Many seem to default to Gliptone's, others have championed Zaino's.
I'm sure there's others who would also throw in Zymöl and Swissvax into the mix.
There's one I've been meaning to try for a while now - as soon as I have, I'll mention it, if it's any good.

I think he means the hides themselves? If so get in touch, I can get you BMW Individual or Rolls-Royce Spec. hides at a price which might surprise you....

If indeed you meant cleaners and conditioners etc - I'd recommend Zaino Z-9 and Z-10, both are fantastic and the cleaner is by far the most effective I hav ever used and I have used a few!!

Contact me through private mail for details

Cheers - Nick.
