Anyone know anything about the leather restore/color changing stuff u see round on the net. They have some good b4 and after shots but im just a little bit suss on whether they actually work or not...


i imagine it'd be fine, but the leather has to be prepped, most leather is already dyed anyway.

yeah i think i rather the meguires gold class rich leather cleaner/conditioner over the auto glym leather cleaner and auto glym leather care


the auto glym doesnt feel like it is doing anything, jsut feels like you use water or something

There is a product on ebay called Gliptone. Sells for $40 @ a buy it now price, comes in two bottles, one is a cleaner and the other is a conditioner, worked a treat on my NL, keeps the leather soft and doesn't dry like Armoral.

This product works into the tight spots too, but not to be used on suede or carpet.

what did you use to get the seats clean with the products. did you use a shoe polish brush or scrubbing brush?
