Hi Kane,

You could try and look up Leather Resources, the are a part of McCoy Inc. I am not sure if they do cars, but its worth a try. Please tell them Sean referred you over to them, not that I gain anything other than helping a friendly company.

Excellent. I keep forgetting what's leather and what's vinyl

Why isn't this stickied?!

Zaino Leather in a Bottle is a great preventive product.

What about a sticky that will get the gist of this thread on only one page? I don't want to check through eight pages to see if my question has been asked already.
I was going to place an order for some Townsend Leather cleaning products. The question was...Does the "package" come with enough wipes to last, or should I buy some cleaner seperately?
Just don't want to pay another shipping fee if I need more later.

Thanks.

Here's the quick answer...package of wipes has 8, one should do the entire interior. You can slightly remoisten if it dries out 2/3's of the way or whatever. You shouldn't need any extra cleaner unless you choose that route instead of the wipes...

What's the word on Woolite for cleaning? The guys over at Autopia absolutely love Woolite (diluted 6:1 - water:Woolite) with a boar bristle brush for light scrubbing and damp rag wipedown followed by a leather treatment/conditioner.

Knowing that the resident expert on leather is HERE, I was hoping you could give this a thumbs up/down...

Thanks!

edit: I've used Lexol cleaner and conditioner so far, but not been terribly happy working with it... I find the cleaner difficult to remove, that it doesn't do a great job and the conditioner, no matter how much you buff, leaves a greasy feel. I'm up for trying something different.
