    I was just wondering what my Audi brethren think of the different leather care products. I'm in the market for some and would appreciate your opinions and fav. products that you yourselves use.

    Thanks

    Personally I really like booyah leather cleaner and treatment, now called kevian clean. I use it on my shoes and seats.

    ^ there is also a cleaner you use first, from the same range.

    There is so little leather (just the center of the seats) and it rarely shows any wear that I am more concerned with the side bostlers (sp?). Mine have a couple of small cracks on the seat back at only 80,000 mi. The rest of the interior looks new. Lately I have been using 303 on everything and it seems to keep the vinyl soft.

    For a leather cleaner I like the AutoGlym posted above, for the leather conditionner I like Lexol.

    To clean and treat vinyl, my favorite is Spray Nine Once Over.

    I use 3 products from Lexol. Leather cleaner, leather conditioner and vinylex. It doesn't have a pretty smell like some products. It's all business.

    For the leather in my vehicles I use Blackfire products. There's other really good stuff like pinnacle, but I it's a bit too rich for my blood. Blackfire products aren't cheap either, tho.

    According to the MSDS, both the lexol and the autoglym have the same density, boiling point and colour, same physical properties and by products, same precautions. Makes me think they're identical.
