Great work Barry, as always! I enjoyed it!
On a side note I see you used Lexol leather cleaner... obviously you like it enough to use it. I have tried it and it didnt work well for me. Whats your process?
 
Barry - looks sooo mcuh better :rockon:
Thanks Harry. I have 13.5v hours into it, so it should look better.:biggrin:

WOW awesome job sir!! it looks like you are keeping busy =)
Thank you. This one has me busy for sure.

Awesome job Barry! I have a feeling this lady will be VERY happy when she gets her SUV back! \m/
Thanks Connor. I am looking forward to seeing her reaction as well.

Thank you for th kind words. Yes the Lexol worked nicely for me. I sprayed it on and used a leather brush to scrub it in really well and get into all the crevaces. I then used a MF and had a bucket of warm water and soaked the MF then wringed it out to remove the excess product. I then followed woth the Lexol Conditioner.
 
Barry - I too have the Lexol leather cleaner and conditioner, but I found that the el-cheapo homebrew Woolite mixture seems to do a better job at removing dirt from the leather.. could be I use a toothbrush (soft bristles) instead of a larger leather brush. Still, you have a knack at cleaning that beastie!!:devil:
