Everyone....
I bought some Lexol cleaner and condition at pepboys this week. They have the bottles for 7.99. Apparently, the conditions sells out quickly. I found the last bottle left in a different department. I chose Lexol based upon recommendations from carcareonline and from other detail sites. I couldn't wait for the next Zaino groupby too.
So here goes the review.
I have a 2 month old 2002 911, with 700 miles and full black interior. Which means full leather dash, seats, door panels and center console. I'm most critical about the wrinkles on my seat bosters, which have wrinkles visible when looking at the seat from the doorway.
I applied the cleaner, as directed on a 4inch by 2 foot rag, folded into 4inchx4inch square. I took the rag, damped it and wrung out. Took three squirts of the cleaner. I wiped it onto the doorand was able to get a low lather, nothing more than small foaming that disipates quickly. I had to use another two squirts for the drivers seat. I wiped it off with a lightly damp cloth. It dries quickly to a flat medium grey color. For reference, the passengers seat looks like a dark grey color.
I waited about 5 minutes until everything was dry, then applied the conditioner with another cloth. This went on dark, about two full squirts for the door panel and about 4 squirts for the drivers seat, front and back. Applying first to the bolsters, where I wanted to give amply treatment.
The seats were dark black and glossy. I waited about an hour before coming back to the car...by now the gloss was gone, and a wipe with a dry cloth only evened out some glossy streaks.
In comparison with the passengers seat, it is now a dark black vs. dark grey. I'm happy most of all because the wrinkles are less evident from the drivers door...to see the defined lines, you have to stick your nose 6 inches from the seat. The faintest of lines appear where there was strong wrinkles. The door panel too is darker than the passenger door, but no wrinkles were present before.
I'm initially happy with lexol.
