It is still something you need to maintain and is time consuming, but it works.
Positive !
Leatherique is (still) the best product out there ..

Leatherique is a great product, I would recommend it. I left an e60 steering wheel in a bag covered in it and forgot about it for about a month, it came out looking brand new

Gyeon leather cleaner works really well. Just make sure you apply it on the sponge or whatever you will be using to clean the interior and not directly on the leather surface.

I've used the Leatherique for years and it's been fantastic, but I would also highly recommend Zaino's leather care products. He's got a leather cleaner and a conditioner, and they both smell like leather. You come back the next morning after cleaning your seats and your whole car smells like fine leather. It's really great stuff!

Alright, so my brief review of the Swissvax cleaner and conditioner. To sum it up, I definitely did not like the cleaner. I used Colourlock's brush for the big open areas and a detail brush to get into the tight areas. For the driver seat, I used the cleaner twice. My passenger seat was already pretty matte looking to begin with.

Here is my seats before anything, there is probably some Chemical Guys conditioner on there. (Ignore the cloth portion, I did not bother cleaning it yet.



Seats after using cleaner - you can tell it barely did anything (driver seat done twice).



Leather Milk applied, used a fresh pad, you can see there's still dirt on the seats.



After 4 hours:



After 24 hours since application:



After 48 hours since application:



I didn't buff the conditioner out at all but I did drive it a few times after 4 hours of letting it soak in. I think the conditioner worked pretty good and left it with a nice matte finish. I might've used too much on my driver seat. Maybe if your seats aren't too dirty/oily the cleaner would work but if you want a deeper clean don't use the Swissvax cleaner. I'm up for trying Leatherique for sure. Or maybe a stronger cleaner + the leather milk.

I bought two of these rejuvenators because I can. Looking forward to using it this summer.
