We just shot a video using a two step approach for cleaning, conditioning and protecting leather and a one-step approach for cleaning, conditioning and protecting leather and all products worked excellent without leaving any kind of greasy, or shiny finish.

For the two-step approach we used the Pinnacle Leather & Vinyl Cleaner (http://www.autogeek.net/pinrubvincle.html) and the Pinnacle Leather Conditioner (http://www.autogeek.net/pinleatcon.html) . The Leather and Vinyl Cleaner is safe enough for use on both leather and vinyl and the leather conditioner can be used on both leather and vinyl, because often times an interior will be a combination of both materials these two products and even the one below are safe for any leather interior.

For the one-step approach we used the and also the one-step spray, Pinnacle Leather Cleaner & Conditioner (http://www.autogeek.net/pileclco.html)


These products are water based, VOC compliant. They contain no petroleum distillates or solvents so they won't dry out the leather or the stitching. They also won't leave a greasy, or slick surface behind. Clicking on the links will take you to specifics about each product.

I'm with the owners on the appearance of leather, even blue and yellow leather, I wouldn't want it to be slippery or have an artificial shine, I would want it to be cleaned, conditioned and protected on a regular basis as part of a maintenance program just like the drivetrain is maintained, especially any surface that are touched by human skin, like arm rests, the steering wheel and the face of the lower seat cushion where skin can touch if a person is wearing shorts or if a lady is wearing a skirt or dress.

Your body emits perspiration which is oils, acids and salts and this can cause staining and dirt build-up over time.

Nothing builds a good name like honest, hard work and lots of it...

Success never comes easy, it comes from paying you dues for years and sticking with one thing that you have a passion for...

You're doing a great job by the way!
