
Oh, it lasts a long time too... I've been pulling from the same gallon for over a year.

Well, in my experience, that's how it has worked for me. Try a test spot as usual before doing a large area and see what works for you.
I like it, use it whenever I get a car with leather. And Mark is right! This stuff lasts forever! I dont do many cars and am still using the sample I got so I still have a whole gallon I havent even had the chance to use! Any high volume detailers want it?
I've used it for a while now. Usually after a thorough cleaning with APC. My description of it's finish would NOT be glossy. I think of the old Armor All finish that was "glossy"!! This product does add a little color to the leather and while wiping it in appears to moisten. After a follow-up wipe down I'd categorize the finish as "matte". Multiple applications may give you a gloss, I haven't tried that.
I use it in my shop on 95% of all leather. I think it's a great product. When I use it, I first steam clean the leather. While it's still hot (and dry), I apply the conditioner. This allows better absorption and leaves the leather looking and feeling very nice.
