i have been using Simoniz Leather Cleaner & Conditioner... its does a good job on cleaning and conditoning, but its a little greasey and leaves a shiney look... I want a Matte look, like new Leather...

Whats the best product to use? I have been thinking about getting the "Leatherique" bottles... A friend told me and "Sonus"... what should i get?

 

Einszett Leathercare is an all in one and the Leather Master Strong Cleaner and Vital would be a good choice as well.

 

Simoniz on a Porsche einszett Leather Conditioner is a good product and leaves a nice flat finish. The scent is a little strong at first, but fades away after a few hours. On our high-end detail, we only use Zymol Treat. It gives a soft and satin sheen to the leather. It contains beef tallow as a primary ingredient so it has no chemical scents as it contains only natural ingredients. For leather that's older and needs lots of tlc, leatherique makes a great cleaner and conditioner. Hope this helps.

 

I use Lexol products. Not sure if this is good or not?

 

Lexol isn't bad for leather. I use to use it years ago. I stopped using it because it gave the leather a more sticky and tacky feel.

 

i use adams cleaner thats mildly diluted because when not diluted it can be so strong that it can lift your dye right off your leather, but adams should do the trick no matter what comes your way, it smells fairly good to, and it leaves a nice matte finish on your leather. I use adams conditioner to, again a great product.

 

will this product give a Flat finish?

PS: Before i use Zymol Leather Treat, i should use Zymol Leather Cleaner to remove the old dressing?

 

I think you would be very happy with our Satin Leather Cleaner and Satin Leather Polish. We spent three years perfecting this cleaner and conditioner. I have used many of the product listed already and would recommend only a few. Our goal was to fine a gentle cleaner that would not stain or dry the leather but remove stubborn stains. The conditioner gives a satin look, not to glossy not to flat. There is also no grease feel after initial application.

We are getting ready to launch a new improved gloss-it.com site. One of our promos will be 25% off the Satin leather cleaner and Satin Leather Polish. If you interested in buying the combo I will extend this discount before the launch. PM me !

 

Leather Master is a great product, and up until I got a hold of Gloss-it stuff I used Chemical Guys liquid leather as my leather dressing.But I service quite a few Ferrari's with dark leather and the gloss-it leather polish is the only product that will cover the door skin panels without multiple coats to eliminate streaking or a greasy look which is the mark of a cheapo detail.

 

i think i am going to give Zymol a try...

 

The Zymol is a great product, I use it all the time. Hide Food is also excellent.

No streaking? I gotta try it then, I am constantly going back and re-doing streaked door panels and such, esp with black interiors.

 

How does Hide Food compare to Zymol Treat John?

 

I LOVE the hide food, it really does a great job of bringing life to old leather. BUT, it must be applied plentifully, then it must sit out in the sun four hours. It leaves leather looking and feeling incredibly rich. It also smells very nice. I highly recommend. Here in Seattle, this is a service that we ONLY offer two weeks out of the year when it's NOT raining. HaHa, but it's a summer only service deal, while you could offer it in So. Cal all year round.

I had ordered Zymol Leather Cleaner and Leather Conditioner... I had the chance to clean my interior today... mmm great product... Cleaner works well and so does the Conditioner... A lot of dirt came on both the microfiber cloths and leather has a Satin finish now... but i can hardly tell the diffrence on how clean it look...

Question:- The Conditioner bottle said to "Heat" the Leather up first by using a Hair Dryer or leaving the car out in the sun for 15-20 mins... I dint do that, only used the Seat Heating on the front seats... How does Heating help? Is it a big deal?

PS: If you do use these product, make sure your Windows are down and your door are open... these two seems to have a Strong & Toxic smell...
