    Hi everybody,

    Just interested to know which 'leather cleaner' you use, i have crema in my 355 which is in good shape but would benefit from a clean, any suggestions?

    Cheers Anthony

    I've used the Autoglym Leather cleaner in the past, I have got some Zymol but not tried it yet.

    Autoglym is the best I have used, just be gentle if there is ingrained dirt, agitate with a soft brush or sponge and be sure to remove all the product.

    Same as Steve - soapy water (dove soap recommended by my mechanic something about it not being so harsh) followed by conditioner - using glyptone liquid leather, nice leathery smell too

    Is GLL a conditioner? I thought that put on another layer of colour rather than provide a feed to the leather.

    Ken,

    I believe its a conditioner see the below link - it certainly says it on the front of the bottle, which is visible in the photo

    Ah, that is a different product which, as you say, has conditioner on the bottle. Liquid Leather is another product by the same company which I doubt could be used as a conditioner as it is designed for refurbishment.
