I had a quick search but didn't really find much.

My seats are getting worse by the day. The leathers all cracking and some patches have faded slightly.

So I was wondering what does everybody use on the leather to keep it tip top. Never bought leather care before...

I heard gliptone is good but can only find the cleaner and conditioner which seem good but i think I need some form of feeder or die?

Thanks guys

+1, this stuff is brilliant and it sounds like leather care is too late for you, these guys are great for repairs and bringing your leather back from the dead.

I'm not sure if you can get it over there but Ge-Wy is the very best in leather dressings.

Apologies for bumping an old(ish) thread, but did you ever get round to using this stuff?

My bolster is starting to wear and could do with some protection.

Is there any stuff that can treat the leather too (rather than just cover up) or does the gliptone take care of that aswell??
