Ebized Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 Any good tips out there? Having read a while back of the hassle using the cream conditioners that fill the thousands of holes, I was hoping to find something more suitable. Quote
GIXXERUK Posted July 12, 2008 Posted July 12, 2008 Ive tried a lot of different leather cleaners and conditioners and without a doubt i've found that Gliptone cleanner and conditioner is the best, i do as a lot of detailers do and i hang a hairdryer on the rear view mirror for 15 - 20 mins and close the doors, this softens the leather and opens the pores, i have had no problems with holes in the seats as Gliptone is a liquid and gets absorbed fully unlike waxes that i've used buff it and it leaves a nice matt feel to the leather An added bonus is that it only approx a tenner for both the conditioner and cleaner Quote
