An upholstry shop owner told me that none of the expensive internet products work as well as Lexol, which is inexpensive and available most everywhere. I sure wish I'd known this before I bought all that Leatherique product!

Hi,

You didn't make a mistake with Leatherique! I have used all the products out there at one time or another and nothing beats Leatherique. Lexol leaves so much crap (especially silicones) behind that it clogs the pores in the leather and leads to premature Drying and Hardening. I wouldn't use that stuff on a Dog Collar!...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99

Love the Leatherique.

Leatherique is all I use on my seats. It brought my 18 year old, neglected, hard-as-a-rock 928 seats back to life and ready for a re-dye. It keeps the Boxster seats clean and soft with no residue at all.

I have read recently that a very good leather care product is Color Plus Leather Care Soffener (spelled correctly!). They have a web-site www.colorplus.com.

leatherique is not cheap! a 26 ounce bottle (should last 20 years) with shipping is almost $40!
