Booster Posted May 18, 2014 Report Share Posted May 18, 2014 What is the current favourite? Need to give the seats a treat! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cuprabob Posted May 18, 2014 Report Share Posted May 18, 2014 (edited) I'm still a fan of the Gliptone stuff Probably not rated by the detailing fraternity though. Edited May 18, 2014 by Cuprabob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milo Posted May 18, 2014 Report Share Posted May 18, 2014 I'm a big fan of Gliptone. It leaves a really natural leather smell and it doesn't leave the leather shiny like some products can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian_C Posted May 18, 2014 Report Share Posted May 18, 2014 Agreed on Gliptone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booster Posted May 18, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2014 Gliptone it is then! Cheers chaps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewNiceMrMe Posted May 18, 2014 Report Share Posted May 18, 2014 Why don't you use a local detailer? I'm surprised you haven't done that on the 6 series. Leave it all to them, you sit back and enjoy your time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waylander Posted May 18, 2014 Report Share Posted May 18, 2014 This is where we learn he meant seats in the anatomical sense - which brings a whole new perspective to "leather treatment" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booster Posted May 18, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2014 A valeter comes to the office once a week to do all the cars but every now and then I like to give it a clean myself. Bought a foam lance to use on the Q5 and it has got me back into the cleaning mood! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milo Posted May 18, 2014 Report Share Posted May 18, 2014 A valeter? How very 90s. It's all about detailing now 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tipex Posted May 18, 2014 Report Share Posted May 18, 2014 Detailer/valeter, exactly the same thing, one just thinks he's better than the other, ultimately, they both clean cars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiser647 Posted May 19, 2014 Report Share Posted May 19, 2014 My seats could probably do with a leather treatment, I doubt they've ever seen some. Will have to have a look at this Gliptone stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewNiceMrMe Posted May 20, 2014 Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 Detailer/valeter, exactly the same thing, one just thinks he's better than the other, ultimately, they both clean cars. Eh? There's a collosal difference, as is evidenced by cars that go to a 'valeter' and cars that go to a 'detailer'. Start with the swirl marks and go from there...

garcon magnifique Posted May 20, 2014 Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 Eh? There's a collosal difference... Usually a factor of ten on the price. A good detailer is well worth it though, if that's what you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tipex Posted May 20, 2014 Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 It depends what you pay for, I can pay my valeter to do anything a detailer will do, and he's just as good. The only difference is a detailer tends not to do the cheap weekly wash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
