Wow. My Leather Is Soft Now! :d
 

Alright, before I tell you what I used, I'll tell you what I've used BEFORE this:

Meguire's gold class leather cleaner conditioner... blah. Yeah, it doesn't leave the leather greasy, but it doesn't really like to 'absorb' into the leather either. Helped, but wasn't impressed.

Eagle 1 Leather Conditioner: It moisturized better than mequire's, but it left everything greasy feeling, which kinda sucked. Easy to apply.

Blue Magic Leather Wipes: AVOID AVOID AVOID! It took off a bunch of 'grey' on my steering wheel and I now have a steering wheel with an ugly brown spot.

Alright, this stuff, I've been WAY impressed with their wax so I've been wanting to try their leather products out for a while:

ZYMOL LEATHER CLEANER SPRAY AND LEATHER CONDITIONING CREAM

HOLY CRAP! My leather is SOOOOOO soft now. I cleaned all the leather (it wasn't very dirty), then let my car sit out in the sun to warm everything up, and applied the cream. Wow. Worked alright. The ingrediants are all natural. Anyway, I was pretty impressed.

BUT TODAY, 3 DAYS LATER, ITS SOOOO SOFT! :D I can't believe it! :D!

You guys should try some! IT RULES!

Rob-

Where did you get this stuff? All Subaru leather tends to get that tough feeling after a while. I would be very intersted to try some.

TARGET! :D I didn't know Zymol even MADE leather products and I saw some there... and MAN! I can't believe what a difference it made! I used about 1/3rd of the bottle on my seats (front and back), wheel, and shifter (and ebrake) handle. Next time I'm going to just SLATHER the seats with it and cover it with a garbage bag so it REALLY soaks in. But yeah go for it. 7 bucks for hte cleaner, 7 bucks for the conditioning cream.

I'll have to try it
 

Did it help to fix any cracking?

I've only used Armor All leather wipes and Meguires. I find the same thing with the Meguires. The AA wipes clean the leather nice if dirty but do nothing to make it softer, only more slippery.

Thanks for the tip. I will give it a try. I have some leather that I have been working on for quite a while. I have used Lexol as well, and it makes the leather feel greasy. I will try it the Zymol and give my impression as well. :)

You guys will love it! :D

You sound way to happy about your soft leather Rob. Pretty soon you'll be telling us you were rolling around naked on it. :eek:

My leather is nice and soft already. My steering wheel looks like crap, but the rest of the interior is nice. I just wish I could afford to get my clear coat stripped and re-done.

The Zymol that Rob discussed is available in Pep Boys and NAPA around northern DE.

Thanks Rob, I'll be checking it out this weekend.

Soft leather WOOHOO!

Spread it on, and let is soak in, ...then buff it off.

Do you like it, and how does it work? What is the price on that product? :)

Re: good stuff
 

i heard that stuff smells like horsesh*t. true?

its great
 

its the only thing Jaguar reccomends
Ive been using it for over 10 yrs, love it.
It has a distinct smell, but nothing really bad in my opinion.
Think its about $10-13 for a small jar of it.
