Leather Cleaning

Evening all,

I've found a set of red leathers in a scrappy that I will be picking up this week to replace my black leather. I want to give it a real deep clean.

I've always used gliptone cleaner and conditioner on my current one. But with this needing a good clean and I will be touching up a few areas i wanted to see what products you guys would advise or have used before.

adding a few pics of my e93 and e46

Wash with Gliptone and see how they come up first. Don't bother with the conditioner.

I’m using Gtechniq TriClean, and go over it a couple of times with clean warm water to get all the residue off.

I used Meguiar's All Purpose Cleaner (diluted(!) of course) and a soft brush to clean the leather, wiped with the cloth and simply applied their detailer in the end.

Pears soap is my go to for cleaning leather, it works a treat removing any shine and in bringing it back to life, all for about £1.

Afterwards, it's worth treating the leather with a conditioner.
