I retired my lexol since I find it a tab oily for my taste. I have since switched to spinneybeck and I am sold! leatherz.com carries it. I have heard good words on Zaino but it is oily compare to spinneybeck but not as bad(IMO) as lexol.

As for leather cleaning, I mixed 1:6 ratio of woolite or dreft detergent and spot toothbrush high traffic area. This mixture is great for carpet too.

what i like to use and why

Poorboys Leather Stuff My top choice. Its a cleaner and conditioner in one. Smells perfect. Its also priced very nicely.

Zaino 2 parts. The cleaner and the conditioner. Smells perfect aswell. Only thing against these products is Price and its 2 steps.

Lexol blah smells wierd, its cheap. Sticky, not impressive. I use it on clients cars if the leather is real nasty and then go over it with Poorboys.
