11142 Leather Care 16oz

Great product. Easy to apply and buff off. Don't know about claim of duration. Will have to wait and see.

Now that Lexol leather conditioner has been reformulated for the worse, this Griot’s Garage leather care is a good replacement. One of my cars is 30 years old and has semi-aniline ‘Nappa’ leather seats, the other is much newer and has the coated ‘Dakota’ leather common today. On Nappa leather, this product is absorbed well, keeps the leather pliable and soft, and with a gentle buffing, just moderately shiny. On coated Dakota leather, like any other leather care product, it isn’t really absorbed but does clean the surface coating and gives it a nice sheen. Used sparingly and buffed after drying, it doesn’t leave a sticky residue and will not leave your seats slick or slippery either. Quite a number of reviews here bemoan an unpleasant ‘chemical smell’, while an equal number say this product smells great. I’m with the ‘smells great’ crowd; but this is a highly subjective judgment. Some people love the taste of cilantro; some people loathe it. You’ll need to make up your own mind; but to me, this has the aroma of new leather. At under ten bucks for a 16 ounce container, it’s a bargain. This is easily enough to keep the seats on a pair of 2-door coupes nicely conditioned for a year.

Wow this stuff really works. I bought a used leather recliner and the previous owner Febrezed the hell out of it. The Griots restored the leather smell and softened up the leather. A little goes a long way too. I still have a lot left.

My favourite leather care product,

Great on my two Harley seats and my two leather jackets! Great product!
