I cleaned the leather up in my Golf yesterday and I'm so impressed with the results I thought I'd share them here.

I used Gliptone Leather Cleaner and Conditioner which is a 2 part process.

I followed the instructions on the bottles and here are the results of an hours work!

Before, the leather was very shiney and a bit grubby with spilt milk on the rear set along with a few marks here and there.

You car clearly see despite the bad pics that the leather has a much more natural matte look to it now. What you can't get from the pics is that the leather is much more supple to the touch and the smell is fantastic! No really, it is! The car is filled with the fantastic smell of old English leather.

I guess I'll have to do the V70 now ;)

Yes this stuff is very good ,I found the the conditioner needs a day or two to soak into the leather.
