I was in Walmart shopping. Yes, I LOVE to shop at Walmart. They have excellent deals on contact solution, motor oil, household cleaners, etc so I dont care what anyone says. The market now as it is, saving a dollar here and a dollar there helps even though it ends up in my car at the end anyway

A couple years ago, I was too lazy to go to pep boys and was in walmart shopping for household items. I passed by the auto dept and saw some 3M cleaners and waxes. It was a few dollars cheaper than pep boys and autozone. I ended up saving about $20 for just my detailing stuff at Walmart. I wanted to buy a leather cleaner and conditioner but I was unable to find something decent and I did not want to wait for something online. The auto dept in Walmart had the regular megauirs, and similar brands. I dont use that stuff. I ended up in the household section and found this stuff called Leather CPR. This stuff's excellent. It can actually bring leather back to life. A can of this stuff is about $10 and is definitely well worth it. You will feel results INSTANTLY.

What is the finish like--shiny, matte, slick, etc.? Does it make the leather more supple? Thanks.

i have black leather. the color of the liquid paste is kinda whitish beigeish. makes the leather VERY supple. u should wait for the stuff to dry before sitting on it. after it dries, it is not sticky. i feels 100% clean and smooth and soft. not those regular meguairs nasty leather conditioner/cleaner. it feels how leather seats should feel. It's only $10 for a small can. go to walmart and get some and try it. u wont regret it. i use it even for my leather sofa at home. now bear in mind, my leather sofa is approx 20 years old french made buffalo leather. makes it amazingly smooth and soft as well.
