I personally use a steam cleaner, you will never get anything better for leather, cleans amazing and give leather the two main things to keep it good, moisture and heat.
If product wise Glipton stuff is good, products from Dr Leather is amazing an products from LTT are outstanding (but expensive).

Re: dodo juice or other?
I guess its all down to budget....but choosing Rainforrest Rub because your car is green and its a green wax, its more generic. If it was me, I would be more swayed towards a Pro wax, and in particular Purple Haze Pro, reason being your car is dark in colour, the pro will offer more protection and h...

Wheel arches was either done with the PW and using APC, then Tardis and Iron X, but then once cleaned i used Chemical Guys Bare Bones, really good product for this, gives a nice clean finish, darkens it again, and smells amazing :) As for the stone chips, this is one of the downfalls of machine poli...

Engine bay after cleaning with APC, used tardis on paint work and some Iron X as well. Dressed the plastics with Chemical Guys Silk Shine Trim Dressing and protected the paintwork with Dodo Juice Red Mist resulting in this..... http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v681/Robtur/VW%20Passat%20Syncro/9a713...
