What the best leather treatment?
Hey guys,

I'm looking to do a leather treatment (black) on my 507, and wanted to get some input on what the best product and method is.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Cheers

I like the Auto Glym leather conditioner. Doesn't leave a residue or shine, just looks great and matte and keeps the leather supple.

I must give that one a try.
I'm currently using Maguiars Gold leather conditioner, and it seems to work nicely.

Leatherique is also very good. That is currently what I am using and love it. https://www.amazon.com/Leatherique-R.../dp/B0002SPCBW. Also you if you use your hands to really rub it in, you get special bonding time with your car .

Hmm, why not just go with the original Mercedes-Benz one?

Leather Masters kit is the best stuff Ive used. Strong cleaner, Leather vital, and protection cream. Follow the instructions. I did it 2x a year on my S4.. Car fetched 4k more than it should have on private sale. I had the car since new for 4.5 years. Leather looked like it was never sat in. 60k miles.

I use Leather Masters products as well. Awesome lineup and definitely way more effortless than Leatherique.
