Over-indulge your leather!
Perhaps the most trusted, reputable name in the leather industry, Wimbledon-based Connolly Leather has gifted leather owners with a magic potion to prevent the aging and deterioration of leather. Hide Care Leather Conditioner restores leather’s essential moisturizers and protectants in a creamy emulsion of lanolin, white spirit, and natural oils restoring and maintaining the original beauty. Furthermore, Hide Care Leather Conditioner is properly pH balanced to offset the natural alkalinity of leather, and keep it healthy.
Since 1878 Connolly Leather has been at the forefront of the leather industry, supplying superior quality leather to some of the most sought after automotive companies. Jaguar, Ferrari, Bentley and Rolls Royce consider Connolly leather to be the only acceptable leather for their cars. Connolly Leather also graces the seats and interiors of many luxury liners, the British House of Commons and the House of Lords, and the Concorde, when it was still flying. To reach that pinnacle of excellence and maintain it, Connolly Leather had to develop a care regimen that would complement and keep healthy the regal leather for years. So, they developed concentrated Connolly Leather Cleaner and Connolly Hide Care Leather Conditioner, which will without a doubt, maintain, moisturize and protect your leather, thereby extending its life.
Neglected leather will shortly give away its status: Hardening, brittleness, cracking, dryness, fading… the list of traumas goes on. How to avoid this demise? A regular program of cleaning, and more importantly, conditioning will keep the surface as lush and satiny-soft as the day it was born.
Treat your leather as you would your own skin. A good, deep cleaning gentle cleanser like Connolly Leather Cleaner, followed by the best moisturizer to keep the fibers supple, flexible and strong is proper care. Connolly Hide Care provides all the nourishing ingredients required to keep the leather fibers pliable, soft and supple, as well as attractive to gaze upon. Hide Care Leather Conditioner is scientifically formulated to penetrate the porous leather and supply the necessary lubricants to keep it warm and inviting. A protective layer remains on the surface; an enduring “polish” that delivers a pleasing visual finish that begs to be touched.
For best results begin a monthly routine of cleaning first with Connolly Leather Cleaner to remove excess dirt and grease. Follow with a nourishing treatment of Connolly’s Hide Care Leather Conditioner formerly called Hide Food, before the FDA caught wind of it being called food). Apply the Hide Care sparingly with a soft cloth, foam or terry applicator or with your bare hands. Luxury car owners report that massaging the Hide Care into the leather with your hands produces the most satisfactory results. Hide Care needs to bask in the sun all day or absorb into the fibers all night to ensure complete permeation. Buff or wipe the entire surface to remove any excess product, then sit back and enjoy the distinguished luxury of your sensuous leather interior.
The Connolly Leather Care Kit comes with Connolly Leather Cleaner, Connolly Hide Care Leather Conditioner, an applicator pad and a microfiber detailing towel for finishing the job with a final buffing or wipe down.
Please Note: We import directly from Connolly of England. The green Hide Care label indicates a product directly from the manufacturer, guaranteed to be the freshest product available.
Connolly leather products are, and always have been, packaged with the green label with the Connolly Brothers logo. If you do not see Connolly on the label, it’s not genuine Connolly in the jar!

Clean and protect vinyl, rubber, and plastic in one step!
Lexol knew they were on to something when they created their Lexol Vinylexover twenty years ago. It cleans and renews any vinyl, rubber or plastic surface with a strong UV screen. It worked so well they patented their formula, and, though many have tried, they can’t duplicate the cleaning and protection of Lexol Vinylex.
Lexol Vinylex is a state-of-the-art protectant that combines cleaning, protection and beautifying properties in an easy to use one-step product. It actually penetrates below the surface layer to restore the underlying plasticizers. Of the five patents that govern silicone protectants, Vinylex carries two of them.
Lexol Vinylex will leave a clean, renewed surface without being too shiny and never oily. It maintains that appearance by preventing degradation due to environmental pollutants.
Lexol Vinylex is designed to be used on vinyl, rubber, and plastic as found on cars, boats, planes, and motorcycles, as well as other items around the home.

Did this car for a local forum member, and WOW it was terrible. I really didn’t think I would be able to do much with it, but it came out really nice.
This was my first time using Meguiars 105 - it has a bit of a learning curve to it, but once I got that down, I almost felt like I was cheating. It broke down almost instantly, removed most defects in 1 quick pass, and finished up super nice, especially for such a strong compound. What also surprised me was how effective this compound was with the Flex, as it is designed for rotary + wool only.
Process was as follows:
-Wash with P21S
-Clay with Wolfgang Elastic Poly Clay (went straight in the garbage afterwards!)
-Poorboy’s Spray & Rinse on wheels and tires
-Poorboy’s Bold ‘N Bright on tires
-Meguiar’s M105 Compound - Flex XC3401 w/yellow 6.5″ LC cutting pads
-Meguiar’s M80 Speed Glaze - Flex XC3401 w/green 6.5″ LC polishing/finishing pads
-Duragloss 105 Total Performance Polish - Flex XC3401 w/blue 6.5″ LC finishing pad
The car is a 1993, and the driver’s side was repainted at one point. Initially, the driver’s side looked better since it was newer and less oxidized/swirled, but after the job was done, the 16 year old paint on the passenger side looked better IMO.
After using M105, I switched to a green pad on used M80 Speed Glaze. 1 pass of each was used, but I did 2 passes on the roof since it was pretty bad.
Overall, I got 95% of the swirls out (a few remained on the roof), but I was very satisfied in how the car came out, as was the owner.
Here is what the car looked like when I received it:

How many times have you heard someone say, “I don’t do windows”? Many people postpone glass cleaning until it’s absolutely necessary, like when it’s almost too dirty to see through. Why? It’s often because they can’t reach the entire surface and therefore can’t clean it effectively. But cleaning the glass on your vehicle is for more than visual appeal; it improves your visibility of the road.
Glass cleaning doesn’t have to be a chore. The Glass Master Pro allows you to clean near and far without uncomfortable stretching or straining. Clean the bottom edge of your windshield all the way across from the driver’s seat! The triangular head cleans corners easily and pivots to clean sloped surfaces. Clean under glass-top tables without crawling under the table. Clean the top of tall bathroom mirrors without a step ladder. You can even clean floor to ceiling windows by just adding a pole to the handle of the Glass Master Pro.

Boar’s hair is naturally thick , sturdyand soft. It doesn’t fall limp when wet and it holds a tremendous amount of water,. These features make it the ideal paint-safe wash tool for fine finishes. The bristles easily release dirt into the wash bucket rather than rubbing it on the vehicle. And, because there are no nylon or other synthetic bristles, a boar’s hair brush will not scratch delicate surfaces, like clear coats, gel coats, glass, Plexiglas or fiberglass.
