Per the suggestions posted in here, I bought some Zaino9/10 last week and applied it last nite -- AMAZING. I am most impressed with the job it did. The car smells like brand new leather and looks amazing. I purchased the car new in Oct, but the smell had faded so the Zaino provided a refreshing smell. Makes it feel all new again! Highly recommended! Thank for the suggestion.

Not at all, it's just black matte, like new car leather.

The new car smell is toxic, its not good for you. I heard on the news that the inside of a new car wouldn't pass the air standards for inside an office.

BMW stopped using most PBDE's a few years ago, so their new car smell is not toxic.

If I am not mistaken, that gal is either Jessica Alba or she looks 100% like Jessica Alba.

for one, don't think of the vegetable squash. it's not related. i don't know how to describe it, it's kind of a fruity and bubble gum smell. i really like the scent.

the scent is popular with a lot of different japanese air freshners, spencer brand probably being the most popular.

squash smell seems to be popular in japan overall. i once went into a bathroom, and they had this giant squash freshener sitting on the floor. think i got high in there because it was so overwhelming. and there's even a fanta drink that's squash!

i currently have a spencer refill cartridge sitting under my passenger seat. when it's new, i just poke holes through the plastic wrap. reason being, is the smell is very strong when new. when it becomes weaker, i then cut the plastic wrap in half, with the cartridge half exposed. when it becomes weaker again, i remove the plastic wrap fully.



btw, some asian shops, asian supermarkets, and tuner shops should have it. back in the day, super autobacs in socal sold the refill cartridges for a really good price and i'd stock up. now it's the same as most places.

They are CRAZY good. And they last a long time. I put one under each front seat about every 2 months.
Hey just wanted to let you know that you sold me on this as well. I just ordered New Leather earlier today and looking forward to this.

Thanks

Any further suggestions/tips on wafers placements?
