Prestine is very good for cleaning vinyl and plastic, as well as leather. Love it.
Prestine does work really well on plastics/vinyl, pricey but worth it!

I've honestly never had good results with LExol regardless if the leather was in good or poor condition. I could never get the deep cleaning capabilities I do with Leatherique. Are there any tips or tricks that you know of to make it work? Sure would be nice to have an alternative that is priced well and is available everywhere.

You might want to ask about that before ordering.
Yes , they give you a P-car club discount 15% off I believe.

Sweet! Just joined PCA so this will make the Leatherique even more reasonable! Still hoping to get a few guys who want to buy, I'll post in the NE section.

Just went to the Leatherique site and they are running a special to buy 16 oz each of the rejuvinator oil and pristine clean for $35. Not bad considering they sell the oil only for $31.95 and the Pristine clean for another $22. I think I will be doing this soon.

That's a good look! That Leatherique is something else, makes you fall in love with her all over again. Nice detail job too, I know the water will just run away from the paint!!!

Yeah, you're right about cleaning. When I used Lexol conditioner in teh past it did a great job softening some cardboard hard leather that I don't think Leatherique could have done any better. In fact, I'm having a bit of trouble softening up some seats in a buddy's 90 S4 with Leatherique despite repeated treatments with saran wrap covering and left on for many days. I may try some Lexol. But the Lexol conditioner doesn't draw anything out of the leather. They have a separate cleaner.
