Anyone else use detailing products around the house?

We bought two Barcelona chairs at an Estate Sale today. No, not original Mies van der Rohe made by Knoll, I wish! That would be worth thousands! These are knock offs but from the 50-60's so still very nice.

I first cleaned the chrome with Poorboy World's APC 10:1. Then used PS21 metal soap polish. Followed by Collinite Metal Wax.

The leather was cleaned with Lexol cleaner and then treated with Four Star Leather Conditioner.

Before. See pitting:

I was not able to eliminate the pitting and scratches but I did improve the look and added protection to prevent more damage.

Before cleaning:

After cleaning, polishing, waxing and conditioning:

Now I have to do the same to the matching chair! One down, one to go!

I use megs glass cleaner and apc all the time around the house. leather cleaners and conditioners help a lot also.

ONR is great for cleaning exterior windows with a squeege and they seem to stay cleaner longer--perhaps there are some polymers that are left behind.

Sure. Poorboy's Spray & Wipe is used all over our house. Prescription glasses, laptop screens, LCD TV's, Plasma TV's, kitchen counters............the list is almost endless.

Oh yea. Apc for the carpets. I use the Rain X glass cleaner with the repellent on the outside windows. Haven't got around to using polish in the shower yet, but it is coming.

Looks great.

ONR has made "I don't do windows" an unwarranted refrain.
