Clean your Leather <D180> Review with pictures

[Cosmin]

When comes to cleaning leather the only thing i use on leather is D180 ( read : no steamer, no apc or any other things/cleaners )

D180 is meguiar`s leather cleaner conditioner. for public can be purchase in sample of 12 oz around 7$ , or in gallon for more / detailer use.
one seat should take between 5 minutes up to 20 minutes (when soiled)
Depends how bad the leather condition is i do one or 2 applications for cleaning and the 3rd one for "conditioner" where the product is light wipe.
i use it with a soft brush (1in and half , soft-hair) i apply the product on the brush and i work the seat strategic , in steps. u agitate the product to make sure goes anywhere on seat surface and wipe with mf towel.
- when use with the brush keep on eye on any splater , if use too much product, wipe any splater from leather, try don`t leave it too long, has cleaning agents.
- always wipe with mf towel so the leather is even covered.
- once u start you wanna do the whole seat/ interior seats , if not will be visible difference
- the product has a light learning curve but once u use it it should be easy on/off , just wipe the excess to even the application if not the excess it may be visible too shiny.
- when first applied on seats it may look greasy at the momment you work the paste , but after 1-2 hours the finish is natural , and nice to touch , gives a light shine of the leather but not any extreme glare.
that`s my experience with D180, very affordable , safe on leather ,good working time , quality results.
i use it on different vehicles , color , and very soft leather

Nice Write up. How did it do on Benz and BMW red leather. I find that even mild leather cleaners with cause color to come off

if you apply too much product and you let it sit for too long , you have chances to get the color off, also if you apply too much pressure on the towel when you wipe off, you have chance to get color off.
as far as you are aware of this things , you shouldn`t have problems with it.
