copperhead Posted September 28, 2009 Report Share Posted September 28, 2009 What's some good stuff to keep leather in good shape, and keep it from ever cracking? Also, where can I find it? I'm new to this whole leather thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cordell Posted September 28, 2009 Report Share Posted September 28, 2009 There's prabably better stuff out there, but the two part Meguiars cleaner and conditioner have worked fine for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrianZ06 Posted September 30, 2009 Report Share Posted September 30, 2009 The Mequiars was actually recommended to me... that's what I use. I use this also.Seems to do a good job. I wonder how it compares to Leatherique. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1fynz Posted September 30, 2009 Report Share Posted September 30, 2009 Leatherique Tutorial This! I didn't realize the steering wheel in our Audi wasn't supposed to be shiny. It has a very nice matte finish now, and the dirt that leatherique pulled from the steering wheel alone was enough to turn the water in a 5 gallon bucket almost black. Let alone the seats.

Main3s Posted October 2, 2009 Report Share Posted October 2, 2009 I've used saddel soap on my seats before using a soft brush to work it in. I'll have to try the leatherique though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nitrousbird Posted November 22, 2009 Report Share Posted November 22, 2009 You don't want to add creamy products that will eventually clog the pores of the leather. If your leather has a shiny look to it, then it needs to be stripped of all of the oils, salt, sweat, dirt, and creamy conditioners. Leather in its natural state has a matte finish. Your absolute best bet is an all-natural product like Leatherique. It's a two-part system...Rejuvenator and Prestine Clean. The Rejuvenator peforms a deep conditioning and cleaning of the leather over an 8-24 hour period (it actually lifts the dirt, oils, salt from the pores of the leather), and then you use the Prestine Clean to remove the residue and grime. Once it's complete you will be left with a soft and supple leather that is completely clean and deeply conditioned. A full treatment is recommended twice per year, and you can use the Prestine Clean as an all-in-one (cleaner, conditioner, protectant) during your maintenance cleaning throughout the year. Here's more information and a tutorial I wrote on how to use it: Leatherique Tutorial Think this stuff would work on a leather couch? Ours is light tan, and getting grimey from where we sit a lot. I used a magic eraser on a small spot, which cleaned out all the dirt, but was hard on the leather. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
