Swissvax Leather Cleaner

MilM4 · 10-05-2015, 05:48 AM

Hello fellow forum members,

In preparation for the Jan 2016 delivery of my M4, I've been putting together a list of aftermarket parts, cleaners, etc. I started thinking about a good wax for the car and remembered E46 M3 forum members promoting Swissvax years ago. So I checked out their website to put together my cleaning/waxing kit, when I noticed they have car leather cleaners. The leather car kit (forte) sounds like the perfect product; however, I want to ask if any forum members have tried this kit and if so, please provide feedback about the product.

Swissvax makes great products. Since it is a new car I would not recommend their forte cleaner as that is made for removing heavy soiling. Stick with the normal cleaner as it is much less aggressive. Go ahead and protect the leather with either elephant fat or leather milk if you plan to stay with all SV

I would highly recommend checking out the Dr. Beasleys leather care line as well

I have always used the stuff when I had my Imola leather in my e46 m3 and it would make that leather look showroom ready. It can be some pretty tough stuff so test it in a non conspicuous area first. Definitely use the leather milk and let it sit for 24 hours with the windows cracked. Then boom... beauty
