Nappa Leather Cleaner

[rsumasar]

Hey Guys, brand new to the forum. Just got a 2009 CPO x6 35i..love it ...it has the nappa leather option. Never owned a car with nappa leather before and was browsing through some other sites as well, and never really got a definitive answer. What do you guys recommend for cleaning/conditioning the nappa leather on the x? In my previous cars ive used Lexol Mothers etc..

thanks guys

To be honest, I use leather cleaner wipes I originally purchased to clean my couches, lol. The wipes I have been using seem to work just fine, as the interior of my car looks the same as the day I picked her up over 3 years ago... except for the minor srcatches on my brushed aluminum trim (damn car wash attendees)

I will get the name of the leather wipes for you later on during the week if you wanna try that brand out because the container is in the closet with the rest of the cleaning supplies.

P.S. : i have no problem with car wash attendees because they work hard to keep my baby clean when it's cold outside... I just wish they would be a little more cautios with those vaccum hoses

I don't have Nappa, but use Lexol on all my leather seating home and car with great results.

Bought the original leather cleaner + conditioner from BMW. I've heard they are great.

I've tried and used a lot of leather cleaners and the best I've found is by Swissvax.

Not the cheapest stuff but is a preofessional product along with everyhting Swissvax use.
