Default High End Leather Cleaners/Conditioners

Ok, so I'm a huge fan of soft supple leather. Just as mike(calgarydetail), my leather is always conditioned in my vehicles. Anyways, today I tested two high end cleaners and conditioners side by side. I used Connolly Hide Care Cleaner and Conditioner on one half of the leather, and the zaino leather cleaner and the zaino z10 conditioner on the other. Now connollys conditioner, for anyone who doesn't know about it or hasn't tried is, is not only hard to apply, but it coldn't even come CLOSE to the zaino. The z10 is easy to apply, and smells like leather...compared to the connollys that smells more like shoe polish! Anyways, now i have to order more leatherique and give that a go. I have a feeling it might be the best out there, but I haven't yet tested it side by side! I just thought I'd throw it out there.

Agree. Lexol Conditioner is AMAZING! Connelly Hide care is fantastic as well. Some of their products are a tad rich for coated leather.

:| I just made a $350+ order from Chris and there wasn't a single interior product!

I want to see pictures, that's quite the order there buddy.

As for the leather cleaner/conditioners, I was going to purchase leatherique but Chris recommended Lexol, I've tried it on a few vehicles and on my own vehilce and it works great. I'm pleaed with it, I still wouldn't mind purchasing leatherique though.

I'm very interested on this topic and look forward to the full revivew
