Leather Conditioning

[Steve]

I just gave the seats a good go over with Autoglym leather conditioner

Wow.. the smell from the leather is awesome... smells like a new car inside!

IS the Autoglym Conditioner any good?

anything better on the market?

I bought some of the Zymol stuff after a recommendation on here (think it was Claire) and that's pretty good too - haven't tried the Autoglym conditioner yet so can't do a one to one comparison though mate, have got some in the shed so might give it a dabble over the weekend

I used Autpglym on mine (black leather) and was unimpressed - it dried leaving loats of white reidue in the grain.

Asked around at work and a guy into old Jags put me onto Gliptone - it is fantastic - http://www.liquidleather.com/ - look there for info.

The smell is great IMO and it really does soften the leather up nicely.

is there or could there be any consequences in getting any of these products on the escaine bits ?

I don't think the Autoglym stuff it all that good, better than nothing though. Seems to leave the seats a bit greasy for a while.

yeah i did notice that colin.. but thats sort of good.. but not for the passenger! :)

but i dont think they have been treated before so I wanted to start getting them soft.. then look for a real ace brand and one summers day blitz the car

too cold today to do much!

Nice one, think there's a deal on that over in Gold - had forgotten about this one so will have to try some now :)

I was very unimpressed with Autoglym - found Gliptone much better.

Tried Gliptone in the past as the outlet was in Manchester,very handy. Tried Zymol & found it "top dog". It returns my leather to its origonal black and does not leave any white marks. Yes it may cost a bit more but the finish is well worth it.The leather also retains its "new" finish for longer than any other products I have tried. :)
