Soon be out of my leather cleaner - usually get mine from LTT but just before i do again just seeing what everyone else uses? anyone have a different favourite leather cleaner? have heard rumours on here of another fantastic leather cleaner but the name of it wasnt forthcoming on the other post even though it was aked for many times!
-
Jason, you can ask 3 or 50 times the answer is the same.
Yes there is a new cleaner but it is not openly available.
LTT's strong cleaner is very good and will do what you need.
-
aha - Mr Moss again!! and you now have a profile picture!! that took me by surprise!! it almost jumps out the screen at you!
-
:)
-
I wouldn't look beyond LTT and you can always get tips from Andy Alcock if you have a problem job.
-
turns out Mr Moss that i can indeed join your exclusive club! your supplier contacted me by PM! delivery time is a pain though and i appreciate the support from LTT so think maybe best to stick with what i know.
Anyone used their maxi cleaner or alchohol cleaner on dye transfer and with what sort of results?
-
I found maxi cleaner to be no different than any other cleaners I have used, if it's bad you may need special sponge but it really needs training to use as I have taken finish off with one so there is a technique to it.

Hi Jason
The only time I use LTT maxi cleaner is for dye transfer, usually get good results.
I use gloves though as the first time I used it I got a reaction.

...... I got a reaction.
Is it just me or did anyone else have to read that bit twice? ;D ;D
-
;D
Shaun
-
;D............I meant to say skin reaction
-
It's getting worse :o
Shaun
-
lol, i am getting me some maxi - sounds better than viagra!! :P
anyone tried the alchohol cleaner? - LTT said good as a last resort on dye if maxi fails and would be last attempt before resigning to restore and colour
-
You can get some good creams fore skin reactions now :D :D
-
If you use too much alcohol then you may take the top coat finish from leather providing it is pigmented.

Actually Jason it turns out that you can't join the exclusive club as I decide who can :)
The supplier would not contact you as they are not directly linked to our industy and they certainly do not use any forums.
Also you cant pm on this forum.
Regarding delivery times, I can phone the order through and have it delivered next day :)
-
Paul is the cleaner going to be on open sale or just to members?
Shaun
-
So there's a fantastic new leather cleaner out there but only a select few
can have it???
Why bother mentioning it in the first place then.
Doesn't make sales sense anyway, surely they want it out there on sale
so they can make a profit?
Or is it just a myth.

Dont see the point either bumming on about some new magic leather cleaner then not telling anybody what it is now its only a few of your bum boys who are allowed to use it.
-
He might be building up demand by making it super desirable.
-
Speciality cleaners are Pauls forte.
Shaun

well someones telling porkies then and it can only be one of 2 people! i had an email from 'someone' claiming to be the person supplying Paul and offering me the same product.
after speaking to LTT i'll stick with them, they offer top support and products (IMO!.)
they also dont recommend using microfibre sponges etc as Paul does and to be honest i have to agree - dont mean to offend Paul, but some of your 'practices' dont sound the sort to be recommended!
and i agree with others, why come on a forum Paul going on about some fantastic new leather cleaner and then telling everyone they arent able to know what it is!! ::)
-
You seem to be keeping it a secret yourself New Look ;)
-
not a secret at all - the person who contacted me was called Roger Koh - he sent me a link to a leather forum which is -
Roger told me this was the source of the solution Paul was on about. I had a look but was baffled by the aray of products. I did some digging and found the products are in Canada and take 4-8 weeks delivery and they werent recommended - but please make up your own minds!!
-
Link doesn't work.
I have some of Rogers stuff but haven't had anything troublesone to try it on yet, the general professional clean workd well for me which I buy from Ben at Furniture Clinic, LTT also have some great stuff and problem solvers but I find Ben's cheaper and does the same for me but I am always open to better products.

sorry - link being blocked - fair enough really!
just google for leather cleaning forum and its normally the first that comes up - if its got Roger Koh posting all over it you have the right one!

Shaun no its not openly available.
Jason If Roger has emailed you telling you that he is the supplier then that is naughty as he is not the supplier.
Regarding some of my cleaning practices neither you nor LTT have any knowledge of my cleaning practices so I suggest you keep your remarks to yourself Jason.
-
thing is Paul, you post about your cleaning practices so its no secret!!!
if you dont want comments or feedback - dont post!! as the meerkat says - simples!!!
-
Shaun, i had a look at furniture clinic and cant see they are any cheaper than LTT on the cleaners, just a few quid cheaper on the p&p??
-
Going from memory I'm sure that FC do a trade price as do LTT, call them to check first though.
Just had a look on LTT's site and they do some really good problem solvers I do like them for that the training is top quality also, myself and Mike H went to train on an aniline and they made the job look easy although it put the kibosh on my cleaning of any as I have never been asked to clean or renovate one since.
BTW anyone know how Andy is?
Shaun
-
Judy says he is back at work which is good news, hope he progresses well - best wishes to them
-
Really pleased to hear that. Andy's a real gent and has all the knowledge you'll ever need to tap into in leather repair / restoration.

Was talking to him on the phone last Friday 15th. He seems to be doing pretty well
