i'm not sure on the name, but I would bet my CC that autoglym do a product

nb: any comments on the betting of ones CC should be taken with a large dose of salt. You'll have to prise the keys from my fingers before you get a go in mine.

Indeed Autoglym do a product called - "leather care cream" (marketing guys must have taken months to think of that one). I have found it very good but don't shell out for it from Halfords or the like.......find your local Autoglym wholesaler, works out a lot cheaper.

We don't seem to have Autoglym here in Australia (haven't seen it that is) but I use a Maguires product from the US. Huge range of products and all great quality.

i've been doing it for a few years rob but as you say it does save a fortune

Thanks for that DPH will look into it! I'm in Melbourne (Victoria) so will make contact with the NSW office to see if they have a distributor here.

Frosty - if you can't get hold of Autoglym in Melbourne then give Glen Thomson a ring on 03 9580 7266 and ask for Autosmart Leather Supplement. Tell him I gave you his number and I'm sure he'll see you right. It is quite new in the market and is getting rave reviews from the trade. Main difference to Autoglym is that their's is a top dressing - this is a feed to keep leather conditioned. It will also help prevent discoloration from sunlight. Hope you get sorted out.

how about some free samples for forum members to see if it's as good as you say it is

a good cleaner for leather is armourall (think thats right) dashboard wipes.

I know it sounds weird but I have used them a couple of times and they really get the leather clean.

I would test them on a bit you cant see just in case, dont want to wreck anybodys car!!
