Re: IML: LEATHER TREATMENT



Hi Burt-
I have used Lexol Leather Cleaner and Lexol Leather Conditioner on my cars for years.  Recently, when I pulled the interior of my '60 Imperial out of the basement some surfaces were like cardboard.  I used the conditioner over a period of about two months and it brought the leather back to the point where I wasn't afraid it would shatter if somone sat on it.  It has a long way to go but actually you can reverse the aging process to a certain degree.  Depending on where you live regular treatment with Lexol should do the trick for you.  In Oregon, with the cars garaged, I use it about every six months.  In Las Vegas, sitting outside, I'd use it monthly.
Some members swear by Leatherique (Sp?) and in reading about that product it does look good - I just have no personal use of it.
 
Good Luck

The leather on the seats of my 1982 Imperial looks good but the leather is getting stiff and has cracked in a couple of places. I would be interested in Imperial Club members recommendations for a product that I can use to treat the leather to make it softer and more pliable. I probably can not reverse the aging process but maybe I can delay it. Thanks.
