Leather in a bottle

Has anyone tried this stuff? It is great! Made with real leather oil and makes your car smell fantastic! My Porsche buddy in LA told me about it so I ordered some and it really is the best IMO. Google leather in a bottle. Cost is $10.00 and $10.00 for shipping but it is worth it. Nick

They get the cow and feed it some hay, Go to the back of the cow, wring out the tail, and you get real leather oil! Nick

Apart from the great smell, does it condition & preserve the leather well?

I use it once a year in a car (2002) that has leather seats and they still look almost new.

Guys,

The whole point of the internet is the ability to use LINKS

Here is the LINK for this product:
Z-10 Leather in a Bottle: Zaino Store


I ordered it to see (well … smell).

Best,
Grady

Zaino products are fantastic- all of them.
However, for the older leather in my '87 I find that doing a once per year full Leatherique process treatment really nourishes the hide and keeps it extra supple. Takes a bit of work, but it's well worth it.

Here is a shot of both seats, the one on the left has been treated with Leatherique, the one on the right has not. Notice how much darker and richer it is:
