Hi folks

just wondering if there is anything special if I clean the interior of my S3C with leather option (I assume that this is real leather even it does not smell like leather.

Are there especially good products for this?

Have a good week!

Timewind,

So you finally bought an S. Is it LHD or RHD?
I recommend the products from Colourlock, that you can order from Lederzentrum. I used their set on my S3c. My driver seat was brown instead of tan and I cleaned it with the following system. 2-3 drops of leather cleaner on their soft sponge. "Pump and release" the sponge until it creates foam. Put this foam on the seat and clean small area with soft (!!) toothbrush.
It might take one evening to clean just one seat, but the result is worth it. The day after you can nurish the leather with their milk.
Yes I know - German product for British Leathercare, but it seems to work.

Cheers
Patrick

Yes, bought it week before last week. It is good fun, good condition overall just a little bit makeup needed in the interior. Thanks for the tip, I will try this german product in a Swiss-based english car (really confusing mixture!).

For one of the best leather care products, I use Gliptone Liquid Leather ( Manchester ). You will see this advetized in all the Classic car mags.

For about £12 you get a pH neutral cleaner which must be used first to remove all the crap you have previously put on the leather. It is simply wiped off with a damp cloth, and the leather goes matt.

then you apply the Conditioner which again must be pH neutral. This Glipton stuff has that wonderful Rolls Royce smell in it as well! and it works!

Ring Glipton on 0161 8328532 use your card and within a couple of days its through the post.
