Cleaning the Leather: Zanio or Lexol?

I'd like to hear from some people who have used both if possible...

Just want to hear the pros and cons (if any) for both products...


Thanks!

I've used both. Zanio and Lexol are both near the top end of cleaners for leather. I'm currently using Lexol simply because it's easier to find local.

As far as using and reusing, I've found Lexol to be the least "complicated" of the two to use as far as instructions and application. I feel the end result between the two is so close as to be a wash.

Never fear, Jedi is here!!! Did someone say Zaino???

I haven't used Lexol but I have been known to break out the Zaino from time to time.
Zaino leather cleaner is awesome stuff, you simply can't go wrong with it.

little know fact: Jedi get's 5 cents every time he mentions Zaino on the boards. By my count he's made $2,345,204.45 this week.
