In everybody's opinion what is the best leather cleaner and conditioner on the market? Also what do the pro's use?

Thanks for all the great information
 
I really like lexols cleaner, i either use woolite water mixture, lexol, or pristine clean by leatherique for cleaning. for conditioner you can't go wrong with lexol leatherique or hi temps two in one.



otc try duragloss, they make three good leather care products.
 
I haven't used any other product so cant say ones better than the other but I use z9cleaner and z10conditioner. Cleans really well and smells great.
 
Its not the most cost effective, but having tried CG, Smart, and Armorall, I've found Z9/Z10 to be the best combo. As with all Zaino products, it offers what I consider a very refined look. Not too oily, just right.
 
Clean with Woolite/Water 6:1, condition with 4* Leather Conditioner. EXCELLENT product.



Lightly work into the leather, walk away. Clears out on it's own and requires no buffing.
 
honestly for me it depends on how dirty the leather is. I had to use APC 10:1 on a Sienna and scrub with a Medium toothbrush just to get the dirt off. After that was done, I had to do it again.



On a normal day though, I use Lexol's shampoo and follow up with their conditioner.



as for a conditioner, I realllllllllly like the Mother's leather conditioner. It's like a cream, and smells fantastic. My clients ALWAYS comment on how nice the car smells.
 
Leatherique works best for me. Really like their products. Was using Lexol.

I've heard the Leather Master products are pretty good.
 
I just got the Zaino Z9 and Z10 and love it. DEFINITELY lives up to it's name of Leather In A Bottle. I've used Lexol in the past (eh) and Leatherique. Leatherique is definitely top quality and does an excellent job (used it on the black leather interior of my 1994 325is).



I wanted to try the Zaino on my 2 1/2 month old 335i-I wanted to see if I could get the new car smell re-freshed (which it did) and the interior of my car is saddle brown and I didn't want to use something as intensive as Leatherique at this point. Plus I understand that the Leatherique could darken my leather.



But the Zaino is great stuff. Matte finish-unlike Lexol-and smells just like leather too! Initially it had a "chemically" smell to it but after a couple of hours smelled awesome.
 
I own a Lexus and use the Lexus provided leather cleaner and conditioning products. I have never seen anything work so well. I would recommend them wholeheartedly for any leather.



Smells nice too!
 
Gliptone doesn't seem to be at all popular on this site, but I found it to be much better than Lexol or Leatherique. It's very easy to use. For the cleaner it's just damp cloth, apply and then damp cloth. The conditioner is almost wipe on and leave it (light buffing is suggested after 5 minutes, but it seems to absorb immediately because very little is left on the surface after 5 minutes). It smells great and really softens the leather.

+1 Me too. It sure smells better than the others and doesn't leave an oily film. My leather is buttery soft and looks like new.
