Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

  • Keeping Storm Grey leather clean?

    Hi all,

    Anyone have recommendations on best way of keeping the light coloured Storm Grey / Gray leather clean?

    Whether protective products or good cleaners.

    Feedback on how marked it gets over time would be great as well.

    Cheers.

    I use it too, and works well, though I have always had black leather

      I have used AutoGlyn leather cleaner and then conditioner on my 8 Corn Silk Beige and 1 Storm Grey VW seats obverse the last 12 years and very happy with results if done every 6 -9 months

      Trick is to leave the conditioner dry well before buffing and then 24 hours before using

          Thanks for info

          Guessing you havent bothered with any of the dealer/detailer Polymer based products?

          As far as I can work out, they're not really any different in outcome to just regularly cleaning and conditioning.

          And one last Q, do those products give a matte finish or shiny? I'm thinking matte is what I want.

            A little bit of a shine for a few days till you use it and it wears off Leather has a natural sheen anyway

            Matte would look horrible Like you havent cleaned them

              I also have a grey interior and have been using this stuff Gyeon Q2 Leather Coat 400mL | Car Care Products Australia
              Maintenance is just a vacuum and wipe down with a damp cloth. Reapply 6 to 9 monthly keeps it spotless and fresh.
