Its their cleaner/conditioner. I was not happy with this product. It does not have a good smell, did not leave the leather looking "conditioned" and then left some sort of white residue on some of the surfaces?



did i do something wrong? not put it on thick enough? The bottle said to wipe off, but when i was done there really wasnt anything to wipe off. I was happier with lexol conditioner before.



I've heard of people talk about all these leather products, but I dont seem to see a definitive "best" or favorite.
 
I don't care for the cleaner/conditioner either. It has never lived up to my expectations. If you want to stick with Meg's products the Gold Class Rich Leather Spray is a superior product. There are other companies that also make great leather care products though.
 
I think the Megs Rich Aloe Conditioner is pretty decent as long as you allow it to soak in and dry. Zaino Z10 gets quite a bit of raves especially for smell
 
maybe ill try the Z9/Z10. is there a place to buy besides zainobros.com? or is there another product that isnt 10/8oz . chemical guys is around $25/gallon for their conditioner.
 
this might sound odd, but i like to use Coach leather conditioiner(moisturizer), as in Coach handbags. i have a bottle of the stuff and it really seems to give the leather life again. you can let it soak for 10 minutes and buff off if the leather is a bit dried out. in the morning you'll be pleasantly surprised how nice the leather feels. give it a shot if you have a coach store near you. it only costs $8 for about 6-8oz, can't remember exactly the size. i also use it on my belts, what it was bought for :lol
 
Lexol has always been 100% satisfactory in my applications...no complaints at all. Just got a bottle of the spray TW Cleaner/Conditioner....will try this evening.
 
I thought i had a bad bottle of Gold class leather conditioner, i guess it really does suck. When used it on my black leather it didnt seem to do anything. I got Lexol from proper auto care last week and it is awesome. If theres a pep boys in your area, they should carry it.
 
i went to the store and got lexol cleaner and lexol conditioner. got a 12oz thing of 303 as well. disaster was averted. i'm definitely a lexol fan. But the cool smell of the Z10 sounds cool. Maybe i will pick up some Z10 for my car but stick to lexol for everyone elses. :)
 
I tried the TW spray cleaner/conditioner last night. The odor instantly reminded me Cutter's "Aloe" bug spray.



The TW goes on easy, it's less viscous than Lexol and is easy to work with. However, I witnessed little change in the condition of the leather - - for better or worse. I rubbed it out this morning and it didn't appear I had made any application whatsoever. I was a little mystified.



I will qualify this by saying the leather I applied it to was not dirty and in excellent/as new condition. Perhaps dirtied or older leather would show more improvement.

I've always been a lexol guy myself. I figure that's all they make, that's what they specialize in, and they've been in business for years so they must know what they're doing. Not to mention they're reasonably priced.
 
I did the Leatherique process to my Caddy last week (not sure I used enough oil) but it is hands down the best stuff I have ever used on leather. I plan on doing my Deville this weekend.

My sister in-law worked at coach for awhile and said people bought it all the time for their cars. I'll have to pick some up. My wife is loopy for their purses, so she'd probably be thrilled if I did her leather with this stuff.
