I wiped the entire interior down with QID prior to applying another coat. So I can't say how good the cleaning ability is.

It's shiny when first applied. But like any conditioner following up with a microfiber to remove any excess product is recommended. The shine will be knocked down to a matte like sheen.

I can tell it is there not by just the look but by the way it feels as well. Not shiny in my opinion.

Don't expect the interior to retain the scent. The scent fades rather quickly.

Sorry to hear that. Your experience was much different than mine.

Anyone knows how this compares against Swissvax's Leather Cleaner/Leather Milk?

Expect about a month out of it. It's pretty good. I ended up using 3D liquid leather after that and I need give this another go. 3D liquid leather was gone in a couple weeks. I would not recommend that one. I had high hopes for it.
I actually prefer the leather sealer from the Meguiar's gold class leather sealer system over the leather balm.

Re: Review - Meguiar's Ultimate Leather Balm
Balms, waxes, oios etc should all be avoided on finished chrome tanned leather as they are counter productive. As you can see they sit on the surface of the leather where they attract more dirt which is what we are trying to avoid.
Conditioners do not protect the leather which is what is needed to prevent dirt build up and abrasion
Hope this helps

Today I saw two packs of the Gold Class system on clearance for $1.99. I might go back and get it. Would it make a noticeable difference on a 2015 Honda with leather? It's real leather but coated (haha to the point that it looks like vinyl to me, but it's not). Or should i just stick to an interior detail product I have on hand?

Don't know what you have on hand but the Gold Class Leather Sealer treatment is a great product. Works great on coated leather.

Does the balm have that nice fresh leather smell?
