A nice evening for a collection...

If you ever eBay this car, promise me you'll use this as the main photo in the listing

That all depends on if I ever sell the old sod... if I do, there may be a photo like this, complete with pissed off basset hound in the back window.

 

Spent a happy couple of hours in the drizzle cleaning up the seats this morning.

Via this fantastic stuff

I think it's going to take a few more goes yet, but I can't recommend the liquid leather stuff enough- its really made a difference to how soft the leather feels and looks a bit less shiny too.

 

In the absence of a bucket shot, have an applicator pad shot

Nice work all round. They look like Wilko's cleaning pads. I went through 5 when cleaned my and the partner's cars.

They came with the cleaner tbh, done a decent enough job even if they need a Viking funeral afterwards!

 

The amount of stale fag smoke and nicotine that's coming out of the interior is incredible- almost enough to make me think the first owner actually smoked a pipe... the works rug doctor is getting some hammer, that's for sure!

Did you get the leather cleaner as a kit? If so were and how much?

It was 17.99 from Amazon, came with 2 microfibre cloths and 2 applicator pads:

Easy enough to use- wipe down with a damp cloth and apply the cleaner- agitate with a soft brush (applicator pad in my case) and leave for 5 minutes, then wipe off with a damp cloth.

 

The conditioner just goes on sparingly afterwards and let dry. Took about an hour all in, probably going to apply more conditioner tomorrow.
