Zymol products all the way. I feel they are the finest quality in the world unless someone can prove to me that there's something better.

Interesting comment, many years ago the founder of Leathereqi, myself and Judy Bass of LTT had a very similar discussion.
Be cognizant that a water emulsion has a larger molecular size than water and may not be able to permeate the micro pores of the urethane covering



a) Water-resistant: able to resist the penetration of water to some degree but not entirely.
b) Water-repellent: not easily penetrated by water, especially as a result of being treated for such a purpose with a surface coating.
c) Waterproof: impervious to water

I think (b) is the most appropriate for modern automobile upholstery

Any concerns about using these products on perforated leather? How about white stitching?
I have always wondered how much leather is actually there on the 'standard' leather package. Feels much more like vinyl than soft leather.

Thanks!
