I got samples of Four Star Leather cleaner, and leather conditioner (thanks Adde, and Strokin) a while ago, but only now had time to fully use them and write a review on both. I knew conditioner was going to be very similar to Wolfgang/Pinnacle series, and what I really wanted to try was their leather cleaner. First of all, it's a gel leather cleaner, it is just as thick as Wolfgang or Pinnacle gel wheel cleaner (but not as thick as DP) (still haven't tried 4* wheel cleaner), doens't have any odor/any chemical smell to it (Wolfgang, Pinnacle, and DP - all do (DP has a light chemical/banana smell, others are worse)). Now sure how other detailers look at it, but I am allergic to those chemical scents, that's why I'm looking for a product to have the least/no chemical smell...anyway, I sprayed it on directly on leather and let it sit there for a couple of minutes...just like any gel wheel cleaner - it doesn't run!!! I love it! It stays where you spray it!:righton: Interior was pretty dirty (my mom's 02 Infiniti I35), haven't cleaned it for the last 3 months...I used a brush to help loose some stubborn dirt (there was some), and wiped everything clean with a MF towel. I had to use 6 16''x16'' towels, thare was so much dirt. I also noticed that this is the first leather cleaner that seemed to soften leather while cleaning! Great product!!! $13 for 16 oz, can't beat that! 5 stars! Will I by more again - yes, and this time in 64 oz refills.
Like I mentioned before, leather conditioner was very similar to Wolfgang/Pinnacle series...to be exact it is thicker then Wolfgang, but not quite as thick as Pinnacle. I applied it with my bare hands (the only way to apply quality leather conditioners, but don't do it with cheap brands), and left it on while I was washing the car (30-40 minutes)...leather absorbed almost all conditioner, I wiped it the remaining and buffed it off. Leather felt much softer. 5 stars! $15 for 16 oz bottle you can't beat this value! It's the ultimate leather conditioner! Will I buy more again - yes, in 64 oz refills.
Both products are excellent, simply a hidden gem. I highly recommend both of them!
