Can the Lexol leather seat car wipes be used to for a Wested lamb?

Yes, no problem.

Lexol products were some of the very first we tested and used on our gear, and has been the main stay for many here. It's perfect for lambskin.

It cleans and conditions the tight-pored lambskin.

So now I know how to safely remove that dried ice cream from my ice cream store adventures... :wink:
---really though, that makes sense about the wipes, and I never knew that before.

I take it that Lexol products would also be ideal for Todds standard jacket?

All Lexol products are fine products for leather care, regardless of brand.

Until we discovered Pecards, it was all we used (when we couldn't lay our hands on Letaps.) :wink:

Is there any particular type of Lexol product that would be best to use? And where can I purchase Lexol products?

Any of the leather products are fine, as they were developed for use on car leather interiors. Just read the bottles as to what application they're formulated to do.

You can find them at just about any auto parts stores.

I just want to say that I always agree with my friend Michaelson…..

I have been using Lexol on My ToD Lamb Wested for 8 years. It works great.
I buy mine at the local Tack store because it’s less expensive there than at the auto parts place.

I've used Lexol lotion on my goalie pads for years…though its been just as long since I've played and used it…I used to get it at the hockey store I worked at. Great for breaking in skates too.

I have used Lexol for many years on leather automobile upholstery. Car seats, particularly those in convertibles, are tanned and treated in order to be more resistant to moisture than are most interior home upholstery skins. As Michaelson pointed out above, it works well on lambskin which is "tighter" than some other leathers. I have been using it on my USW lambskin and a Cooper goat A-2 (it really helps loosen up goat hide quickly without making it look different or darker) and it really helps with making them more supple as well as rain resistant. Lexol also makes a cleaner to be used prior to the treatment. I have found it to be milder as well as easier to use than saddle soap.
You can generally find Lexol products at tack shops (saddles and related equipment), automotive supply stores and old fashioned hardware stores.
