Cleaning cream leather
Hi All,
My 520D comes with cream leather and I think it needs a good clean.. Can any helpful soul recommend some good cleaning products that you may have tried.. |

Gliptone is the only thing, really. The "wetwipe" type things are good for a quick wipe as jeans mark the oyster leather noticeably, but Gliptone brings it back to new. You need the cleaner and the conditioner and you can pick both up on eBay for about a score.

Has Gliptone changed these days? When I last tried it I couldn't stand the smell, to put it bluntly it was scented like a public toilet, to my nose.

I'm not a big Gliptone fan if I'm honest. Take a look at the cleaners available from with LTT, Furtniture Clinic or my current favourite, Dr Leather. The Dr Leather come as leather wipes and do a great ob on removing jean die and dirt that has built up. They are also then easy to use on an ongoing basis to stop the dirt building up.
If jean dye is a big issue, then LTT do a jean dye removal kit which I've had good success with too. |
