If you're planning on regularly maintaining the leather yourself, you can't go past the Leather Clean & Feed from Final Inspection (http://www.finalinspection.com.au). Also check out the detail addiction forums for more info on application and such:

1 x Duragloss Professional Leather System $49.95
1 x Duragloss Paint Protection Pack $74.95
1 x Duragloss Car Wash Concentrate (473ml) $15.95
1 x Mint Microfibre Drying Towel Waffle Weave X-Large (Single) $29.95
Items $170.80


Bought these today. are they good buy? I am waiting for a sunny day to apply them. it's been raining lately.

there was a pack for swiss or something but it cost $125 just for the leather system pack. But the sales say duragloss is enough.

Any of you uses Duragloss?

Try a place called Birdsall Leather & Crafts in Botany... They should be able to supply you with all sorts of good leather cleaning products etc.

Have tried a few automotive leather cleaning products, but haven't found them to be very good... Subaru supplied stuff is pretty crap as well, ask Mr Senator about that :P

Subaru Branded stuff is made by Autoglym……. Its dried my leather out and caused stretch marks

Blacknwhite on this forum told me about Zanio, its saved my leather, no more marks, leather is soft.
Not a soobi anymore, but still slightly dirty
