    Keeping Storm Grey leather clean?

    Hi all,

    Anyone have recommendations on best way of keeping the light coloured Storm Grey / Gray leather clean?

    Whether protective products or good cleaners.

    Feedback on how marked it gets over time would be great as well.

    Cheers.

    A family member uses Oakwood products in their car detailing business
    I use it too, and works well, though I have always had black leather

    I have used AutoGlyn leather cleaner and then conditioner on my 8 Corn Silk Beige and 1 Storm Grey VW seats obverse the last 12 years and very happy with results if done every 6 -9 months

    Trick is to leave the conditioner dry well before buffing and then 24 hours before using

    Thanks for info

    Guessing you havent bothered with any of the dealer/detailer Polymer based products?

    As far as I can work out, they're not really any different in outcome to just regularly cleaning and conditioning.

    And one last Q, do those products give a matte finish or shiny? I'm thinking matte is what I want.

    A little bit of a shine for a few days till you use it and it wears off Leather has a natural sheen anyway

    Matte would look horrible Like you havent cleaned them

    I also have a grey interior and have been using this stuff Gyeon Q2 Leather Coat 400mL | Car Care Products Australia
    Maintenance is just a vacuum and wipe down with a damp cloth. Reapply 6 to 9 monthly keeps it spotless and fresh.
