Hey Everybody!

I want to keep my seats in the s2k looking like new using a cleaner that wont make everything really shiny! I bought some zymol leather cleaner and leather conditioner. Have you guys used this stuff? Is it any good?
THANKS

I've been using it for two years now and swear by it! Leather just loves the stuff.

I also use Zymol Seal Conditioner. Keeps the rubber happy.

Does it make your leather shinny or do they look the same as from the factory?

I will have to look for that. Do you mind if I ask why it is so great?

I just recently purchased my S, but I had been using the Zymol Leather cleaner/conditioner for about three years on my Acura CL-S. I thought it worked great. It restored the look of the seats without the "shiny" effect. It would take the worn look and creases out of the leather. The seats would always be slippery after the application, but they sure did look great! It's hard to tell if it will work for you or not, but my suggestion would be to give it a try.
I agree with wanabe. I have also used the shampoo for the last three years along with the Japon Carnauba wax. I think their products are great! I will most likely continue to use Zymol on my new S. The best place I have found online for Zymol products is autodetail.com. They have great prices and the service is incredible! That's what keeps me coming back. Hope this is helpful.

Zymol will also protect the leather against UV degradation (fading). I treat my seats to a zymol bath once a month in top down weather.

Hey shockwave667,
I'm so glad the Zymol worked out for you! It really does a good job at taking out the creases in the leather. Just watch out for the slipperiness when you take those corners fast! You might fly out of your seat! j/k
Zymol makes quality products and I have nothing but good things to say about them!
