Hi there
Put plenty on:
Buff to leave a beautifull lustre:
Unlike other products I have tried this one really softens the leather noticably and is a cleaner and conditioner in one.

You and me both Dai. The leather's so cracked in my car it's a miracle the covers haven't split.

I tend to use Collonite Saphirre leather wax really good stuff, cleans and protects the leather, other good products I have tried are the croftgate leather oil and Gliptone cleaner and conditioner, the Crofgate oil is good but give it a chance to soakinto the leather and drie before sitting on it lol

I wondered how long it would be before you started your 'upgrades'

apart from my Blueybling to distinguish my coop from the others, I've left it standard. And intend to keep it that way ;)
