I have been very satisfied with this product for over 30 years. During the short time the product was not available I tried many different brands and none were as good.
Joe Van Seeters –
One of my favorite interior detailing and interior protection products back in the 1980’s and 1990’s. I always enjoyed the look and scent that provided a nice refresh/clean to the interior. I am still of the “old school” so to speak when it comes to detailing. We didn’t have the thousands of products available now days which is sometimes difficult to sift through all the choices. This product has been around for DECADES which shows it’s a great product that continues to be one of the best interior detailers for the interior in my opinion. Think along the lines of 303 Aerospace Protectant but with a better scent. One of my “go to” interior detailing products along with their companion product, Leather, Vinyl, Rubber CLEANER, they work well as a “duo” for keeping your interior looking fresh and new for the life of your automobile. The mink oil infused product will keep your leather fresh and hydrated also. Both the cleaner and this product have the mink oil infused which helps from keeping the vinyl, leather, and rubber seals soft, supple, hydrated, and retards the degradation and wear of the surface you are treating over time. All vinyl and leather need to be cleaned regularly and hydrated with a product like this helping to keep the surfaces in “like new” condition. It’s not hard to maintain your interiors when you have great products like these to help you easily keep your interiors clean and fresh smelling. While the scent dissipates, the smell you get from the cleaning and conditioning process leaves the interior with a fresh, clean, and conditioned appearance. A lot of people swear that you don’t need to condition your leather, not realizing, that YOU DO need to keep the leather and vinyl surfaces clean and conditioned with a product like this. While true, 95% of all leather in automobiles today are coated leather with a flexible, breathable top coating to protect the leather for the first few years you own your automobile. That coating needs to be kept in a hydrated condition, hence the term “CONDITION”, no so much as the old days when you needed to care and condition your cars uncoated and natural leather (which, like today, costs far more than a cloth interior) it was important to regularly clean it and feed the leather with a oil based such as mink, lanolin, and other natural oils, it is just as important with today’s coated leathers, which will lose that coating over time due to regular wear and tear from driving your vehicle. Typically, around three years of normal daily use is when many of the dedicated leather care product companies say you should start treating your modern leather or vinyl (also known today as “VEGAN” leather), differently than you do when your car is brand new and has that fresh flexible top coat sprayed from the factory to help maintain the integrity of the leather/vinyl and assist with keeping it in good working order. This is when it becomes even more important to hydrate your leather after a proper cleaning stage before you condition or treat your leather vinyl surfaces inside the cabin. Many supposedly “leather” interiors are actually a combination of leathers and vinyl (man made leather). Many cars use both to make seats, with the actual leather being just the seating surface, then using VINYL or man made leathers to finish construction of the seat in order to save them from using all leather which is much more expensive. Coatings do help, however, they also need to be cleaned, hydrated, and maintained. Many products like this product also contain UV blocking agents to help retard sun damage which also degrades, and takes moisture out of the leather/vinyl over time. If you live in an alpine, or arid climate, that too can dry out the leather and vinyl. Regular maintenance is fairly easy to do at home on a weekend or day off and if you maintain your leather/vinyl from day one of owning your car, your leather/vinyl should remain in like new condition for the life of your vehicle. I like doing my own vehicles about four times per year, with planned, quarterly maintenance/cleaning sessions. Again, four times per year, and your leather/vinyl should look and feel just like the day you bought your automobile. Liquid glass cleaner and conditioner are both great products along with their Liquid Glass sealant for exterior paint which is also another really great product from the folks at Liquid Glass. Liquid Glass is one of my favorite sealants and gives great durability and gloss to the paintwork along with durable protection against many of the contaminants on the road surfaces today along with great UV protection for your paintwork. It holds up well in the winter time against all the road salts and chemicals and provides that “glass” like look to the paint with incredible gloss and slickness. If you have never tried any of the Liquid Glass line up, you owe it to yourself to give them a try! They are old school products that actually WORK. Which is why they have stood the test of time as great automobile maintenance and care products. Thank you Liquid Glass for keeping the old school products in production and giving us old school detailers familiar products to use.
