Leather care

Post by Sarah »

Hello,

Can any one recommend any good leather care for the Roc? Thinking of giving it a good interior clean this weekend and was trying to find out what product would be best for the seats!

I was looking at the Autoglym one in Halfords but not sure how good this is? :shrug:

Personally I use Gliptone on mine, here's a linky http://www.elitecarcare.co.uk/gliptone- ... Path=26_34

Once cleaned I tend to put a coating of this on :-

If you read up on these things you'll find various discussion about the type of coating used on modern seats and how it doesn't actually allow conditioners to soak in in the traditional way. I've never had any issues from using a thin coating plus it smells nice as well. :yummy:

I bought my dad a bottle of this stuff for his Merc and he's really impressed with it.
